I have a 1987 JS 550. I was riding it at the river this weekend and it ran great, however when I stopped for a but and then got back on it it would only go about a quarter throttle then start to bog. There is air in the fuel lines also. Anyone have any suggestions of what would cause this?

The return fuel line sounds like it needs a restrictor or your vented wrong.

Where would you find a restrictor?

It's a small piece of brass with a very small hole in the center to restrict the fuel on the return side so that the carb stays primed.
