Hi guys,
I have a very annoying problem with my bike, I hope someone may help me detect the cause of it. English is not my native, so I'm going to have a hard time explaining what's the problem.
In short - throttle seems to jerk when I start revving at low RPM. The main problem is that my bike has a hickup in the exact moment when throttle gets added. I'm sure you don't understand so let me try to explain in more details - for example, I shift to 2nd gear, release throttle, release the clutch slowly and after when I add throttle, if I don't do it micro-precisely-slowly the bike makes a hickup which sometimes tends to throw me out of the seat.
The same thing happens in reverse. If I'm riding 2nd gear at 3-4k rpm (just as an example) and release the throttle - the bike jerks in the very moment when throttle no more revs.
Symptoms: this happens in low gears, once this jerk goes away everything runs smoothly. This doesn't happen in neutral. Adding throttle goes smoothly without hickups.
I've consulted the mechanic and he adjusted cylinders and said that's it. I think he didn't quite understand my problem.
Could it be that clutch/throttle cables needs lubing? Any other idea?
Thanks much for your thoughts, I really appreciate it.
