    Partial Throttle Hunting

    So I insured the Hawk the other day and went for a ride. Things were going smoothly but I noticed that the bike has developed a part throttle hunt/surge. It's almost as if you were about to run out of fuel. Wide open and roll on responce is fine. Any ideas' ?

    Carb boot leaking air?

      I checked that. Seems ok.I havn't played with the jetting over the winter -it ran great last fall. I was looking at the Factory web site and they mention that a lean condition can cause it- but without doing any changes over the winter I can't see that as the problem. It starts and runs well it just the part throttle at hiway speeds. Weird is all I can say.

        Maybe the carbs are a little gummed up?
