Problem solved
Well after a day of messing around the problem is solved! What I found was about an ounce of water in the hose from the fuel tank going to the solenoid which is attached to the charcoal canister for the evaporative emissions system.

Thank You
I have checked all vac connections and they are secure with no leaks, the throttle cable seems to be in good adjustment between the throttle bodies. Capt. What you describe is exactly what I am feeling especially when you say at 2500 it "Clears it's Throat" I will probably just look up the...

Thank You
I will check the vac lines and throttle cable free-play as you suggest. The air filter is in good condition. The best way I could describe the flat spot is if you accelerate from 2000 RPM the engine feels like it is starving for air and labors up til 2500 RPM at which point the engine accelerates pe...

R1150R QUESTION
Ok guys I am new here and I hope this question hasn't been answered in previous posts but here it goes. I just bought a 2002 R1150R used with 14,000 miles. I love the way the bike rides but have one concern. It has a flat spot between 2000 and 2500 RPM Once past this RPM it is perfect. I am not sure...
