bike won't rev past 9k please help
hey guys, im new to the forums and to riding. i picked up a 2000 CBR 600F4 with about 8k miles on it a little over a month ago. my problem is that the bike won't rev up past 9k rpm in any gear. i top at 115 because it won't go anymore. when i hit 9k i get this weird kind of ringing like sound and the bike starts to vibrate alot. i've asked some friends and some say it is a fuel problem, possibly dirty carb, or filters. others say it could be that my bike has a limiter on it or something like that. anyone know what the problem might be? any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

Sounds like the ignition timing is retarded.
The truth is I have no idea, I just felt like replying to a post. Good luck. After you get it fixed, post the solution, i'd be interested.
