My Yamaha Virago 750 when I ride it and it heats up, it shuts off until cool then it starts again??? What is wrong with it?

by: keelan

Hi there, I have a mint fz750 1985 39K kilometers on it. when it gets hot (really hot) it stalls at stoplight occasionaly. starts up after a few minutes often with a backfire or two.. I cahnged the plugs cleaned out the carbs and still it happens every 9th or tenth ride. any solutions to your problem?

Possibly Blow-By

I'm not sure just "how" it shuts off, but I had a bike that lost power and died once it got warmed up. Turned out that the rings were worn out. Not fun.

Faulty Coil

It could be the coil breaking down when it gets hot.

Voltage regulator/rectifer is bad.

Check w/dealer and MOM

...motorcycle owners manual...wish I had one for my bike!

Sounds like a safety feature if the bike should overheat, but I really don't know!

Give your local dealer a call; not sure why anonymous there was so...flip...

Ride safe!

Why don't you ask your dealer, since that is what they are there for.
