sluggish 550
Bryanj:
Air cleaner blocked or eahaust bunged, or if you are old enough to carry waterproof leggings DO NOT put them under the seat!!!
mickwinf:
Bryan air filter is new no obstructions did wonder about motad exhaust will try another system see if that improves it
z1100r:
Exhaust would have to be pracitically blocked up for it to knock that much power off. You are talking about only being able to rev this bike to 6 grand on the road....theres something serious somewhere and I wouldn't ride it about too much until you find it. This serious a fault and power sap can end up in mechanical failure like a holed piston or seize.
What sort of speed are you doing at 5,000 revs.
SteveD CB500K0:
Should be about 60 mph
z1100r:
Some more Ideas...Are the carb slides the right way round (can you get them wrong i cant remember), You definately only bent 1 valve didnt you..??, It sounds bad enough to have a brake stuck on.
