This happened to a buddy of mine a couple of years ago. It was either one of the 3??? relays or the fuel pickup in the tank. I'm sorry I can't remember which it was. After it was fixed, that 1000 really climbed well.

Sounds like a fuel stavation problem.........when is the last time you replaced your battery? Possible fuel pump problem, or fuel pickup screen, or even the fuel pump relay??
