I have not had a lot of time to look into this problem but i have searched and couldnt find anything. A few days ago i found out that one of my fuel hoses had developed a small leak so as a temporary fix i cut the end off (where the leak was) and just re-attached it. There was a small cartridge syle in line filter that for some reason had become stuck in the hose and was completely useless so i took it out. The next day i went and got a new hose and the guy at the shop i goto suggested a inline filter also which i bought. On my way to the shop the bikes RPM's had started to drop really low when i came to a stop (800-900 from its usuall 1400 idle). I had been low on gas so i figured that was why and went and put a gallon in and drove home to change the line and filter. I installed the new line and filter (double checked the flow direction for the filter) and then today when i took the bike out it stalled on me at a traffic light. I was on my way to get gas anyway so i pulled into the closest station and filled it up with premium but when i started it up it stalled right away. I have to slightly hold the throttle to keep it from stalling and then when i accelerate it is really rough til about 6000 rpm then it smooths out and runs fine through the rest of the gears. When i stop it idles normally for a little bit then the rpm's drop slowly til it just stalls again. Though the problem is still there, it does seem to have gotten better since i put the new fuel in so im not sure if i just got some bad gas. Any suggestions or ideas on what i should try?
