[QUOTE="HaulinAshe, post: 1391983, member: 1875"] NO If you rode a Gen-II and thought the power curve was smoother than your 2004, you have something very wrong with your 2004. Every year model became progressively worse for jerky throttle all the way to 2007, where it peaked (or sucked the most). Plugs? Carbon buildup in PAIR system? Carbon buildup in Throttle body on butterflies? Timing chain extreme wear and/or CCT gone weak? Crud in the fuel tank? Removed the fuel pump and cleaned the screen in the past couple years? Right handlebar worn/rough? Throttle tube worn/damaged? Throttle cable assembly old, worn, dry? Pour one full 16 oz. can of Seafoam into a full tank and ride that out. Change anything? How about the air filter? Cleaned or changed it lately? Something is wrong. Or most likely a couple somethings are wrong. [/QUOTE]
