Slight 'jerk' (not me) on opening throttle at low speed

I get the odd minor stumble on mine every now and again, but as Boomer says above, it is definately the fuel injection at tiny throttle openings from a closed throttle. No shaft drive play/lash.

Most noticeable when the engine is cold, and coming back on the throttle after cruising on a shut throttle for a bit. Slowing for a right hand turning, then getting back on the throttle to take the turning for example.

Quoteit would be bad for business...
:mfr_lol:

In fact, that is a pretty good description of what mine does but only in eco mode. When you come back on the throttle slowly, it seems to give a small but surprising jerk...

It's not easily repeatable, as it only does it occasionally, so I'm not too concerned about it.

I'll see what happens when I get it unleashed once I have exported it...

ok my baby also had this problem, every morning after warming up she'd have throttle hesitation like opening up the throttle while moving off or slow speed throttling off, this would only happened during like the first 5mins of the initial ride, there after it just goes away smooth throttle response no gremlins lurking around...

so 1 fine day I decided to ride off without turning on ktrc, guess what smooth throttle all the way with no hesitation at all, so I tried riding with and without ktrc and it seems for me it's the ktrc that's causing the hesitations...

I doubt this would help the other riders in the cooler climate as I'm in the tropics region...anyway bike is fully stock no pc, flies still in there

hope it helps
Cheers!

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but had anyone resolved this slight hesitation problem?  I noticed it for a while and I would like to be rid of it.  Mine a 2007, so with the traction gubbins.  Serviced as per schedule etc and about 15K on the clock
