Engine missing at start up and sometimes on the road

Thanks to all for the impute I received for the problem I was having.

I cleaned the two rear coils hoping that was the problem, once I got them reconnected I turned on the ignition and the lights didn't come on and the starter would barely click, I thought I had messed up the coils since it had started fine the previous day. I gave up and pushed the bike back into garage. Two days later I looked all over the bike to see if I could find the problem. Finally I decided to look at the fuses since the head lights weren't coming on and found a 5amp fuse blown. After I checked all fuses I found that the 5amp fuse was suppose to be for tail lights and that it was in the head light position and the 15 amp fuse for the headlight was in the tail light position. I put the 15 amp fuse in the correct position, turned on the ignition, the lights came on, then hit starter button and it started right up. Now the bike runs great. I don't think I moved the fuses but maybe I did when I was having problems with starting last winter. It seems like the bike is starting much easier than it ever has now and that it runs better than ever. I guess the stalling was caused by fuse partially blowing and that it finally completely blew. I think that this also has solved my cold weather starting problem, I have started the the bike up several times now with temperture in low 30's and it has started without any strain.
 
congrads on fixing your rocket.

i just can't wait to have problems so i can post:roll::roll::roll::roll:
 
Thanks for the suggestions. I know it is not the gas for I have been through probably 10 tanks from different stations since problem started. I put new NGK iridium plugs on about 3,000 miles ago. Warp I think I will start with your suggestion of checking coil wires. If I find the problem I will post solution.
that happened to my o5 a few weeks ago..running rough when I accelerate hard I took the connectors off the 2 coils I could get 2 crimped them down and reinstalled them and the bike dosent miss a beat...good luck
