I have a problem with the bike hessitating, from 3000rpm to 5000rpm it bogs down then goes like its been kicked up the arse!
I've cleaned the tank, carbs (mikunis) and filters replaced plugs and fitted 1 new coil to the offending cylinder (#4) but it still persists...
the carbs appear ok diaphrams etc and have been balanced, I'm starting to lean towards the needle jet or tube being worn? or even the slides? it only happens on one cylinder and if I ride along and not give it too much throttle then its fine but anything more than a 1/4 throttle it craps out its better when its cold, but once warm or in town its crap!
anyone else had simular problem and found the fix? I havent reached for the 5 lites of fuel and match just yet but its getting close...
