My restored CB250RS is normally perfect. But today it got very sick. I rode off for work and forgot to turn the fuel tap on, again. Nothing unusual. But after that it died. Wouldn't start again. Finally check the spark OK. Fuel flow OK. Drained the carb OK. What the? Finally kicked into life (and it's normally first go) and it sounded real bad. Like a 2 stroke, no revs,
lots of smoke and one unhappy bike. What does the Forum reckon? I'm really hoping it's not a major mechanical issue like
a valve or head problem. Appreciated any feedback as it's a great little bike. Thanks. (PS. If you don't know the CB250RS,
it's an 80's Honda factory road bike with XL250 motor. Nice.)
