F4i bogging under throttle

OK, I recently brought my bike (02 F4i) out of storage because my wrist had healed enough for me to ride again, but somethings messing up with it. I rode for about ten minutes then killed it so I could tighten the chain. When I went to start the bike again it almost didn't, like it didn't have enough power, but it barely started. While I was still sitting in neutral I tried to give it some gas, but it just bogged down. I tried again and it bogged. I tried a third time, but this time I really gave it some and it bogged for a second then died. Now it won't even start, but I think the battery is dead. What could be causing my problems?

Could be the gas; however, i think you have a problem with your fuel supply. Maybe you got a clogged up filter or hose. Once you get everything running put a bottle of fuel injector or carburetor cleaner in the gas.

Re: F4i bogging under throttle

If it runs fine at idle then you give it gas and it bogs----->


Fuel regulator....

Re: F4i bogging under throttle

Ok, I changed the gas for some fresh stuff and added a bottle of FI cleaner and now it runs like the day I bought it. Thanks for the help and sorry for being retarded lol.

Re: F4i bogging under throttle

Well, crap! I rode for about an hour today then parked it in the garage and when I went back out a few hours later there was a small puddle of oil under it (smaller around than a cd). What might the problem be now?
