Hi all,

I have only been a member two days and i'm having trouble already. Ok Whilst riding to work this morning, I started to lose power it kind of just faded away to about 40mph. So I pulled in let it idle for a minute or so then it would rev freely and go as you would expect it.

It done that same scenario about 5 times during a 25mile journey, i'm not running a standard airbox instead i've got two conical filters directly into the carbs dont know if they are jetted properly, and its defo not fuel the tank was full at the time.

Help please its driving me bananas.
