Really odd problem!
I have been riding motorcycles for quite a long time and recently downsized to the C650GT from a 1300cc sport-touring bike.
The scooter fits my current “mission” well and I really love it. This is my first scooter.
It took me some time to adjust to CVT, I still can’t say that I like it much … but we are on good terms now.
Here are my two engine/fuel related questions to the members of the group:
First: it takes a relatively long time to warm the engine up, even during summer. Since there is no temp gage, I have indirect signs to go by. One is being if I twist the throttle brisk, the engine does not pick up as fast as I want. If feels like I am flooding the engine (if the engine was carbureted) for a half a second and then RPM goes up.
Do any of you experience long warmup times (approximately 10-15 minutes) and the engine “flooding” issues?
Second (maybe it is somehow related to the first problem): the fuel management system can cut the fuel for a moment at any speed when I ride slowly (25-30 mph, or 40-50 kph) or on high speed deceleration. The problem goes away as soon as I open the throttle up a little.
Did any of you experience anything like this?
Is it “normal”?
Thanks for your time in advance!
