gsx550ef missing low revs
hi all, my new gsx550 misses and appears to be firing on three when on idle to fast idle , but once warm, if you crack the throttle open it revs cleanly without missing , and the missing disappears above fast idle altogether, the engine is very sweet and runs cleanly and without any noises, my question is where should i lok for the obvious before tearing things apart ? thanks jon

Another very distinct possibility is the pilot circuit is clogged in one carb.
Might be foreign material in a fuel or air passage, might simply be a mis-adjusted mixture screw.
Yet another distinct possibility is mis-synchronized carbs. One carb might be opening later than the others.
