Hello, my Yamaha Vmax 600sx -97 seems to run bad, can you tell by the video what may be wrong? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVAjMWAeFYI
Listen at 00:43-00:50 in the video, that was full throttle.
Sorry for my grammar/spelling I'm from sweden

Sounds like clutching to me. Clean the clutches and check for wear.
Yeah I was thinking of that too, some issue with the clutching. I don't know anything about clutching so I will probably hand it over to some yamaha mechanic who can take a look. How much do you think it would cost to fix it if I hand it over to some mechanic?
Was out on the lake, about 15 inches of snow on the video.
