RG150 lacking power?

I reckon 150, maybe 155 at a push. As for revving out, mine won't rev out on its own in 6th unless its been taken over about 10-11k in 5th. Your bike should rev out, something will be wrong. If it drops out of the powerband at highspeed it won't rev out to save its life.

Well I redline it in 5th then change to 6th and it drops to 10k but as I'm going along it slowly drops to about 8.5k and the speed slowly drops to.

Even with this problem i had it at *indicated* 175 the other day ....but just for a second then it just slowed down... that was going down hill slightly.

As for it turning over it used to turn over first kick everytime but now that i fouled the spark plugs and got new ones it takes 2 or 3 when its cold with choke on.

Do you have an idea of how accurate your speedo is? The speedo on my KR was horrific. It indicated 140 when doing a bit less than 110. Took a little while to get used to riding past speed cameras doing "140"
