Hi guys. In need of help!!!! Anything over 2/3 throttle over 5k revs and it Boggs down and won't pick up any speed. I've changed KN filter and fuel pump and fuel pump filter. Still the same. It might be irrelevant but it didnt do this before it was stolen?? Fuel pressure is down as well. HELPPPPP!

Jeff, same deal with mine (2010 GenII, 33,000k's). I just got a new fuel pump yesterday but not installed yet. Another member in Vic has same issues too.
Have you been using BP Ultimate? Both mine and other bike have. Mine started doing it quite suddenly only a few weeks ago. I pulled out my current pump a week ago and it was quite clean, but making a shit load of noise. I can now get past 7k but it is seriously starved for fuel above that.

I think it's called a fuel pressure regulator. I was told to change that. I will check the inlet metal gauss thingy. Cheers
