My Ltd has this strange little problem, which can be quite scary...the engine dies at around 4500rpm - usually when i first start out but intermittently when i ride. i have to jam thru the gears or rev the hell out of it to keep it going. had a bunch of people look at it and i guess it could be a few things - if anyone tells me it´s my carbs - i´ll strangle them after i spent a few extra hundred on getting the carbs done after the bike had been sitting for a year. any idea? seals? valves? fixing clues?
happy trails,
r
