Hey folks,

Just looking for a bit info here and to see if a mates correct.

Recently I have noticed when the bike is up to operating temps and I open the throttle to give it some welly there is like an initial flat spot then you can fell it pull. close throttle and pen it does it again.

Mate said it is possibly the rubbers on the carb's are perished and letting in to much air which is messing up the mix.

Is it possibly this or something more sinister?

Bikes 1986 Honda VFR750FG, Serviced within last 2000miles (Including spark plugs) new chain and sprockets (Not sure if this matters)

Any help would be great cheers.

Edit: Forgot to say It also received a new Battery and Regulator/ Rectifier within the last 1k

LOL. will certainly have a look into it. it does feel down on power, but maby im just getting to used to it
 
Has anyone set up carbs with CARBTUNE gauges?

Im thinking about trying this when i take off the tank to inspect the Carb rubbers due to the above problem.

Is it easy enough. I have done most other mechanical type things. Just never played with carbs.
