Exclamation 300ex only half rev..???

i have a 1998 honda 300ex and just put in new rings. has a big bore kit in it. timing is right on and no odd noise when idle. fires right up and sounds great again but for some reason it will only rev half throttle and then revs out. all power is gone at that point. need some help i have tried going one tooth back on the timing and goin on tooth ahead and does not change,.any if would be great.

Welcome to the forums. Did it just start this after installing the new rings and was it already running right with the big bore kit before?

X3 on cleaning the carb. Carb cleaning is a good first step.

the carb was not touched when the rings were put in only thing was i pulled the old piston rings off and put on new ones. sounds like the rev limiter is peging out when its only at half throttle. i will clean the carbs though. thank you everyone and any more info will help.

When you set the cam in how did you install it and what did you adjust the valves to?
