Ok, wtf did I do to it this time.
I go to practice at this industrial park in my area, and before I get there, my bike starts acting up, for those who dunno, its an 04' f4i.
But heres the deal, Im riding along the highway, and go to pass someone, and so I strike it, at about 9000 rpms, the revs jsut shoot up and theres no power behind them.
I think nothing of it, and I go to this spot,I start clutching some up trying to work on my throttle and brake and I get about 2 in.
After that, I try to clutch more up and when I snap the clutch out, the revs are just shooting up and theres no power to send me up onto the back wheel. So I just came home because I dont wanna **** it up anymore then it is.
What the hell is the deal? I may have kicked this **** this morning, so what the hell is this **** for? It might be the cause of my problems.

dude your clutch is slipping...duh
did your clutch come out of adjustment? check the cable adjusters on the clutch perch and were the cable connects to the motor, I bet they lossened up.

Oh damn, Ill check em, I did **** with them when I put that raptor lever on a while back, so that screw is the idle adjustment though? How high up should I turn that idle up? I know some guys told me to turn it up while learning brake/throttle.

that **** was happening to me one time and turns out it was just a screw in my moose lever that keeps the lever tight if u run the adjuster loose, it was keeping the clutch from engaging all the way by basicly havin the lever partially pulled in. check something like that.

wow!
