Ok people, first i'm new to the forum so i'd like to say hey, and it seems like this is a great source of information.
This past saturday, I bought a 2000 Kawasaki ZXI 1100. It seems to be in pretty good shape, and i figured it would be a great play toy. I took it out Sunday, with some friends on a pontoon just to see how it would run. It cranked up great at the ramp and i took off. Everything worked awesome - the gauges, the auto trim system, it all worked out great. I rode it for probably 30 minutes, and then it was just like a switch kicked off, and it would barely run. It never shut off on me, but the rpm climbed real slow, and barely got to 30 mph. I just seemed like it shut down into limp mode or something. Is there any explanation to this?? I tied it to the pontoon boat to let it sit for a little while and then was going to try it again, but then the rain came in so we had to leave.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!
