1985 GS700ES Power Issue Only in 2nd Gear
When I am in 2nd gear, and I give the bike gas, it hessitates numerous times through excelleration. This only happens in 2nd gear and only during accelleration. When I downshift into second at high rpms I have no issue. Any assistance with this issue would be greatly appreciated.Tags: None

To be honest with you I don't know for sure, since the guy I bought it off of knew nothing about the bike. However, due to a fuel issue, I removed the carbs to clean them and noticed that the secondary jets had been removed and capped and it would appear that larger bored primarys were inserted. It is just odd to me that this is only a second gear issue, I would think that if the jetting were the problem, I would see this issue throughout 1st and 3rd gear as well.

Yeah it would be great if logic worked. I have pods, 4 in 1 and a stage 3 jet kit. I have had all forms of confusing nonsense until just lately after I switched over to K&N filters, now things are better, not perfect but better.
Do you still have the stock airbox and exhaust?
