Sold my GSX750F to a guy a couple of weeks ago and he called me last night and said it's doing something odd that it wasn't doing when I had it. He said that he starts the bike and it idles fine but as soon as he gives it a little throttle it dies. Just wondered if anyone has any idea why it might have started doing that?

It's nice that you provide a warranty... ;)

My question would be.. what has he "fixed" since having it?

--has the airfilter been replaced or removed (changes mix)?
--is the reg/battery ok (check current when revving)?
--is it flooding?
--are the plug leads connected correctly (and in right spot)?

I think it was just cause you infected it with ghaids.
