Sometimes my bike will seem like it's missing 30 or so hp when I give it gas under load. Not actually bog though, just not produce any power. If I pull in the clutch and rev the hell out of it it'll go. Also it sounds poppy when idling and just off idle.

I removed left and right kips covers. The right side . . I pulled the rod out. The first 1/2 or so it just comes out with no resistance then it because like it's spring loaded and is difficult to pull out but is doable.

The left side when I removed it was so full a shiny black spooge and carbon I was a little suprised. Also, I had the bike idling when I took this cover off and the bike started to idle faster.

Where is this spring that people talk about?

Also, when idling I can see the arm the pulls the rod out moving. It takes the slightest touch of the throttle and it pops the rod out that first 1/2 I mentioned earleir.

Does it sound like I have problems with my KIPS?

Thanks

John
