| Just purchased a 1300 Voyager. Nice bike but it won´t start reliably when it has been cold for a while. The battery with the bike didn´t hold a charge so it was with a jumper that it had to start. Always never on the first try. To get it going I need to hold the throttle wide opwn. After a while it will catch, like it is flooded. I tried shutting the gass off to keep an excess of fuel when starting but that doesn´t change much. After it gets going and warmed up a bit (a couple of minutes)it runds fine. The only other issue is not too good fuel mileage. It show on the trip computer from 10 to 15 km/l often. Occationally higher than that but not too often. I thought the bike would get better mileage than that cruising. Otherwise, even being so old, I love the bike being my first touring type bike. DanG |
