Hi,

My Africa Twin (RD07A) Starts spluttering after about 22km. When I stop at a robot, it idles fine and on pull away it is fine but then starts spluttering again.

My bike stood for a long time, and since the engine rebuild, I have driven it about 1000km but its all short distances. I have installed a new Facet fuel pump, and fuel filter when the bike was rebuilt.

Its almost like its not getting enough juice, but why then when I drive to work which is under 10km, it drives 100%. I took it onto the highway and went fine for a few kilomiters, but then started spluttering, and also feels extremely sluggish as if there is no power, battles to accellerate with the spluttering.

Any Ideas of where to start looking? The fuel filter I installed was one I got at midas, I took the old one there, and I think it was a generic one I was given. The bike also has a new CDI, and also a new regulator. I have replaced all the fuses aswell.

Thanks,
