Hi everyone,
I always put shell91 gas and stabilizer in my bike every winter. Last time I filled the tank up full was 2nd week of October give or take. Taken the bike out a couple times since and have topped up with $3-$4 of gas cause I thought I'd be winterizing it and I like to have a full tank with stab for storage.
Anyways, went for a ride yesterday and when I was in traffic my bike stuttered at low speed then died. Pulled over to side of the road and she started right back up. Ran fine before the stall and after.
I am thinking maybe the gas was starting to go bad? Maybe fuel pump got cloggled up and injectors needed to re-rime? Maybe it wasn't liking the cold air/moisture mix outside?
I am not too worried as this is the first time its happened and the bike was running fine, minus the stall at low speed (5-10km).
This happen to anyone else at this time of year when taking the bike out after sitting?
