    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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...

  • Returning Visitors

    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.

This is my sons bike and we are having difficulty with the below:-
bike starts on the button but as you pull away it seems not to be running on all cylinders, if it some revs and all four are working.
So far have replaced both coils as one was faulty, fitted new plugs, cleaned carbs and balanced them.
Fuel tank was rinsed out just in case.
Bike has standard air box and exhaust.
Now thinking to change plug caps any other ideas.
Thanks in advance
 
Once you get past a certain throttle position, the pilots no longer take part in fuel operations. In the lower position you mention, the pilots will be working fully.

It sounds like a pilot system is plugged up to me.

Full teardown and dip should be in order.
 
And for future reference in this thread....

Year, model (katana?) would help.

If it is a Katana, PM me and I will give you a few helpful links.
 
Thanks for the info the model is a Bandit 600 GSF 1998
If the revs are kept high all cylinders are firing, going through the gears the at speed no problem as soon as the gas is let off she drops to two or three cylinders, I suppose it does sound like full carb strip is needed.
Once again thanks for your input.
