| stuttering bandit my bike, 1998 bandit 1200S (with vance and hines exhaust and jetted for it, but stock otherwise) has always been smooth off the line, but just this morning it was really stuttering when just taking off in 1st gear. it only has 2,300 miles on it. it would be fine once i got by 2500 rpms, but below that , just starting out off the line it would really stutter. it ran fine last night when i went to the bike night in lowell. what could it be? seems too early to have any major carb adjustments. |
