Need some input on my "new" 2001 r1100rt.
Just picked a 35,000 mile bike that's been sitting in a garage for 8 years in a garage and looks quite good. Drained the old gas, put in fresh with some added Seafoam and then ran the old gas out of the tank lines by keying on and off, and the flow was strong and some darker fuel came out but did this until it flowed cwith new clear fuel. Then did the same through the lines that go to the injectors.
Changed the spark plugs to Autolites.
It fires, but it struggles to idle, it will rev but not easily and with a delay, and then inevitably pops itself dead. I push the starter, same thing, fires, idles rough, backfires (pops) and dies.
I am assuming dirty injectors? Am I overlooking something else?
Thanks!
