When I'm travelling at high (i.e. unrestricted autobahn) speeds, my 600 develops a real reluctance to accelerate.
I'll be doing over 7k rpm and when I open it up it just dies for about a second before picking up again, like I've actually switched the ignition off, which makes overtaking dangerous.
I've had the tank up and checked the fuel lines are in good condition, not kinked or blocked. I've changed the plugs and had it serviced but it makes no difference. The battery is in good condition, TPS is fine (jumping to 5k when tested) so I reckon the next stage is to check the carbs.
I've not checked the rubbers or stripped the carbs down because in my experience with car carbs, any leaking inlet rubbers or sticking needles affect the tickover/low revs more than high revs. Is that wrong though?
The next thing I was going to do is balance the carbs, but before I start I just wanted to know if there's anything obvious I've missed.
What do you think?

Broken, bruised, forgotten, sore,
too fucked up to care any more.
