    Any members here work on motorcycles? I have a Suzuki TLR V-Twin that needs a little help. It starts and runs and idles fine but once you start cranking the throttle it sputters. I live in the Thornton area if you have any recommendations?

    TFOG/Jim. Sounds like a carb issue.

    Yeah I was thinking a Throttle Body sync or throttle position sensor?

    I don't think a TLR has a sensor, all the sync issues I've had didn't cause sputtering those more in depth. But I've got the sync tool if you want to borrow it. Or just turn it over to tfog.

    Thanks for the offer but sounds like TFOG is the man for the job. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions.

    Maybe TPS adjustment, more likely the fuel pressure regulator oring has failed(not uncommon). If this happened after it was stored for several months, my money would be on a fuel pump or regulator issue. TLRs also are famous for the plastic bracket that holds the regualtor to the pump assembly getting brittle and breaking, allowing fuel to leak by the regulator and back into the tank.
