well from what i've read i think i know that my RR is failing but i'm looking for confirmation before i swap out with a GSXR model.

bike has 25k on it and stock RR. about 3 months ago while riding gas light came on (i had 60 or so miles left on the tank) and the bike just die,d cut out, nothing. i coasted to a stop tried to start. it cranked and cranked finally fired and ran (weakly, seemed almost to be running on 1 cylinder) rode it a mile to a friends house to see if i could figure out what was wrong. it sat for 15 min i started i and she purred like usual...strange i jump back on and ride the 25 miles home without a problem. i ride all summer like this putting on 5,000ish miles with no issues.

fast forward to 3 days ago...i drop it off to have it jetted for my exhaust/air filter and on the way around the block from getting it jetted the low fuel light comes on again and it starts running rough. take it back to the shop and check the battery (don't remember the volts at idle but the mechanic said it was ok) start it take it up to 1200 14.4 up to 3000 she starts to die, spudder, chough and act funny and drops to 12. something. battery is fairly new and had a good charge (ground was a little loose but now enough to make a difference it still had solid contact)

from what i've read RR failure or RR failure soon?

does it matter if i pick up a gsxr 600 or 1000 RR?


any input will be greatly appreciated!!!!!


thanks guys
