My buddy has a newer GasGas 250 4t like 2020+ not sure exactly but whenever we go riding the bike runs great until we’ve been riding awhile and then it just spits and sputters and dies out unless you stay on the throttle. Any ideas what would cause it before taking it to the shop?
My checklist when this sort of thing happens on an Austrian is:
1. Check battery terminals and ground and other electrical connectors
2. Check you spark plug cap and make sure it isn't cracked
3. Fuel filters/pump, Buy a fuel pressure gauge to make this a lot easier
Maybe it needs GAS! Lol 😂,
Sorry, I just couldn’t resist!
Check the easy stuff like posted above, change out the inline fuel filter even if it looks fine. If the problem persists I’d start looking at testing some electrical components.
One time on my 2019 KTM, it would run very odd after about 30-60 minutes. Turns out the water pump shaft was broken off and it wasn't pushing coolant. It is worth a quick look of you can.
