If it revs to 7 it means the CDI isnt responding properly. If it reads 3rpm more than it should ie. revs at 4 grand then it is the fuel pump.

Havent heard of the 6rpm reading.

Sounds to me like it could be a weak battery.

It may have enough juice to prime the fuel pump, but not enough to turn the engine over. That and rev counters can do some really wierd things with dodgy batteries!

check to see if the battery terminals are getting warm, if they are it could be that you dont have a good enough connection/furring up of the terminals, give em a clean up and tighten if that dont work it could be the battery is on the way out/flat as mentioned! had this on another bike once was cleaned started no problem!
