    Stage 7 loses power at 7000 rpm

    I recently bought an 88 with a stage 7 jet kit and 4 into 1 kerker. It sounds good, but I think it is lacking power, especially at 7,000 rpm. It accelerates smoothly until 6,500 then it will hesitate for half a second, pull to 7,000 and then it is like it hits a rev limiter--no more power. I...

    Carb/low end power

    Put in the Morley stage 7 jet kit and marks custom 4 to 2 exhaust over the winter. The bike has run great. It does run a little rich so I backed the clip off the fuel needle one notch. Helped out a little. Ran the bike for 2 months and felt fine. Just ran it the day for 150 miles and the last 20...
