Please help: My DNA used to go really well, but recently it has started to lose power suddenly (top speed drops to 20mph). Then it will pick up again after a while.....but then it can go slow again. Today I took off the carb and cleaned the bottom jets (the ones easy to access). Now, although it revs fine as soon as I reach a certain speed (less than 15mph) the revs drop and I lose power. If I back off on the throttle then it picks up and feels like its going to accelerate but then once again when I get to a certain speed it loses power again...HELP!
I had that same problem, mine was because air was being sucked into the carb make sure it is all tight and check to see if your exaurst is fitted tightly

I have the same problem but once it warms up a bit more the bike starts to pick up once left on full throttle for about 10-20 secs it also makes my bike very very juicey as in 50 miles to the tank any other answers in more detail?

hi, i had this problem, i found out it was my automatic choke, to solve this problem i simply 'blanked' the hole that the automatic choke goes into the carburettor, you can simply do this by taking off the choke and then replacing it with a 2p coin to see if this is the fault.
