I took off today for Indiana. First 350 miles the bike ran fine. Then I started getting a "hiccup" in the bike. At first it seemed to happen mostly around semis so I attributed it to the wind vortex. Later it got worse, more frequent and not around trucks, like a miss, or the bike trying to seize or something. I pulled off the slab in Terre Haute and put fresh fuel in the bike in case I had bought some bad gas. I also dumped in a can of water remover/injector cleaner. Started it up -- Cured! Take off down the road and 40 miles later the same problem is back. I stop, turn off the bike, open the gas cap, put the gas cap back on, turn the bike on -- Cured! Take off, run 25 miles and the problem is back. Turn the bike off and immediately back on -- it doesn't fix it. Turn it off, count to 10, turn it back on -- Cured! So I'm thinking I have crap in the fuel filter. Does anyone agree or does someone have a better diagnosis? Second question, where the heck is the fuel filter and how do I get to it?
