Got to Yellowstone today, went for an afternoon ride and the XP isn’t running right. The mag side cylinder drops out at about 1/4 throttle on the trail. Just cuts out when you are just at about ¼” of throttle, drops from about 40mph to 20mph. Just a little more throttle and it cuts back in and runs fine (picks up quickly to 50mph or so). Seams to run fine at idle. Seams to be a fuel mixture problem I think.
Went to the dealer here, say that they can't look at it for four days (sun/mon are holidays).
Any chance anyone has any ideas? I have checked the DPM lines, took the air box off and checked everything I can see, can't see any problems. Tried new plugs on the trail and swapping plugs, no help.
Further more, any one know how to get the air box back on? I am using the starter rope to pull the carbs forward but I cannot get enough room to get the boot around the mag side carb. It keeps getting pinched and won't slip onto the carb. What is the trick here? Move the tank back, engine forward?
Thanks for any help you can give me!
