H..E..L..P…. MY STOCK 2008 R3T, 17000 miles. 4000 miles ago while hot, I've had a miss only at steady cruising speeds, causing a stall twice, (started back up after 5 minutes). Seems almost like 1 cylinder is missing when hot while maintaining a steady cruising speed, or when backing off the throttle while cruising she will seem to miss and start bucking and jerking. Over 65-70mph is fine.Upon accelerating there are no issues, she goes…. Does not happen every ride. My mechanic is not Triumph guy but did the following;
Replaced the fuel filter and clamps, checked the fuel pump pressure at 42lbs, checked plugs/wires, and did a cleaning on the injectors and road tested it 40 miles. The problem was occurring when I brought it in to him, but was running fine for me for about 2 tanks of fuel. In neutral, if I throttle it up a bit and hold it, she will NOT hold constant steady RPMs, but go up and down as if there was a bad wire or plug. Acceleration is fine. Any help would be appreciated. PS I went looking to trade it in for another bike, but there is nothing out there like this! I can’t see myself riding anything but my R3T!
