If its got good compression on all cylinders I would very much doubt it to be a burnt valve, sounds more like blocked jets or something.
If you worried about falling off your bike, you'd never get on.

yes ....like it mucho....but......previous owner liked to use some sort of silocone spray cleaner on everything....including the grips :eek :eek :eek ......also the crash bars rest against my shin and everytime i went over a bump would give me a knock...first thing when i got back the bars came off...also one of the pads on the front inside is a bit low so will fit new pads and give the pistons a clean/inspect....handle bars defo too wide so will see if i can get some origanal ones......loads of power and very smooth slightly higher seat height compared to the 600 but that suits me...great on the twisty bits with pilots  .....bought some de-greasing wipes on way back to get rid of the silocone ......otherwise happy with my purchase......oh .gear lever slightly too low.
as regards the 600...will make a start one evening this week , tyres should be here wed/thurs so will remove the wheels in readyness 
One, is never going to be enough.....

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
hi,goose, reds got a std can on his and its still doing same?....so mabe at this point?..save your dosh!!...keep looking on here because reds going to do some more testing?...some tips given to him off a road racing mechanic!.....ade the blade cured his with a re,jet and his was wearing a aftermarket can?....but he had slightly diffrnt symptoms?.....any way?....ime sure red and ade will be along shortly?.......
hi goose......... welcome to the club........yes standard can on mine,carbs std as well.ie main jets,pilot jets and needle on factory height settings....crh has helped me out with lots of checks/inspections/changes and probable causes for the stutter,main one being mixture screws,i have a pattern air filter which i fitted just before i noticed the stutted so will check mixture and richen by half a turn....waiting for tyres at moment so wont be able to test ride untill i have them fitted (puncture :\ )ill do both jobs together and let you know the outcome .....
One, is never going to be enough.....
hi folks bit of an up date.,back in march i was 1st thinking my problem cld be either coils or fuel pump so i had bought a set of coils and fuel pump frm flea bay.yesterday i decided to fit them just to elimate them ,so braved the high winds and did the change on me door step,on start up seemed good then stutter and cut out,scratch me head ,oh id forgot to turn the petrol tap under the tank back on :\ took it for a test ride and its fine .Just hope that maybe the old fuel pump had a problem.I still might junk the patterned standard air filter and go KnN and stage 1 dyno jet ,gona take the bike for a good ride out today and see after a few hrs riding will let you all know ,fngrs x its solved.goose
not realy looked at the fuel pump...apart from a flush through...lets us know the outcome of the test ride
One, is never going to be enough.....
red!! remember the fuel pump tests we did with ade??.......chk bk to the pulse results?? ...wasnt mine reading alot higher than yours?...at tickover and 5000rpm?????? :rolleyes
