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%]
[/size]Any help would be gratefully received.Cheers.Chris-a- aka Grizzler[size=78%]

Life is never complete. Once you've discovered rock music, beer, bikes & girls, you have the rest of your life to intimately explore each one.. Good luck with finishing that project.
