I bought a used 1998 XL1200. We test drove it and it was great except for a hesitation on acceleration at about 1/4 throttle. Compression was 110 for all cylinders.
I made these modifications:
-Gone to premix
-Installed primer and removed choke plates
-Reset high and low screws to factory settings
Still hesitated so I upped the pilot jets one size. Now it idles VERY high and won't kill, the engine continues to run for as much as 30 seconds after hitting the kill switch.
Before I dive into it again any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.
