I have a 2012 R1200Rt with 48000 miles. A few times over the summer I notice the bike stumble or surge. After this happened, everything ran fine. Maybe about two months later it happened again. Then everything was running ok.
I has new tires installed at the dealer about 4 weeks ago. The dealer is 45 miles away by interstate. On the morning I went to the dealer, I was about 1/4 mile from my house and after stopping at the stop sign, I went to take off the the bike stuttered when I started accelerating. It cleared out almost immediately, and then ran fine. got on the interstate and was moving with traffic 80-85 mph, everything was good. Got my tires installed, came home. Right before I got off the interstate, I had to get on the throttle to get around some cars, and the bike stuttered at high RPM's. and cleared almost immediately.
I thought the plus or throttle sync might be off since it was time for the 48K service. Did the service, new plugs (old plugs looked normal) new air filter, did the throttle sync, it was out, valves check out in specification.
The following morning, I left to go get some 93 ethanol free gas. At the leaving the stop sign, the bike stuttered, then surged,stuttered and surged. It was bucking like a horse. Then it cleared and ran fine for a nice 200 mile ride.
Now it seams like the first ride of the day, it will stutter within the first 1/4 mile and then be fine the rest of the day, no matter how many times is cut off and restarted. The bike is kept in a garage. Temp in the garage this morning was 55 degrees, it was 28 outside. This has me a little worried since this is happening almost every ride. Any suggestions?
Thanks
