oz thumper Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 I saw the report that the loss of power on Bous' bike was caused by a "blocked breather". Does anybody know if that was true and which breather it was? I presume it was the fuel tank breather as I can't see the crankcase breather causing the problem he experienced. Just nice to know for future reference when trying to trace an obscure fault on our bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandifords Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 From the "horses mouth" - Jordi Grannells - Montesa HRC factory mechanic. Small stone which prevented the fan from working properly and therefore caused the bike to get hot and cut out. Regards, Caroline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
