#123356 twostroke (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 85 The WOT test (wide open throttle) 3 Years, 4 Months ago   This thread discusses the Content article: The WOT test (wide open throttle) While attempting to perform the above test I found the bike pulls well into the middle to upper middle range and then seems to bog down,stutter and refuses to accelerate any further.Is this a condition of an overly rich situation or?Any help advice much appreciated   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #123363 Flash (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 119 Re:The WOT test (wide open throttle) 3 Years, 4 Months ago   Souds like your hitting the rev limiter. I believe that stock setting is 4200 rpm.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #123370 twostroke (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 85 Re:The WOT test (wide open throttle) 3 Years, 4 Months ago   I've hit the rev limiter before and it is much more sudden,aggressive in nature.This seems to be much more subdued wanting to go but being held back.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #123384 SobaCracka (User) It's best to eat crow while fresh. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1948 Re:The WOT test (wide open throttle) 3 Years, 4 Months ago   Hmmmm, that's what mine does when it hots the rev limiter which I believe is at 4250 rpm on the 1600s and 4750 on the 1700s. (won't swear to those numbers, though)   Logged     Earl in Catonsville, MD   The administrator has disabled public write access. #123465 stanag (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 355 Re:The WOT test (wide open throttle) 3 Years, 4 Months ago   Is it possible that you are starving the carb? float not set correctly, dirty fuel filter, etc. Stan   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #123534 bowhunter4265 (User) Detroiter by Birth Eastsider by the Grace of God Gold Boarder Posts: 700 Re:The WOT test (wide open throttle) 3 Years, 4 Months ago   size engine and jetting info would help... if you checked the other possible problems like stanag said, float fuel issues and so on.. the problem you described would be getting too much fuel, go down a jet or so if it had run up to full throttle and when you back off accels lean, up a jet 1700 engines varied opinions - dyno around the 185 as low as 180lean and high 195rich , mik 170... stock pilot unless modified beyond stock engine(hi comp pistons or big bore kit). rev limiter on 1700 4750ish - 1st gear 40mph, 2nd 60, 3rd 85, 4th 108 approx mph you would hit the limiter 1600 engines not my fortay many articles for jetting around the forum..   Logged     Paul K&N, V&H Powershots, 185DJ, Stock Pilot, 3.25pms   The administrator has disabled public write access.
