Hello,
I have an 07 R1 with 26000 miles on it. Recently have noticed my engine has a weird idle. It has a whole different sound when idling(sounding like a cross plane engine). Once in a while it would idle normal for half a second. This only happens when the RPMs are below 2500. Once I start riding it sounds normal but when I come to a stop the weird idle happens again. My friend tried to rectify the issue by dumping in a little more fuel in 500-1000rpm range but that just masked the issue. I could see feel the engine was still not idling right so i removed the changes that he made.
When I start rolling from 0, clutch completely out at 8 to 9mph, and give it some gas i feel like the bike is bogging down and does not want to move until the RPMs reach 3000 or so.
I had disconnected the power commander completely as well but the issue still remained.
The only thing I have done recently about a month ago was the spark plugs. I removed them again to see if they were burning correctly. They looked fine to me. Any help is appreciated.
I have a link to the video of the issue and pictures of the spark plugs below:
