Stalling without choke

I went for a test ride on a 1994 KLR250 today. The bike is in reasonably good condition and the engine and gearbox seem pretty tight. The only real issue is that the bike stalls without choke so the carby clearly needs some attention.


It runs fine on or off choke under power and normal riding conditions, just not at idle without choke. I only test rode it for about 10 mins, but I am pretty sure that was enough time for the engine to be at running temperature.


Any comments appreciated.

I would say the same increase idle speed

 

Yeah, definitely the first port of call. I don't know why I didn't suggest that in the first place - doh!


Just make sure its set to sleep at the speed dictated by the service manual, if it won't idle at that then theres another issue needing fixed.
