If you haven't checked 'em, you didn't happen to idle it too long on the enrichener? That'll foul the plugs big time and it will act as you describe.

As said above: Check for intake leaks.

Ditto on the intake seals. They will cause it to 'cough' (did on my bike before I installed new ones).

I start coughing and pooping when mine starts bouncing off the rev limiter.

I'm so glad I found this thread. I have an '06 883 50K on it. It started doing this coughing/spitting thing in February. I thought maybe too long on the enrichener fouled the plugs. Plugs looked fine, but replaced them anyway since it was a cheap fix. Unfortunately, it's still coughing/spitting. Does anyone know of a good read/video to learn how to check/fix an intake leak? I've learned to do most of my work myself and would appreciate any advice.

It's really pretty easy.
Pull the tank then the carb/EFI then it is only 4 bolts to take the intake off.

Thanks TH. I was just watching a video on it. I like to know a bit before I attempt anything. I'm going to check it this weekend when I switch out the brake fluids.

Try to get the flanges torqued down evenly, and keep the spigot centered while your doing it. I found that I couldn't cleanly get at the left side Allen bolts with a torque wrench so I replaced them with hex heads. Then I could use a crow's foot on that side. The Allan's on the right side are easier to get at.
Hope that's helpful.
