The bike starts fine, idles fine, runs good until about mid throttle then starts cutting out and eventually dies out unless I back off the throttle.
Could this possibly be a bad CDI or coil...anyone have a simular problem?
I am in the process of checking the PV, the reeds and the carb...just wondering if it could be electrical??
Thanks for any input or advice.

doubt it's electrical. usually the cdi either works or it doesn't.
i had this exact same problem on another bike i was working on yesterday. ended up float level was too low, and bike would run out of fuel at about half throttle or under a load. i could putt around all day, but when i opened throttle under a load it would die until i let off the throttle. i thought it was the advancer/ or weak spark (points)... it would run fine on the stand. so just because it feels electrical (it was like a on/off switch at half throttle..) doesn't mean it is...
