It stood for a while, I'm not sure how long. And thanks for the welcome!

Sorry slice! Just posted, work has been kinda crazy. So far I haven't done much. All I have done so far is cleaning out the carbs a couple times trying to get it to run, changed the oil, new chain, new coolant, new gas, new rear master brake cylinder. I rode it on a country road, and I couldn't get past 55 mph and 6k rpm's, even in my top gear. I know it's a work in progress, it's just slightly frustrating right now. It idles just fine after adjusting the idle set screw. I could only roll the throttle so much until it felt like it would bog down. Thinking of getting a carb rebuild kit.

Hi guys! I'm a freshman in college who just got his first bike. I have ridden before on other bikes, but this is the first one that I can call mine. It's a 1989 FZR 400. I got it from my uncle after it had sat for years. He's now passed away, and I'm trying to restore it back to peak health! Glad to be here

Hi guys. So I'm running into an interesting situation. I have resurrected my uncle's old bike that was sitting for a while. It is now idling fine and will start in about 2 tries. However when I try to ride the bike won't rev past 6k no matter how much throttle i give it even though it can rev up to 14k. It's having trouble going above 50 mph. Does anyone know what could be going on?
