ahh Moon - loss of power basically - she just wont rev & the more you open the throttle,the less power you get - we've changed the plug,the carb, the coil, & the ECU,checked the tappets & internals. The ony time she played ball was the very first time we put the new carb on her - she ran for a few miles & then the same symptoms came back - now she wont start at all!! am wondering if there's come crap in the tank that's getting through - however the fuel filter is fine. So the chappy I'm taking her to has another GN in so he's gonna swap bits around & see what works or dosnt! lol - but he's in Spain till the end of August!

Many moons ago (1972) Suzuki stinger, crashed it. Then a Suzuki GT250, crashed it. Gave up until 5 years ago. Yamaha yzf600 Honda fireblade (loved it, big mistake selling it) Aprilia RST1000 futura. Thinking of going back to a Blade.
