I have an 04 Buell Blast. Full tank of fuel. I started the bike the other day and accidentally put the fuel valve to reserve rather than run. The bike started fine, I let the idle drop after the start and I pull out of my drive way. I begin to roll out and it sputters. I stop and try to get the hiccup out. It sputter when I rev but idles fine. I realize the valve is on reserve and then switch to run and it is fine. Is my screen clogged?
Correct me if I am wrong. The reserve setting is drawing fuel from the same tank as run, just from a lower spot. If I start the bike and run it from reserve the bike should run the same as if I started it from run. The only difference is I would not have the sputter to tell me that fuel is low so I can switch to reserve.
Am I right? Someone told me it was due to a carb setting. I think he is wrong.
Usually I reset the odo every fill up and usually fill up at 100 miles.
