Do you have K&N pod filters - or the std airbox with a K&N insert filter?????

Vs stock jetting, probably not. Try replacing the pilot jets; they're really hard to get clean.

These are the symptom if i give it a good twist of the throttle not a problem but if i get on the throttle lightly it sounds as though its bogging down
so to summarise straight line sprint would know anything wrong casual riding hmmmm problems
