Have you observed a correlation between raising the gas tank to work on your bike and clogging of your fuel filter? A week ago my ignition switch was changed and immediately a bad miss developed, the cause being so far undetectable. Coil leads checked and re-checked as well as all other connections that could have been disturbed. I wonder if it's the fuel filter becoming clogged from dispersion of sediment in the tank. This miss is a real problem and I'm ready to replace that filter unless you have a more likely cause for it.
