ok, so as if its not enough that the alternator went out on my truck and ill have to wait till wednesday before i get that...the bike has started to misbehave. its an 06 with 1050 on the clock. its been in the 30's here all week, so im wondering if cold or humidity (also been quite humid) has a part to play in this. so a couple days ago i noticed that i could start the bike up fine, pop it into gear, and go. id ride down to my classes (~15 miles) and when id come to a stop the engine would just stall out. and in order to start it up it took a bit of throttling to get it up and stay lit. so yeah..its been annoying but today was a different story. got off work to go home...REALLY not wanting to run..not even just sitting there at idle. never had a prob before. when i hop on to ride..i noticed only 1 cyl is firing. so im riding along..and after a bit the bike comes to life and i get the 2nd cyl back. did a little hiccup..then was ok except for stops...still wanted to stall. so i get home, park, take off my gear, and go out to do some snooping. i start it up with very little choke and she purred like a kitten. revved it up...sounded great. WTF is going on? i couldnt imagine its the gas cuz i put fresh in last week and it didnt act like that.
anywho, i guess ill go pull the plugs tomorrow. thats just odd that it started doing that. and after it got a little warmer it acts like nothing ever happened. it wouldnt be so bad if this wasnt my only means of transport for the next 4 days...but this is rediclous! if this dosent clear up by the time i have my truck im gonna trailer the SOB into the kawi dealer cuz i didnt pay for that extended warranty for nothin.
in the mean time..ideas?
