I realize this is a tech question but not that many people frequent that board and I need some answers quick.

We have an 05-06 GSXR1000 that was running great until a few races ago. Now it bogs down coming out of the turns. You can hear it sputtering down the straight-aways. It just doesn't seem to have any power.

It gets worse as the race night goes on. We have had a couple of evenings where it ran well in hot laps, started to fade in the heat race and was real bad in the feature.

We had the motor checked out and it's fine. I've been told everything from checking the battery to the possibility that the fuel pump might be over-heating or the fuel filters could be dirty.

Our battery tested fine and we cleaned out the filters. I am going to swap out the fuel pump.

Anyone run into something like this before?
