RE: Having some issues, this is good
You know your electrical is dry for sure? All your fuses are ok. Did you drain the bowls? If not drain the bowls of the carbs first, then look into pulling the carbs apart. Sounds like it could be a vacuum problem also. Check the 4 hoses comming off the back of the carbs, they should attach to the airbox, they might have come off when you wash it? If they're off, put them on or plugthem off completely, that's all the mounts on the airbox do. Dunno man, good luck, I'll keep tryin' though, post your results.

RE: Having some issues, this is good
Well... until I read that last post, I was going to say I was sure of your problem... but I'll say it anyway. My bike has something wrong with that little drain hole/line thats inside of the filler cap thats between the actual inside of the tank and the outside. Every time it rains or I spray off my bike some water drains into there, and instead of draining onto the ground, it goes into my tank. (There's a crack in that line inside my tank, and fuel will drain out of it too when its really full = I need a new tank but $$$, different story)
So I'll be ridin around andafter about 5 miles or soit does what you described. Sounds like a harley or lawnmower or something.. Has no power and sounds like its only firing on one or two cylinders. Its just some water in the gas. What I always do is take it out on a highway and run the **** out of it. doesn't matter what gear or anything, just keep the throttle wide open and it'll spit and sputter and eventually after three or four times it'll clear it all out, and the bike is fine.
This may or may not be your problem, but it happens regularly to my bike EVERY TIME IT RAINS, but its no big deal. But before you go blowin big $$$, try that and see if it helps at all.
