I have a late 80s GPZ250 (87 ish I think) that is having some issues.
Symptom:
The bike lacks power, and even at idle with the throttle open it takes ~2 seconds to get to 8000 RPM (roughly halfway on the gauge) and won't go any higher.
Repairs:
I have taken the carbs out and cleaned them, as well as all the fuel hoses to/from the carbs.
I removed the tank, drained it, cleaned it and then refilled it.
I checked/cleaned the spark plugs.
None of the above has changed anything, though I wasn't surprised cos nothing was looking at all dirty.
Does anyone have any suggestions/thoughts?
