Bike bogs need help

EBRINK61 · 08-09-2006, 12:53 PM

While riding when I hit 10k the bike bogs like a rev limiter kicked in.I have a TRE mod and PCIII on her,yes I took them off 2 see if that would help it didn't.I can rev her to redline when not riding with no problem.It only happens when she's under load. Any ideas?

ok, does the bike really bog like it just flat won't rev higher but stays smoothly at 10k? or does it act like its hitting a rev limiter and bouncing off of 10k like it just dropped spark for a milli-second?

right off hand i'd say something's amiss with air, fuel, or spark. the only difference between revving it in neutral while stopped and revving it with a load on it is the load of trying to accelerate the bike. may not be getting enough of one of the three things listed to make enough power to still pull the bike past 10k while in gear.

Maybe time for a valve adjustment. I think tight valves will cause the bogging at higher RPM. Did it start doing this out of the blue?

she bogs like it hit a rev limiter and yes it was kinda out of the blue.I do alot of city driving so I hadn't had the rev up that high to often.I was hoping it was something I could fix myself but maybe I'll toss her in the shop.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP
I'll post later 2 let you know what it was.
