My bike had blocked heater pipe. I cleared it with a bicycle pump and a football adapter. The blockage was a flake of swarf, presumably form engine manufacture. Still get some stuttering on some days. Bike is kept outisde and the misty cold days can cause issues.

I had exactly that (swarf) with my old ZX6R. It was on a cold foggy night and I'd been on a constant throttle on the motorway for hours which does not help. They were known for it though. Never had it on my gen 1 and I've ridden it through a lot of cold winters.
