Or may be it could just be that the main jets are clogged up and need cleaning as if your saying it coughs and splutters at 5k. :lol:

Thanks for all the reply's people! I took one of the plugs out cleaned it up and put it back in, then i took the air box off and mopped up the oil from under it and i also noticed that when i did my oil and filter change that i put a bit too much oil in, so drained some out. Even though i filled it up as per the haynes manual (2.4l)
I took it out for a spin after and it was fine and it's not been playing up since! :)

Hi, yet again my bike is playing up :evil: It was this time last week the first problem occured. Basically it's doing the same as before, o.k up to 7000revs, then after that it will just run like a bag of sh*t and when i pull the clutch in while riding and rev it all the way up to 14.5 when it comes back down i get popping out of the exhaust, bit like mini backfire's, it's really starting to wind me up now what could it be?
As i said before all i did was clean up one of the spark plugs and mop the oil up from under the airbox and it was fine for a week but now a week on and it crap again? Please help guys!
Cheers

if it is electrical then it explains the intermittent problems you are having...........usually if its mechanical or a carb problem then it would more than likely happen all the time.
