hugh_b Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 It's possible. I had a faulty cdi unit on my 2013 bike, it would give symptoms of running hot and run very lumpy. Swapped it out with a mates 2012 unit and it ran perfectly. Rathmell's replaced under warranty. Do you have a friend with a sherco you can pinch the cdi from?

tltel Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Could also be a fuel issue (too much), or reeds, dirty air filter, TLTEL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
