Float bowl level wrong? Idle mixture (it's normal for the mixture to get a little richer under hard braking as the fuel sloshes against the front of the bowl. I had an SR500 that did this, it was jetted VERY rich. Once I got the jetting straightened out it cleared it up. -- Devon Brooklyn, NY A15-Z '01 KLR650 '81 SR500 cafe racer "The truth's not too popular these days....."

That stall can also be a symptom of a tight exhaust valve.> --- In DSN_klr650@yahoogroups.com, "crawdad185" > wrote: > > My bike stalls when I brake real hard, or rather it does about 75% > of > > the time.
