I know, I know...wrong forum. Me bad.
Got a quick question, though: got some interesting issues in either fuel delivery or engine performance.
1st gear: Fine until you start running at 6500-7500 rpms at a constant rate.
2nd gear: Same thing
3rd gear: didn't try...that's going a little too fast. No sense getting pulled over tryin to diagnose the problem.
This is not the first time it happened either.
Happened about 2 months ago...2nd gear, throttle consistent in keeping a 6500-7500 rpm range. Cut out, then surged a bit.
Today, kept it in 1st gear, riding at the same rpm range, same thing happened. Engine cuts out, rpms dropped to below 1000. Pulled the clutch in...just in case the engine decided to come back to life a split second after it cut out.
Don't really think I wanted to do another unexpected wheelie past the school zone.
At any rate, mods are as follows:
scorpion slip-ons
removed pair
block-offs (made from pair valve pipes, crushed, grinded over, and sealed with hi-temp epoxy)
16/42 gearing (not sure this is relevant, but throwing it in just in case)
not exactly the marble mod, but have a hose with a screw in it (to plug the open end) along with a tightly clamped clamp on the air box.
blocked off pair valve line on the TBs
Engine has close to 20K miles on it. Prolly somewhere around 17k, although that estimate could be off.
Whaddya think, folks?
