Hi,
I've just become the latest owner of a 239 Desmo and rode it home a few days ago. The journey was mostly uneventful apart from a self adjusting clutch lever and a nasty hesitation when opening the throttle from closed.
I'm fairly sure the clutch will be easily sorted but does anyone have a clue what the hesitation on throttle opening might be?
Blocked accelerator pump/idle jet are the first things that come to mind. It's got a Dellorto PHF carb on it - any gotchas to opening one up and looking inside?
TIA
