[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1465029, member: 19880"] The usual issue with the canister is starting starting the bike when it has been sitting in the hot sun for a time. Fuel vapor saturates the charcoal and the engine runs like crap (extremely rich) for five minutes or so until the canister is purged by intake air being drawn through it. There have been reports of problems with the canister getting plugged over time and that could lead to a permanent running issue. Not hard to bypass the canister (compare parts fiche for Cali models to 49 state models), but I would try simply disconnecting it first to see if that makes a difference. [/QUOTE]
