Heavy Throttle & no pull low down - 2005 FZS1000
#1
Ok So I haven't been riding the FZS for a long while, first winter and then ULEZ and Jumped on the bike today and found some niggles -
  • I have been riding a GSF1200 and now 1250 all this time and the FZS feels gutless below 2500rpm compared to the bandits. When I go to pull away half the time Im bogging the bike down untill I slip the clutch and once I get above 2000-2500 all is as expected and  bike pulls like a turbine.
  • The throttle action feels very heavy and again it might be the bandit versus the FZS again, but I don't remember the FZS throttle always being that heavy.
So my plan off attack over the weekend weather permitting is -
  • check exup vale is moving freely and smoothly and check the action of the exup cables and servo - for the bogging down issue (if the valve isnt returning back to closed at low rpm - would this even be the causing of the bogging down or is it all down to the Bandits just having more torque pull at very low rpm?
  • disconnect the throttle cables and check the throttle twist body moves freely, check the inner cables move freely .
What else should I be looking for or checking, suggestions welcome.
