No power on slope

Terryiom · Jun 5, 2006

Have a 2001 R6, it rides fine and pulls really well until I get home. The problem starts when I pull in to my drive - about 30 degrees slope, the bike just has no power. I have cleaned and rebalanced the carbs, new plugs, it does not have a dyno fitted.

It is if the bike is getting startved of fuel on the slope, any ideas I can give a go.

Thanks.

Check you oil too see if you have too much which in theory could reduce performance. Fuel should not be the problem.

What RPM's are you running when you notice this?

Oil has been changed recently and is the correct level.

It is confusing as it is fine when you go out when cold and start the bike, it ticks over and revs no problems, then you can pull away up the drive. The problem happens when the engine is hot.

Tonight I could open the throttle all the way without any revs, when it was hot, but cold it was fine.
