    hi there, i ride a 2004 bonny t100 and i've got a recurring problem that's driving me nuts ... when i ride the bike hard the power can often suddenly drop off. the delivery of power then becomes really erratic and sometimes i can't get it over 60 mph. i've had a couple of mechanics look at it, checking the sparks, balancing the carbs etc but to no avail ... there's no crap in the fuel tank so far as i can tell. anyone got any ideas ...? i'm no mechanic myself - any advice greatly appreciated. ta.

    Have you tried running something like redex through. Fuel can go off and it might be clogging the carbs.
