I tried to ride my motorcycle last night and it had a really bad hesitation/bog. Anything other then very light throttle results in me not going anywhere. If I go full throttle I actually slow down. After a few seconds it may lurch forward some then slow down again. I wasnt sure if the bike was going to make it home, its pretty bad. It idles fine and revs fine in nuetral, its only a problem under load.
Now, the bike was outside in that really bad thunderstorm so I figured something might have gotten wet. Its been out in the sun all day but it still has the same problem. Plus, I've ridden in some bad storms before and never had any issues. So, anyone have any ideas?

you might have water i the tank. either get some gas dry or syphon in it put some fresh gas in it. thats what i would check first... motorcycle covers for the win!

Its also possible the choke is sticking open - check to make sure it moves free.

deifnitely sounds like an air/fuel ratio problem. i wouldn't be concerned about water in the tank. my rc car acts exactly the same way when i have the mixture fucked up... sooo check the choke, and maybe you jst need your carbs tuned? did this happen all of a sudden or gradual?

hrmph... i'd think water in the tank would be noticeable at pretty much all rpms, no?

well, as seems to be the tradition with my bike, it fixed itself. Must have been some water stuck in something. I let the bike sit for awhile idling to build up a bunch of heat and rode it while ragging on it some. It was better. Let it idle some more, did the same thing, runs fine now.
