Hello
Does anyone have any suggestions about my ER-5 (think they are basically the same as an ex500). It runs OK on tickover and through to rev range to around 5000 rpm. It refuses to go above 6000. If you blip it around 5000 and hold the throttle full open, it sounds like it is starving itself of petrol or air.
The air box is off at the minute ready for the carbs to be tuned, new plugs, new HT leads. The breather pipe from the carbs is away from the carbs, so it shouldn't be this. I've cleaned the carbs and everything is free to move. New fluids, exhaust isn't blocked
Has anyone come across anything similar to this or can you give me some suggestions on what to try next.
Cheers
