96 Shadow 600 popping/cutting out - Honda Shadow Forums : Shadow Motorcycle Forum

I have a 96 600 that is popping and cutting out under acceleration. I can try to rev it and at low rpm it misses or stutters at one point. Does anyone know what could be causing this. I think it is an electrical issue because the carbs are perfectly clean. Any help will be appreciated. it runs perfect up to about 3000rpm

When's the last time you changed the spark plugs? If its been a while, it will make a huge difference. Also, raising your idle speed a little might help. Mine does this every now and then when the temps swing.

How old is the battery? How do you KNOW the carbs are perfectly clean? If you just had them out for cleaning are you SURE, everything went back together correctly??
