I recently got side-swiped (hit and run) and side-surfed my CB750 going 40mph. Luckily I just got rashed but the bike's stator cap was completely grinded open, sparking and spewing out all it's oil for an entire city block.
Had the bike towed to a garage, put on a new stator cap (stator/timing seemed untouched), synced the carbs, lubed her up and she was back on the streets.
Starts, idles, and rides amaizingly, no bog, no hang ups, but something is def wrong... I can climb RPMs very fast, seems the power is there, but I burn through 5 gears just to get to 50mph. Attempting anything faster and its screaming around 7/8k (no tach). Seems to have less torque the higher I shift.
Perhaps it could be the timing advance? Stator? Sprockets? I don't know where to look first or how to diagnose this. I'm in the scooter lane fellas, please help!
