Buriram Kawasaki Dealership.

[mahdam]

I have a small Kawasaki trail bike, and yesterday took it to the New Kawasaki dealership on the opposite side of the road to Buriram Robinsons.
I asked for it to be serviced, and have the chain tightened, I also asked them to clean the carb as it misfires around half throttle.
The technician told me that the problem with the misfire would be because the chain was loose and not to mess with the carb.
Realising I was on a hiding to nothing with this guy, I asked them just to change the oil and tighten the chain. I am sure some of these lads that
set up shop on the side of the road would be more competent than these so called technicians. As this is a very basic "low tech" bike I suppose he
would have been happier if it had been something he could have plugged into a computer and been told how to adjust.

So, did tightening the chain improve the misfire problem?

I suppose that in a country that some folks believe that hanging a red T shirt on the fence will ward off the evil "Husband killer" ghost.
Then to believe that tightening the chain of a Motorcycle will stop it misfiring is quite feasible. I just expected a more technical answer from a Kawasaki technician.
