So today My P125X decided to engage in many dubious affairs while on a ride with some buddies. They were pretty much solved by the end of the ride, except one.


So imagine if you will that you are approaching a stop. You do your downshifting and braking until you stop.

Once stopped you put you feet down to stand up and stretch a bit. When you sit back down you hear a loud buzzing sound and a audible click. It goes away once you begin riding. Only does it when you rise out of the seat and sit back down at idle. Doesn't do it at bumps in the road.


Anyone else experience this type of racket?

All I can think of is that pressure is somehow being applied to the choke cable.

You know what, that does kinda make sense. I'm going to do a carb rebuild and some other wrenching with a friend in a couple weeks, I'll look at it and see what comes up.
