2012 M8 loss of power?

Hey guys so I took my sled out for a rip yesterday and she is kind of hesitant of the start and has nothing after half throttle, was wondering if anyone knew what was going on? Possibly the spark plugs? Thanks.

Just a thought, first trip out? maybe plugged or partially plugged exhaust pipe/can? Rodents etc don't usually move into mufflers/exhaust till parked for a couple years due to gas and oil residue but its worth checking????

I would say old gas and sticking exhaust valves.

yea I would check your power valves, maybe new plugs and fuel!

sounds like power valves to me my sled was doing this I put in a fresh tank of fuel and it cleaned up within 15 mins...heatted up the old gunk and let her go

Just filled the tank with new gas before I took it out. And had it pulled apart this afternoon and all the plugs look fine a little oily.
