Low RPM acceleration in traffic - jumpy/slipping/whats going on
#10

When you add up primary, transmission, chain, cush drive, there is actually quite a bit of slack there...

I think a lot of the other fuelling issues are from the relatively poor stock fueling on these bikes (and most other new bikes). I found a Power Commander cured this, but I'm sure you would just get used to it as well.

FTFY.

My shaft drive bike doesn't do any of this, which is my favorite part of having a shaft drive (not to mention the lack of having to maintain a chain).
