Post subject: | Suzuki RV 125 - High Rev Start Issue |
Hello all, first post on this site! Need a little help with my 1973 Suzuki RV 125 Tracker. I recently purchased this bike from a family member. Nice condition and still runs, but needs a little work. I'm new to working on bikes and want to learn, so I've decided not to take it into a shop. I took the carb off the other night and gave it a complete cleaning. Seemed to go well, but when I hooked it back up and started the bike, it red-lined almost immediately. I turned it off ASAP to avoid damage. I tried this a couple of times, but got the same result. Took the carb off again and double checked my work, but can't seem to find the issue. Any ideas? Could this be a vacum leak? Throttle cable issue? Thanks in advance for the advice. |

Take the carb off with the slide still in tact, peer into the air box side of the carb...most likely the slide is not in its groove and is 1/2 way up. |
