Revs..

Hey all.

On my way home from work today while changing gears, say from 3rd-4th my ZX12R revs kind of shot up just as I released the lever. It only happened when going up in gear, and at speeds over 40mph. It has never happened before to me. The revs would shoot up without me dragging on the trottle. Strange...

Any idea what is causing it?
Thanks.

I wondered why the baseball kept getting bigger. Then it hit me.
