Problem with Top End Honda CB360T

[Roch48]

Going down storrow dr the other day I got to around 50mph. When I went to speed up to 60 the engine bogged down and didn't speed up for a few seconds. Any Idea's?

Also Anyone know what kind of oil the 75' CB360T uses?

It actually felt alot like i was running out of gas.. though the tank is full.

You left many things out of the picture.

Is this a stock bike?

My guess is float settings or jetting.

Mostly stock the only things that are not stock (at the moment) are the mufflers.

It uses 10w/40 MOTORCYCLE oil (wrong additives in automotive/car oils make clutch slip)
You will be OK with Shell Rotella 15w/40 diesel oil but motor will need warming up
The acceleration problem could be multitude of different things.
Are mufflers straight through? that will make it lean
Is ignition timing set correctly?
are air filters original?
They will be 'blocked' even if they look clean as the fiber will have absorbed water vapour over the years

The mufflers are 12" "shorty things that I hate" and the pipes are wrapped ( I wrapped them but this was a problem before the were wrapped )

Not sure about the Ignition Timing (First motorcycle)

Its a possibility, I bought it about a month ago. Never asked if they were original or not.

Also, do you know the correct float height?
