hi folks been studying this post since page 1 as i too have the same problem wiv a 98 fazer.i bought it last december and its been running the stuttering prob pretty much ever sice :'( the owner before had put a devlvic pipe on it and stainless dwnpipes,standard filter.Never been sure weather it was re jetted he had put irridum plugs new oil filter etc just before i got it.ive followed most of ur checks and everthing seems ok.having left it for a few mnths thought id go throu the checks all again.I found this time no 3 cylinder cold ?checked the plug duff!.changed them today back to ngk and all seemed ok on start up.Grt i thought test ride,stuttering almost instant.I then pulled choke on for ten secs and it pick up again ,i then shut the choke off and it all seemed far much better.Any ideas?wld it be not enough fuel ,and needs re jetting and aftermarket air filter.I was thinking of buying a standard end can and putting that back on?sorry its soooo long chaps....goose
