No, he didnt. i saw you on the bridge (i was riding a blavk r1100s, opp direction of you) and then I saw your post in the forum. you are right, i used to have the stalling problem but after changing to knn and iridium plugs it goes away .guess you need to ride it often. i also done my servicing at perfection. i miss the 6667, very comfy bike

Really, small world! How do you know it's me? Contrarian told you?
I took over with stalling and low rpm surges. It would hesitate (broom... Broooom... Brooooooooom), retard response (open throttle, engine respond minisec later). read up F650.com and other webbies, I suspect the injectors are dirty, so I loaded the fuel tank with STP injector cleaner.
Now, the more I ride it, stalling (none, unless stuck in long jam or multiple traffic ligth) and Hesitation (every few days) less frequently. I saw a receipt (somewhere 2008/9) @ 82K service ~$500 at Perfection. I took the bike ~87 or 88K, So the past 2-3yrs, Contrarian had not been riding much, maybe roughness due to this. Did you sell it to him ~3yrs ago?
I am now quite happy with the bike, riding the F650GS and my SV650S alternately. Bikes are meant to be ridden, not parked 1 side for dust collection. hahaha.
Anyway, found a rider who is interested in swapping his RT11... might just do it if the conditions are right.

Can't remember when I post the image... But I bought the attachment at a hardware shop. It can work work with any drill with a 3 jaw self centering chuck...
