GS850G Flat spot at 6000rpm

[cowley]

I have a '81-'83 Gs850 G, i had a flat spot at 6000 rpm, I removed the carbs, cleaned them proparly. I set the float levels to the correct spec(it was to full)

Now at least i get past the flat spot, but it is still there between 5800 & 6300 rpm & then it will only rev up to 8400 rpm, regardless which Gear.

Please any good advice?

Factory airbox, pods. Factory exhaust? Jetting mods?

Stupid Question?



I found that my rectifier isn't feeding more than 12 volts

This would'nt have an effect on problem?

Surprising, yes it does have an effect

Gustav had the same problem with his project bike recently, fixed the electrical problem and no more running issues

[cowley]

Yes, thanx for the advice guys, will check all the tips this weekend and then run it
