What's missing here?
-
It does rev higher than 9k, just very slowly, lol. It's a 93 French import, and I didn't think that year bike has any CDI restriction?
The bike came with an aftermarket exhaust made by Rino Racing, And I've tried a 220 main jet, now on a 240. Might be placebo effect, but might get to 9.5 a touch quicker that it did. Any help would be appreciated

It goes through the cleaning cycle ok when I turn the ignition on, but does sound lethargic doing it. so that would be a new servo/motor thats needed? To be fair I've not tested the battery either, so not sure what kind of condition thats in. That could affect it too couldn't it?

@Pablo13 Yeah but on some CDI's it will retard the valve at certain RPM.
That engine should rev out hard all the way to the red line.
The best way to eliminate it not being the powervalve is to align the valve up through the exhaust port, then disconnect the servo. And take it for a test ride. Bottom end should be lost, but past 6K it should pull hard to 12k

So, check the green black wire is grounded and stick a finger in my exhaust is the next port of call?
Cheers for the help btw guys

Its not the valve. I took the exhaust off and aligned the valve, unplugged the servo and it was still the same at the top. What should I look at next?

Yeah still going flat in the higher rpms. Maybe the coil is weak. No plug chops yet, but I stuck a new one in a few weeks back ngk 8 i believe. Also along with a new air filter as it just ticked over 24km.....about 15k miles. Snorkel is in. Problem has been there before the service too. Would be nice to get to the bottom of it

Just an aftermarket exhaust and a 240 main jet I stuck in, that's it. So compression test next?
@Pablo13 What exhaust you running?
Most manufactures stipulate sticking with 210 main jet, despite the uprated exhaust.
I don't know the figures that constitute acceptable levels for the compression test.
I would look at the electrics first.
If the engine sounds sweet, then chances are it is.
-
@Pablo13 Yeah something isn't right. But 93, if it's the original electrics, then I'd swap out the coil, and HT lead for a new one.
If it's still causing issues then it can only be the CDI, pickup or engine.
Unless someone else wants to chime in, I can't see what else it could be.
The fueling shouldnt be far off.
