On these bikes a fault o

Hi,
Had a similar problem with my '77 550F2. The bike would start and idle ok but would not pull much above 40-45 mph. If the innards of the points stator plate are similar (which I think they are) it might be worth looking at the auto-advance mechanism - see of the springs are ok and the mechanism is not sticking. I cleaned mine and the problem went away.
Cheers,
Pete.
