Hey guys,
Had my FZS 600 about a week, and so far it's been spot on.
Went to take it out today though, and it definitely wasn't running right. It started as usual, but the tickover was rather unstable, Riding it to begin with was also not right, it wasn't revving right (similar to a water in the fuel symptoms for people that know what that feels like), but cleared after about 6k revs and started riding as normal. Carried on doing that for a couple of miles, and then it seemed to go back to normal.
Any suggestions as to what it could be? I'll be giving it a service at some point imminently anyway just for peace of mind more than anything, so will get new brake hoses and fluid, oil and oil filter change, air filter clean out and reoil (it's a K&N), carbs balanced etc (plus whatever else it says to do in the Haynes manual).
