Default 96 F3 600 SOMETIMES Cutt Off

Hey CBR Fam
Have this 96 cbr f3
when you the throttle to give it gas like a quick twist it might cut off!
If twist it slow a few times it's just fine?!

Also
when say I'm riding I give her gas but she slowly reacts to it then catches up?
then I down shift it might just cut off completely.

Does my idle have anything to do with it?
how high or low should it be or open?

i checked the fuel just to make sure it's On and not on Off or RES

thanks a lot

Doe the issue with the throttle get worse as the bike warms up or does it go away as the bike warms up. I'm guessing you're bike is running fat as I've had this issue too.
A way you can tell the bike is running fat is by looking at your plugs. There are usually only three conditions you'll see (there are many more by the way) which are soiled (from running fat), normal condition, and a white(ish) condition (from running lean). Here is a link for a good visual on what you're looking for in a plug: DIY: CLEANING/REPLACING YOUR SPARK PLUG - Bikers-India.com . Pull your plugs and see how things are burning. This will then give you an idea on what to look for in the carbs.
I had a couple float heights that were out of spec, float needles were worn out, and a couple enrichner needles that were worn. I pretty much just ended up rebuilding the carbs with new parts which solved my issue of running fat.

I would do basic clean up! Oil change, new plugs, and do a really deep clean on the carbs using a compressor to make sure the valleys are clear. Then go from there. Usually a good carb clean will help with the problem!

Default Been there before

Definitely a fuel issue pull your carbs, clean/clear all the Jets and passage ways, make sure all the float needles are cleaned and free from any gunk replace them if they have a ring around the tip, make sure you be careful not to tear any float bowl gaskets, do not play with the carb synchronize screws, clean your petcock especially the screen it's that little bowl on the bottom that tends to get built up and if she runs better after that get the carbs synchronized and idle drop done to it and she should be snappy again👌👌
