    I just bought my first 92 xj600 on Sunday. And just signed onto this site today. When I get on it and I am guessing gets around 6k it acts like it maybe isnt in gear anymore and the revs just shoot up. I dont really no any other way to explain it. Do you all think it is actually slipping out of gear or may be a carb issue or something. It doesnt fee like it is slipping out and then back into gear. With the way it revs up all of a sudden it just sort of acts like that. Its weird.
    Has anyone ever had anything like this?
