[QUOTE="AKmotorider, post: 139110, member: 1118"] bobkyle2, it is definitely me stalling it, not the bike. And James, the idle is set just right. The reason it stalled was because I was traveling at 1st gear speeds in 2nd gear. The reason I was doing that is because I was taking a tight corner right before a large jump, and I'm still trying to learn how to carry my speed through rutted turns. Point is, it's me. As for the leaded gas, TurtleShifter, I doubt thats the problem. First off, race gas and 90 supreme (highest octane pump gas here) 50/50 mix would be more expensive, and I don't think the cost justifies the means. Basically, I don't stall it very often, and unless the lead is coating my spark plug and other engine parts (which if it was, would definitely justify the cost of going 50/50) it doesn't seem like it would be worth it. Plus, I don't really see how the lead would be making it hard to start only after it has been stalled. That doesn't really make sense, unless lead or something in the AVGAS somehow reacts with extreme heat in a negative way. That is why I am thinking it is something else, such as the engine being worked. However, somebody else told me that it has nothing to do with the engine being worked. So I'm kind of at a loss.
