Hi, all.

I'm in the process of re jetting my carbs and had a few questions.

Rode the bike today and here's what I found.

1. Bike seems to have lost torque and power .

2. Engine coughs when blipping throttle down gears. Backfires through exhaust also, but not every time.

3. Power loss seems worse after engine braking for any period

4. When cracking throttle open from idle, engine seems to hesitate. Not a lot but enough for me to notice.

5. The bike generally feels restricted.

Are these symptoms of running rich?

I'm thinking that after adding larger main jetts I may need to lift the tank and get a performance air filter to get more air in?

Any help apriciated. Cheers,
