Someone help me! I have an 86 gsxr 750 slingshot. Love the bike but it will not rev over 8000 rpm no matter what you do. The bike runs perfect except when trying to take off fast. It gets to the same rpm everytime and cuts right out. Its almost like a rev limiter. But like I said it runs perfect other than at high rpm. HELP!!!
This is hard to tell without riding it to feel the condition. Here are a few things that come to my mind.
1 Spark plugs or ignition system not able to handle the higher demands of the higher RPMs
2 battery or charging system not creating enough power to meet the higher demands of the bike (ignition and fuel systems)
3 Fuel flow to the carbs is low or the main jet is clogged.
4 valve adjustment and or valve timing
Do you have any add ons, air shifter, lights, hydrolics? if so those modules may be bad causing them to short out under heavier loads.

By the way, it will rev past that sitting still, just not under load!!! HELP
Changed all the ignition system with factory. Brand new battery. Valves are relatively quiet. Thanks though.
