Re: Forum newboy needs advice.
Should still rev up with the valve shut just not as it should, I'd be concerned with the box of spares!
Ask previous owner?

Re: Forum newboy needs advice.
Ok stupid ideas first !
It's not been restricted or is not an import from America or france ( it is france that's limeted to 100bhp isn't it ? )
pop's & bangs , could be fueling they have a lot of electronics . think you might need a tuner .
more details needed ! has it still got cat fitted with O2 sensors what can's it got !
maybe take it back to the dealer & say "Dude WTF ! "

Re: Forum newboy needs advice.

Re: Forum newboy needs advice.
Gotta say Hash has a point about the plugs , people have said the irridium plugs can break down before the 6000 mile service on the later R1's if i'm not too pissed to remember correctly

Re: Forum newboy needs advice.
Welcome in mate.
Straight back to the dealer mate, let him sort it out or have you had it a while and if so has it just started.
Sounds like the AIS has been removed from your posts. Plugs can brake down as can the coil pack
Oh just have a quick look at the air filter

Welcome in mate. As Pete says sounds like the AIS has been removed for Smog Plates so no doubt its been on a dyno at some point. As said I would check all the induction/fuel side of things first.

Re: Forum newboy needs advice.
Cool help Guys.
Booked in Tuesday at Local Yamaha dealers, New Plugs it is then, I"ve just checked air filter, K&N one fitted like new, 3880 miles on bike, Tank taken off this morning to have a look, noticed air pipe from air box not fitted? could be getting some where.
If a pc has been fitted and now remove by the old owner, is there any connector plugs to check ?
