Just had a two day trip on the '85 K75C. Went east to west from Linc's to mid-wales coast. Did about 280 miles Wednesday and about 260 today. The bike went well apart from some odd behaviour after resuming my ride home with about 40 left to do (so had done until then about 500 miles over the two days before).
After restarting the bike after a stop that was maybe 35mins (so bike still warmish afterabout 120 miles since last comfort break_) the bike almost died at the junction and them at a few sloe bits thru a town where revs were about 2000 or less, seemed to stutter and going to not idle. Managed to keep going and then nearer home so about 10 miles away it seemed fine again and idled as normal. Any thoughts? The 'throttle position' sensors wires all attached. When at home the battery on charge / conditioner but not whilst away and don't know how old but seemed to start OK each stop.
Anyone experienced anything similar or thought what could have caused the problem at these low Rev's and around the time when it would idle. Mark
