HI all and thanks in advance for helping.
I have an XJ1100 that is giving me problems. It sometimes starts but runs rough, as if not all 4 cylinders are firing. After running like this for a while I will sometimes get a large backfire, followed by clouds of smoke and an airbox full of oil.
The last time I tried to ride it I made it about 300 yards before the thing just died on me.
The bike sat unused for a while but had been running ok up to that point. I have a feeling it may be carb related but don't let me lead you down the wrong path if you have another idea.
Any thoughts or should I just shoot the poor old thing? Thanks.
