[QUOTE="Rednaxs60, post: 202351, member: 4617"] Took the old girl, and went for a ride up the coast to Port Renfrew for a burger. Went two up, had the better half with me. Nice ride for half the journey and then it went overcast and cooled down quite a bit. Bike operated well. Nice scenery. Stopped at Jorden River where the fellows were out kite boarding:[ATTACH type="full" alt="Bike 1.jpg"]16757._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="Kite Boarding.jpg"]16758._xfImport[/ATTACH] Stopped at The 17 mile house for coffee and coconut cream pie:[ATTACH type="full" alt="17 Mile House.jpg"]16759._xfImport[/ATTACH] Now for the interesting part. On the way back, the engine RPM would start to drop. No missing or anything, just start to fall off. Apply a bit of throttle and can idle no problems. The engine temp would go up to 6 bars when riding start/stop in the city but the fan was not on, should not be an issue. Engine temp dropped back to 4 bars when up to speed on the roads. Any RPM over 1000 and have 14.3 VDC on the gauge. Wondering if engine temp and low engine compression has any relationship. Got back to the garage, let it cool down for about an hour, started right up and idled just fine. Will monitor and think about it - research the net as well. It will be sitting for a while as I now will be turning my efforts to the final packing for the trip east to get the other bike. Cheers [/QUOTE]
