hi guys ime having a problem with my 166 i can do 70mph in spurts but when i sit at 55mph after about 5 miles it just loses all power and cuts out as anyone got a answer because its doing my head in thanks
Sounds like you are heat siezing.
Could be incorrect jetting,timing,air leak,etc.
In my opinion Malossi kits are crap and a bitch to get set up.
Never got one running right.
Good luck with it.
