The gixxer has started surging when accelerating hard. Don't know what's causing it as nothing has been changed.

Lots of revs, no power :(

A loose chain can do that too, but it probably is clutch...

Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki or Suzuki. All Jappa bikes are the same. I've had 5 Hondas, 3 Suzuki's, 1 Yamaha & 1 Kawasaki.

You got a full tank of gas mate??

If you are running low and herb it, the gas slops to the bank of the tank and can run the injectors dry. Happens on my 1400 when it gets low.

Let us know whats up okey. :)

Spanks bike wasn't used as a press bike though it was only on display to show off the colour scheme if i'm correct?

Clutch! Maybe adjustment hasn't got enough free play and the clutch can not fully engage, and now it's worn in a bit it is slipping from the wear, where as it still had some grip in the plates when new and wouldn't of done it at first?
Try backing the adjuster on the lever off a bit and see if that helps.
The new K6 600/750 have a slipper clutch this year, may be something a crop in there affetcing the rest of the clutch.
Still a brand new bike get it back to wear you brought it and they'll sort it for you.

He said lots of revs **R1**. I would've thought Spankme could distinguish a slipping clutch from a surging problem.

I don't notice anything riding around town, just when hooning in the back roads. It was fine for two coro loops, but started surging last few days. Will be taking it in to Colemans tomorrow.
