2500 RPM Just feels lean.

Lugging, lack of throttle response, holding back, noticing something different in the sound of the exhaust, yes all of those "feelings" is what I am taking about. I just run the bike in a lower gear, tack at 3000+ and all seems well. That O2 sensor idea may be a thought after it goes out of warranty. Just seems like honda would notice that this bike rides very quiet at 25000-27000, but just like my old 40 year old 4 carb nightmare at the same speeds. Just a little whine before I settle in for the night.
I found this thread talking about the exact same thing.

So my o2 eliminator came in yesterday. Very fast shipping from the UK. I got it off Ebay.

It Worked! the bike is smooth any where from 1-3000 rpm. So riding in traffic or through town will no longer be frusrating. High Rpm's are still awesome as they always have been. Iv only put 20 or so miles on with it but absolutely a huge improvement. So we'll see how it goes after some more mileage. Thanks everyone for your Ideas and thanks Siggy for bringing the o2 eliminator to my attention.
I do still plan on getting my bike on the Dyno, with and with out the eliminator to see what it shows.
Well I ordered the part. cost 17.00 from the UK.
