I have a 2007 wr250r.  Last year I hardly used the bike.  I replaced the battery because the old one was dead.  The bike starts up fine but when it is warms up it wants to shut off.  I took it for a ride and it shuts off when I slow down or stop.  Does anyone know what it could be?

Do you have a service manual so you can check the TPS. = throttle position sensor. It is very sensitive and if loose could go too low and kill bike at low rpm's. Could also be very bad if it hits 100% at full throttle and could stick open.

The air filter looks good. It idles fine but when gets warm it wants to shut off.

If the fuel tank still has old gasoline in it, siphon it all out and put in some fresh stuff, check the engine oil level (or change it if it's been a while), and then take it for a 30 minute ride.

Does the bike have a fuel programmer on it?
If so, check the settings against what works for riders on this forum.

No, you don't.


First year for the wr250r/x was 2008.

I siphoned out the old gasoline yesterday.  No programmer on it.  I did notice that it makes a weird noise just before cutting off.

Could be a low battery, my sons Husky did the same thing, fuel pump did not like the low voltage, soon as we charged the battery it worked fine, cheer`s

I replaced with new gasoline bike runs fine now. The siphoned gasoline had a yellow tint to it.
