Working on a good friend of mines sled. Was sitting for an unknown amount of time. Drained the fuel, put new plugs in, pulled the carbs and cleaned them, put new petals in the v force 3 reed cages and the darn thing will not run right. It has uni pod filters and some kind of aftermarket can on the stock pipes. It starts up cold ok and idles nice but when you rev it up on the stand and let off it acts like the spark is being killed momentarily and then returns to idle normal. Took it for a tip today after it warmed up for a minute and it didn’t even want to take off. The more throttle you give it the worse it was. Acting like it’s on a rev limiter and backfiring through the pipes. Bully the time I got back it was running crappy on like 2 cylinders

This may actually be the TORRS. CHeck to see if your throttle cable is too tight. Should have some slack in it at rest. You can bypass it also to see if that’s it.

I tried unplugging it from the carbs

Didn’t plug them back into eachother?

Ok thank you I will try that out. Not really familiar with Yamaha sleds of this era
