Hi guys.

I have a little problem that is giveing me a headache My Tenere (1vj) has started to miss out, When I keep constant speed (any speed) for a longer time it starts to jump every now and then.
If I give it some trottle it runns perfectly agian for a while. It´s very annoying,specialy in rush hour traffic.
I cleaned the carbs and the tank, didn´t help much. Sorted the carb adjustments, didn´t do any differense. Put a new sparkplug in today, still the same.
I tought that maybe some one here would have an idea to what it might be before I dig deeper in to the carbs or ignition system.

On first sight I would think of:

1 - Dirty air filter - clean and retry or ride a while without to test

2 - Freaky electrical contact somewhere, sometimes disconnects, with vibration of accelaration reconnects etc.

Check these first and let us know.

I just put on a new foam filter from MotoAir, but I tried to swap back to the old one today. And yes it helped a little, seems like the new filter is a bit thicker than the one I had before, so it was running a bit rich.

But the bike died on me today when I was going back to work after lunch,took the sparkplug out this evening when I got home and surprise surprise.... No spark. Put in a new plug, and still no spark.
So I think you are right Auke, it looks like I have a loose conection in there some where.

Too much to do at work at the moment, so I will have to take it apart and measure it up this weekend.
Hopefully it will be something simple.

Thanks for the help Auke
