wonder if it has pods on it and a filter on the end of the breather hose, may be plugged up
now that made a "click" noise in my head, if you have stock airbox, could be something shifted and covered the air intake (like a rain coat :blush: ) idles nice, even runs nice at small throtle openings but falls on it's face if opened up too much. I know this doesn't expain the oil, two problems maybe?

I have some parts you can have I'll take inventory and get back with you. I think I have some coils if you need them. I would just get a set of dynas, but if you want stock ones I might still have them.
Oil blowing out of the crank case??

What are Dynas? E-ignition? I sure feel dumb sometimes.
Used to service foreign cars for a living, so I'm no idiot, but reading these forums makes me feel pre-historic. I surely appreciate any help. Yeah, got oil all over my new shoes that day. Before that, I did notice a small amount of oil leaking from the same place. At first I thought it was a head gasket, but the engine was dry everywhere except the crank breather.
The oikl has less than five hundred miles and looks like it just came out of the bottle. 10w40

Since you have the valve cover off, check all the valve clearances. If they are small then that explains the lost power off the freeway, small clearances can produce that symptom... The clearance on a cold engine should be from .08mm to .18mm. Here is a link to a valve clearance chart kz650files.kz650.info/adobe/650ValveLash.pdf
The oil blow-by may just have been from overfilling the crankcase, you said the oil was fresh.
Check the oil level in the sight glass when it's on the center stand, it should be in the middle of the sight glass.
Will the bike start up and run now, or is it dead?
