Honda cb 72 with no power

Post by profetaii » Mon Mar 03, 2014 6:59 am

I have bought a honda cb 72, and in about 2 weeks the motorcycle stop having power.

The motorcycle runs but with a lots of limit in terms of power.

Can anyone help with this question?

thanks

Can you confirm that it is running on both cylinders?

hard question to say!


I hope so! but i don't know.

A collegue of mine told me that could be the air filter.

With the bike running put your hand (don't touch the pipes!!) about ~4" away from the mufflers. Assuming both baffels are present or missing... Do you feel the same force of air coming from both pipes? If one side is weak it can be a sign that side isn't firing.

This assuming you have a normal/stock/non-modified bike
