Hey guy's

I am planing on sync'in my throttle bodies this week so I started reading thru some old posts...but now I'm wondering if that's all I need to do.

Here's my situation...my bike has started jerking at about 4000 to 4500rpms and the gas mileage has gone from around 38 to 32 on the hiway. Roll on the throttle and she smooths out and eccelerates, but trying to poop along thru the hood when I get close to home and jerk,jerk,jerk.

I am at 13,000k (stock) and plan to do all of my own maintance myself except for the valves (very afraid)...Could I be needing to adjust the tps or maybe I have a map problem as well? or is this just a throttle body sync? or all three? I also notice that my idle speed seemed to move up a little bit the last couple of days to.

What do you guy's think? Please school me

Also check your chain adjustment?, and sync the throttle bodies!!!!

Have you replaced the spark plugs yet? This ignition system is pretty hard on them... as for the valves, it is relatively easy to check to see if they are still in spec, but if you need to swap shims it gets worse.

I hate to admit this but no...hav'ent changed the plugs yet but will be going over everything this weekend...I think it's a combination of things but when I started reading about the tps and map I thought there may be more to my problem.

Thanks you guy's
