    My zzr 400 has a "flat rev at 9500 rpm as well" My red line is at 13500. The bike use to rev freely until around 13500 rpm and now it won't even pass 9500 rpm. What could the cause be?

Hi!
Not being well familiar with the ZZr's however what is the Red LIne on this particular model? if it is around 10.000 then your rev limiter is kicking in stopping you blowing the engine.
Hope this helps!
