Open to suggestions........My 1200 trophy has been kept inside (and I mean in the house--I'm single) all winter here in Nevada. Miles, less than 8000. Kept on a trickle charger and started every few days.
Today I started it and it had an intermittant misfire on the exhaust cycle, one cylinder on the right exhaust, and it would pop out the exhaust when accelerated.
Need suggestions before I strip the bike needlessly.

Thanks to all in advance,
Jim

You have probally fouled a sparkplug(s). Without riding her and just letting her idle will do it everytime. Plus it doiesn't cost anything to check!
