1997 indy lite deluxe
I have a 97 Indy Lite Deluxe 340. It is 98% mint with only 500 miles on it. For some reason it started bogging and not going any where. If you pick the back of the sled up and gas it, it will eventually wind out. But any load it just sits and bogs. Almost like taking off in a standard car in 4th gear. Ive checked compression. 101psi each cylinder. Carbs are spotless. New plugs. New CDI/Coil. New fuel lines and filter. New line in the tank. Tank has been cleaned and now has non ethanol 91 octane with K100. Clutches are as good as a maintained sled with 500 miles should be. Replaced crank seals. New belt. With the belt off the track spins free. I am at a total stand still...... And help would be greatly appreciated.

Check the pilots.. most pilots jets a re very prone to gummimg up and running bad on the low end. Net I would look for warn clutch parts.
