It's common to Vtwins. Every one I have ever encountered would occasionally
bark like that. My '99 VTR does it. '76 Guzzi does it and I assume my 71
ambo will as well.

The situation that seems the most common to me is when you transit from
engine braking to acceleration. i.e yer following a car. The car slows and
so you roll off the throttle and the engine slows the bike. But then things
clear and so youroll back on the throttle, and occasionally when doin this
it will cough, then catch.

I'll go with the 'sneeze' theory. Mine does it too. Not very often. Every
blue moon or so I'll get a nice sneeze out of it.
Just carry a hanky. :-)

 Pete,

I call these strange misfires "sneezes". Every once in a while both my
Ambos
 will do this. Happens infrequently and at different situations. The bikes
sneezes and then runs fine after that.

Last year on my ride to the National...the bike sneezed once....somewhere
in
 Pa. Go figure

Of course....I am always checking things to make sure everything is ok.
So
 far so good.

Regards....Ian
