What's wrong with the new one you've bought? Or is it simply a matter of you refuse to let the universe win and you are determined to get your '98 back on the road without its stutter :P

not going to be beaten by "the stutter"....when its all sorted i`ll bring it along to one of the lofo`s ride outs and you`ll see why....its a cracking looking bike  :D  in the best colour  ;)
  not had much of a chance to look at the new one yet but a quick check over last night found.......missing centre stand,bent clutch lever,broken exhaust stud,damaged thread on front sprocket shaft, no nut !!,carbs held on with cable ties  :eek ....saying that it does start and runs well with a high tick over possibly caused by the blowing exhaust and cable ties letting in a bit of air,air box side of the carbs,a weekends fettling should sort these out  ;)

Not sure if you have changed the air filter or not, but mine used to do the same thing, replaced with a k&n and no more stutter...

I think by now he's replaced everything but the tyre valve caps, but he can't remember what's been done - you'll have to start over again Paul!

                                                    pick up coil
                                                    clocks,as i think they work with the ecu


new parts ive fitted include.........plugs
                                                    plug caps
                                                    k + n air filter

morning stuttering fans......if theres any of you left  :o .....i think i may have fixed it  :rolleyes ........been swapping a few things from my spares bike,a lot of items which i have already checked/changed but also one new item which i have not touched yet,i have mentioned it in one of my more recent posts,with no replys from more knowledgeable foccers.....so thought we would have a little guessing game.............happy to supply beer tokens to the correct guess and more importantly an explaination in how this item works.......my monies on FAZERIDER being the winner...................oh..buy the way FAZERIDER....the generator and cover you kindly donated to the "stuttering one",ive used the internals on my bike and passed the cover onto DEADEYE,so a big thanks from both of us  :D

Just a general observation for anybody chasing a misfire or stutter. During my investigation I cleaned my carbs, replaced my plugs, replaced fuel filter, cut back my ignition leads did a carb balance none of which did anything. My symptoms only came to light after riding the bike hard for a few miles and then she would misfire on hard throttle at low revs. I would recommend anybody who has a misfire symptom to replace the plug caps. You can get 4 NGK replacements for less than a tenner.
Another possible red herring symptom is a rough idle. I have a K+N filter and a Beowolf end can with baffle in. Even after doing all of the above my bike still doesn't idle smoothly but rides great so I'm not worrying about it.


How can you have "hard throttle at low revs"  :look

Maybe I didn't explain it right. After riding hard for a few miles, if I had to slow down then open up the throttle (low revs, high gear) at anything more than about 1/2 an inch then the bike would stutter/misfire. If I eased the throttle extremely gently then I could get the engine to pick normally. You can pull the throttle around hard at any revs. The gear your in will decide how fast the engine picks up.

mmmmmmmmm...good guess JOHNBOY....you are thinking the same way as i WAS  ;) [size=78%]...........iam not 100% sure ive fixed the problem as iam limited on test ride length due to lack of tax,but on the short test ride i had after swapping parts there was a massive improvement....going to tax it at the end of the month and see for sure......will sneak out later when my private test track is quiet ......any more gusses ?[/size]

i think that was part to blame and did replace it with one kindly donated by FAZERIDER,the wiring where it passes through the cover was very worn....the new one did improve things......and thats a MASSIVE clue..... ;)

Sounding very electrical to me... unfortunately I know next to nothing about the electronics so can't really make any well thought out guesses...

Red98, please put us out of our misery, I too got a stuttering Fazer, with the same symptoms as yours, and done more or less everything you have done and still she stutters! I am desperate now to have my bike back! :o
