    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi guys I hope you can help me...today while out with AZR for a ride on my new too me gsxr I experienced a little sputter at around 200kmph (125mph)...now it's not real bad just a little sputter that makes me want to back off on the throttle a bit. Could it be jetting? I would really like to get this sorted out.
Thanks

Like you need to be worried about that as that will be your standard commuting speed.......in B.C. no less. Can we expect to see you on Youtube? :)

Actually, I think the Mounties programmed that into your carbs since it seems to have the desired effect, to whit:

I'm thinking a carb cleaning and rebuild with blah, blah, blah....you know the drill.

Thanks for the chuckle.

Exactly WHERE can you go that fast on southern Vancouver Island?

shhh! Don't give away your secret...THEY are listening.

What kind of rpms were you turning at the time?
 
It's your jetting. Go down 4 sizes on the mains. Report back with the results. ;)
Showoff.

Hehe..Road to Cowachin.:p Rpms were around 10000 but redline is 13000!
I don't want people to think I'm a speed demon but you know new bike, safe wide open road, etc. I don't condone this kind of behaviour.:) But boy was it fun!!:D
 
Most bikes won't pull redline in top gear. Did you redline it in the next lower gear before shifting?
IOW, for a 5 speed, you need to redline in 4th, then shift and see what she will do.
Not that I would condone nor have any experience in such shenanigans, but I think I read it on the web somewhere. :-\\\
