I registered for the Vmax forum as soon as I got my vmax last month. Been fun reading the posts and an invaluable resource for me as I go through my new to me bike and get it as perfect as I can. Thanks to this forum I've been able to tackle my dual disc brakes, order the correct gaskets and washers for my left side, select the correct paint to use for my heads, and pick some good tires for it. Now I'm at the point where I need a little help. I went for a ride yesterday and noticed that if in lower gear around 2-4k rpms, when I twisted the throttle just a little bit (like if you were going up a hill and needed more throttle to maintain speed), that the bike hesitated a little and then would accelerate. Almost like a delay or flat spot. Wasnt as noticeable if I opened it up all the way but definitely is there in gears 2-5. I had been running seafoam through my first tank and this was my first ride on a tank without seafoam and I'm thinking that might of richened it up or masked the issue but I'm not smart enough to know that for sure. Dont know what my next step needs to be whether drilling out a/f mixture screw or messing with pilots or looking at air filter or what. Hoping to avoid taking it in somewhere thats for sure. Any thoughts or info would be incredibly helpful and appreciated though, thanks!
