Hi everyone!
I rode "Big Momma" today after about 3 weeks of inactivity.  She started right up (usual cold bloodedness).  When I rode her she flew like always, but there was a problem. 

Off idle, there was a tiny bit of hesitation.  DANG IT THAT'S GONNA DRIVE ME NUTS!!! 

The bike seems to idle fine at around 600 rpms.  When I turn the throttle to about 12-1500 rpms, it doesn't seem to be running on all cylinders. 

Once it's in gear and I take off, it flies like normal and everything else seems to be perfect. 

What's the matter with BIG MOMMA?!?!?!?!

Incidentally, I ran all the gas out of her, put fresh Exxon gas in and also gave it a shot of Fuel Preservative.  Rode another 5 miles and put her up. 

The total ride today was about 100 miles.
