high rpm miss?

[mark ward]

Basics, Correct me if I'm wrong.

Electrical, should happen at any RPM, OR BE INCONSISTENT. 

Air, too little (dirty filter) would would be a constant suffocation, the engine, BOGGING it down at higher RPM's.

GAS, The diaphragm or STICKY float could cause hesitations at high RPM, when MORE STEADY GAS NEEDED. (MISSES)

1st thing I would want to know is how CONSISTENT, IS THE MISS.

Is it like clock work, At same rpm, is it like the second hand, CLICK CLICK CLICK as you are riding along.

OR here and there, how often (AT THE SAME SPEED & RPM) is it steady? or varies?   

Air box? I tryed the drilling more holes in the top of the box, tested it a few days and then Plugged them with, fuse box hole plugs.

I did not see any missing, etc.

WAS THE PROBLEM SOLVED?

I had a Uni in my 09' and had no issues at all in nearly 18k miles. I'd bought some PJ1 foam filter oil and cleaner and after selling the KLR to get the Super Tenere, continue to use the claener & oil on my Briggs and Stratton lawnmower engine. If anything will stress test a foam filter, it's a lawn mower! LOL +1 on avoiding a K&N filter in a bike used anywhere near off highway (or on highway, for that matter.) They make power by flowing air, not stopping dirt. http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/airfilter/airtest3.htm -eddie in Ga.

I can wash the filter with ordinary detergent in a motel sink and reoil it on the road. Takes  only about 10 mins to do so you can service it when you should, even if traveling. NoToil claims that their oil can dissolve the glue on other brands of  filters so only their filters should be used with their oil.  I'm skeptical about the glue dissolving but use their filters anyway since I was  never able to get other filters free of all of the old oil. I've also used TwinAir filters with no issues. I'd avoid K&N on the KLR, based on others experiences with them passing dirt under certain conditions. From: gerryponline@...

I want to get a foam air filter (Unifilter, Twinair, etc.). Do any of you favor one brand over the others, or are they all about the same? Thanks in advance, Gerry
