Got a strange problem with my '94 CBR600 F2. It dies after riding it for
about 2-3 miles, like it starving for fuel. It will start again after some
time and takes many cranks. It seems to run fine with the choke on full.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Your carburetors are all gummed up from evaporating gasoline.
Add 4 or 5 ounces of the non-aerosol Berryman B12 Choke and Carburetor
Cleaner to a full tank of gasoline and ride the bike until the
carburetors are clean.
It wouldn't hurt to replace the fuel filter.

If I have a can full of liquid Wynnes carb cleaner (maybe 6-8oz) in half
a tank of gas will that mess up things? I also tried spraying aerosol
carb cleaner into the airbox and it is supposed to slow engine down, but
infact speeded it up.

I dunno. What's in Wynnes carb cleaner? Chemicals like acetone,
toluene, methyl alcohol
and xylene are good for dissolving gum and varnish, but stuff vaguely
identified as "petroleum
distillate" is better for lubricating fuel injectors.

Yes that's it. Closest to B12 I can get here.
