i initially thought it was something to do with carbs... So had a thorough clean, changed gaskets, checked the main jet size (140... I use pods and short megaton exhausts and the bike used to run well with this jet before)... Noticed the diaphragms were old and had small holes so ordered a brand new pair from jbm industries, convinced that I had finally solved a vacuum problem with the diaphragms...
Nope, the probleme remains
The bike starts on the first kick and idles very well... The problem comes at mid revs or a bit earlier. It stutters badly and won't go any faster as if starving gas.
I have noticed that the right hand spark plug is very wet and that the right exhaust is only warm when the left one is boiling hot... So there is definitely a probleme on the right side. Changed the spark plugs too but again, no difference.
Could it be the coil, the condensor, anything else ?
This is a very sudden problem, and I think I have checked eveything that could be checked with the carbs... So some part must have gone wrong all of a sudden...
Many thanks for your help if any of you has an idea...
