Re: not revving
if its failing to rev out with both ignitions then.......
it it running on 4
carbs all ok ?
all 4 plugs ok
cam timing ok
after that I'd guess you might have serious issues

Re: not revving
"was running ok before"
before what ?
Still sounds very much like a restricted CDI...........clearly its not but I cant think what else would cause it to just stop at 10K

Re: not revving
I do know that ZXRs seem to really hate being laid up...............always gives me problems getting the damn things to fire up even after a full rebuild.
Could it be a damaged diaphram in the carbs ?
seems to me that since it's the carbs you have tinkered with that is where the problem might lie ? ?

Re: not revving
air/fuel mix?
what happens when it gets to 10k?
Did it used to rev past 10k?

Re: not revving
sounds like the speedo jap spec limiter is causing the problem
check the igniter for a pink wire does it have 1?
this wire has to be grounded thru a 10K Ohm resister
should fix the problem
Or the intake snorkel has been taken off.the top of the airbox.......
