Got my 840 kit in, got the first issue of the timing fixed, the bike then started great idled great, ran great.. I did the break in period, had no issues.. Break in consisted of idle up to temp, cool all the way down, 1/4 throttle up to temp, cool all the way down (2 rounds of that), half throttle up to temp varying rpms, cool all the way down and then drove it the next day to give some full throttle runs. Bike ran great.

Readjusted the valves after because they started ticking and they had loosened some in the break in I guess. That was squared away and the bike ran great. Then the issue of the battery draining or so I thought that was it. Replaced the stator, battery and voltage regulator and the bike still does the same thing.

On a full charge and when the bike is cold, it will start right up and idle. As soon as it warms up it begins to surge or bog down if your applying throttle. As soon as you let off the throttle it dies. When I attempt to restart it, it barely turns over as if the battery was dead. Ruled out the starter, the starter solenoid, the regulator, battery and the stator. When you turn the key on the fuel pump cycles like it should and all my connections and fuses are good.

When it was warm I heard high pitched squeak coming from the left side of the motor, like a metal on metal sound. I’m hoping a bearing isn’t spun or something to that nature. As soon as the bike cools down and the battery isn’t drained it will fire back up.

This thing has become a nightmare.. Any opinions?
