I have a 97 SL 900 with 140.6 hours on it. Out on the river today, I had problems getting it to run above 5900 rpms (~48 mph) at WOT. Two days ago, it was running a little better, but would not go above 6300 (~55) mph. Time out before that it would run at 6750 to 6800 (~61 mph) all day with no problem at all. If I let go of the throttle to 3/4, it seems as it wants to pick up and as I slowly apply more throttle it will go up to about 6300, then when I get to full throttle, it dies back down to 5900. I recently switched from running 92 octane to 87, as several of the guys I ride with say there is no need to, seeing as the ski is stock. Could this the source of the problem, or am I looking at something larger? Thanks in advance.
