Ok everyone any assistance with this problem wont get my hair back but it will help me stop making the head sized hole in my garage wall any bigger. My 03 fzs600 foxeye is playing silly beggars. If I ride for several miles at a speed over 70mph she dies as in fuel starvation.  A few on/offs of the ignition and the cards are primed and were moving again. 60 mph is fine she will run all day. So logic says the fuel pump is caput yet it seems to be in fine working order, points and all. So could the tps cause the pump to pump slow?  Even if the tps checks out ok when tested?    Help!!!!!

Ok, I'll admit my schoolboy error.
I'm swapping my fzs600 2003 foxeye engine and all is going well until I fit the carbs. I have 2 small metal pipes, facing upward, situated on the front of the carbs. 1 between carbs 1&2 the other between 3&4. There is a small pipe outlet on the upper right hand side of the radiator which i am thinking should connect to the 2 on the carbs. I have no recollection  if I took these pipes off or not. Can anyone help as Haynes is as useful as ever on this matter?

Hi guys,
I am experiencing a strange problem, well 2 problems but i think they may well be related.
My baby is a 2003 FZS600 foxeye (carbs not injection).
So here it is. I switch her on, let the fuel pump stop clicking and press the button for an instant start with no choke needed, unless deep winter is upon us. so far so good. She pulls well though the revs and has no signs of any problems. Problem 1 is after riding for several miles, say about 10 miles, at low speed stop start at 30 -40mph,  she will bog down on acceleration. If i get to ride at a constant speed of over about 40mph she clears up and runs fine but the problem returns after a few miles of congestion.
Problem 2 is when i get to the faster part of my trip to work i can accelerate and have my arms pulled out of there sockets but,[/size][size=78%] [/size][/size]i cannot constantly run at over 65mph or she dies, dropping to 3 pots then 2 then dies.[size=78%][/size][size=78%] T[/size][/size]hat problem would seem to me to be the fuel pump as when i switch the ignition on and off say 10 times she starts and runs fine. [size=78%]
[/size]Has anyone had either of these problems and found a solution?[size=78%]
