I have an intermittent miss that is driving me crazy. The symptoms: Driving down the road one day suddenly the speedo needle gos erratic and the bike misses like I hit the rev-limiter and the radio get louder. Speedo quit working runs fine. Speedo get erratic and bike misses for a second then fine. Happens more after it is warmed up than cold. I split the faring and checked all the connections. When I jacked up the back wheel an ran it (it only happens when running in gear) wiggling the wires to the display caused the speedo to go erratic so I unplug and test ride, no change same problem. New display is $800. Is the computer in the display? The computer for the speed sensor is my best guess right now. Any ideas welcome. Rose is pissed, her bike has been down and she is not nice when she does not get her bike rides. Rod

We went on a night ride last night and on the way home I developed a problem. The speedometer went erratic and the engine started missing badly. The speedometer quit working and the bike ran normal. Intermittently the speedometer would come on erratic and the miss would return then go off and run fine. Made it home but don't know where to start. Any one have this problem? I am thinking ignition switch or coil. Thanks Rod

Thanks to Freebird for the 2006 post on soldering the CLASS controller circuit board. It was just what the doctor ordered after spending several hours trying to figure out why I was getting the error and erratic behavior. Ray Vick near San Diego 86 VR w/ 98 K mi
