How often should a Sportbike get a tune up?
Ive had the zxr250 about a year now and suspect it's needed. It's started to flatspot a bit around the 15000rpm mark, and generally seems less smooth. For instance, the throttle seems 'jerky' coming on the gas out of a corner. Top speed has dropped also, it doesnt seem to want to pull past about 175. A tank of gas is lasting me about 180kms at best and I'm sure it used to more.
So verdicts anyone? clean out? tuneup?
