I have a 89 600 kat (1st bike) that boggs down when the wind is blowing from the right side, I have to pretty much have it at full throttle to keep it going. And once I pass something that blocks the wind (like a house or underpass) it takes off, but once it gets back into the open it boggs down again. I first thought it was because the fairing on that side was broken (huge hole in the side) and it was getting to much air/not enough fuel. But now I have complete ones on and it continues to do so. I also experimented with covering part of the hole by sliding my leg forward and it helped. Please HELP!

Weird wind problem.

Make sure the boots are on the carbs good and tight. They are tough to get on if you don't know the tricks.Must read for carb tuners......http://www.factorypro.com/tech/tech_...m_engines.html

^_^ I probably could have worded the title a little better lol. But thanks guys! I was going to take a look at it today but its pouring outside and supposed to tomorrow so it has now become a Friday project, that and the parts store has to order me a filter, so it's even more of a wait. I doubt the one on it currently is any good. I know I haven't changed it.You're the [Gal] that'll be sneaking out of your bedroom at three o'clock in the morning to look at your bike.
