Not a sport bike. It's actually a sport touring bike. Sounds like a diaphragm issue. Or a main jet issue. The idle jets control rpm up to 3k, then the transition of the main jet starts to work in. If it's failing on rev you're lacking fuel, so it is a jet or passage issue. Have you properly synced the carbs?Last edited by 92xjunker; 10-02-2016, 09:43 AM."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."

Carb dip. Then I went through all the ports and jets with a nylon wire. Then as putting together I resprayed with brake cleaner. It doesn't leave a residue
Going to check them out after lunch. Any ideas text or call me 8632413340

Is the oil over full or smell of fuel by chance?
That would cause a lot of issues.

Too much fuel. What size pilot jets are you running? What do the A/F needles look like and are the O-ring there?"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."

If it's the engine side of the carb boots, replace the orings.
If its the air box side, reseal the airbox with gasket sealer.
If not those, please explain or provide picture.
