Living in Bali & recently moved from an Intruder to Bandit 400 with great success.
Spent a lot of money with general maintainence which included carb overhaul ,dics,complete oils,seals,discs.......original spare parts etc,bike is in original condition & was running well.
Recently the bike has showed intermittent acceleration problems,today running great,yesterday felt like running on 1 cylinder,tommorrow who knows?
Limited technical expertise here as cooters are the norm so will be helpfull to offer some suggestions.
Thanks for any help.

There's plenty of helpful 400 folks that can help sort out about anything...
...so, I'm going to move this into the 400 section where they'll be more likely to see it. :)

:welcome: Chef!

I'd suggest browsing or searching this forum.  Common problems are blocked carbs or electrical issues (crappy wire/boot connections, bad coils or connections to the coils or bad black boxes...).  

More info would be helpful, too.  Is it only acting up in certain rev ranges?  Only when cold?  Only when hot?  Totally random?  If it runs poorly at idle, let it warm up and see which pipes are hot and which are cold.  

Good luck!
