Title: Slight acceleration hesitation?
Post by: PegasusIII on October 27, 2009, 03:56:56 PM

I have a 93 GS500.  upon acceleration, the bike accelerates smoothly from a stop, slightly hesitates around 4k rpms, then accelerates smoothly right after.  it does this in every gear.  ideas anyone?

carbs could be dirty, or need rejetted.  how many miles? valves been checked?  any mods to the bike? such as air filter, muffler, or ignition advancer?
