For a year I have been reading the threads on the stuttering problem and that it does not seem to have a definitive answer. I got on mine Sunday and fired it up for a ride and it started the stuttering at different RPMs. Nearly dropped it at the first turn when it lost power. Riding on the highway about 4000, it would drop 500RPM for a half second and come back. Does not seem as bad at high RPM. I had not been on it for a couple of weeks so I thought maybe it just needed the cobs blown out. So at a stop sign on a small two lane I decided to open it up. Not a miss at hard accelleration and shifting(I don't know how fast these are, but it indicates 80MPH at 8000RPM in 3rd) but as I went back to normal riding it started again. I never felt it was going to quit on me but it is annoying and would not be safe to ride like this all the time. I guess I will start down the list and try to figure it out. Any help is appreciated.
It is a 2000, 1200 with about 16,000 miles.
