My xs400 was running perfectly fine and then just one day it started bogging every now and then.
I replaced the fuel filter because it was super gunked and then added clamps and it seems that the fuel isn't running quite as freely as it was before, so I am planning on just putting a straight through line and seeing if it solves the problem.
However, now it has 2 issues. 1)once it gets hot it idles super super high (I replaced the intake manifolds about a month ago). and 2) when I'm not on the throttle it almost dies.
An early symptom before it got this bad was that when I pulled the throttle it would bog bog bog and then sort of go. There was also a really bad fuel smell and the motorcycle sounds really different now when I start it.
Is there anything I should check?
I've cleaned the jets in the carb
will check for airleaks and add a new fuel line
replaced the spark plugs
