I have an efi bike and I have noticed the same thing when I am going slow. All that I have to do is give it a little more gas and it will go away. Works for me
Your talking pretty slow here, first gear, no throttle, so my guess is that it is 1 cylinder firing, then the other 45 degrees later; then it needs to crank over 315 degrees before it fires again, purely the physics of the design.
You want smooth, get a BMW with 180 degree opposing cylinders to cancel each other out.
Could be wrong, been wrong before, ask my wife...............
I was a bit worried about the slow jerking myself - thought you guys would have more fun with that! Another thread heading makes me laugh is "Tranny Question" what's up with that?
