07 FSR 450 injector problem?

[GavGav]

Thanks for all your replies guys.
But I am unsure if it could be the fuel pump relay.

The pump was working when I tested the injector. I could hear it, but the injector was not squirting.

Unfortunately I have had no time to check things out since I last rode it, haven't even cleaned it yet!

I will check out some of the recommendations re crank sensor on the weekend.

I will keep you informed..
Cheers guys.

I contacted Solo imports (Australian distributor)
He agreed that it sounded like there was a problem with the injector.


I emailed them after work, John called me at 10am the next day to discuss the issue!!
I tell you what, great service. (Thanks John)

So sending him the possible faulty injector for them to test/replace.
He said they have only had 1 or 2 faulty.

Just before Xmas 07 my 07 450FSR (uk model) started to have problems. It would start from cold but once warmed up it would stall when I closed the throttle. Getting it started again was a nightmare and once restarted it ran rough and wouldn't run with small throttle openings. I couldn't work out what was going on, so I took it back to the uk importers at Buxton. Kev, the mechanic their tried sensors, a new plug and a few other things but eventually fixed it by replacing the injector. He thought that the injector was sticking at wide open.

He said that he hadn't seen it be a problem in the uk on the four stroke before mine, but I don't think they import/sell very many as I have never come across another one whilst out on the trail or taking part in a rally.

I hope yours gets fixed.

So, I got the replacement injector from solo imports.
Nice and quick I might add.

Installed it and went for a 100Km ride around the sandy tracks here.

Had no problems at all with the new injector.
Actually, I think the bike had a bit more poke, but that might be psychosomatic?

So hopefully that was the problem and not a intermittent crank sensor....

We will have to wait and see a bit longer..

Definitely fixed.
Been on a few long rides with no problems.

Just need better arm strength to hold onto the bike!

Thanks again to Solo Imports Australia!
