Possible signs of death for my Rx-1?

When I started my '03 Mountain yesterday to go for a small ride she started, warmed up and worked fine as I drove her to the shed. After putting gas in her I idled down the driveway and when I crossed the road and started giving her throttle she just moaned out and just like gragled or something, it was scary for me because I thought she was dying. I shot her throttle a few times and it kept happening so I stopped and idled for like 10 seconds then everything was perfect again. Any ideas of what happened here?

tors mayby? mine acts like that when it is cold out as well. i let it warm up untill the coolers warm up and then it is fine. only started happening after i put the riser on it too......

Tors or maybe your throttle cable needs adjusting after installing your riser.

It's not the same reaction as when the TORS are malfunctioning at all. That happened to me before when I left her out in the rain and then it got cold, ice built up on the throttle and it couldn't move in to the switch. Took me a while to figure out what that was. The throttle cable should be fine because we adjusted that when it was put on. This only happened Sunday and I've had the risers on since boxing day so I don't think that's the problem.

water in gas, get some gas line antifreeze in it before you do kill it

Will do.

Update. I put antifreeze in the gas, adjusted the transfer rods for max weight transfer, shock is on soft setting, adjusted the idle for 1500 RPM, and I cleaned the coils and sparkplugs. Sled seems to work a lot better now. Just need to get down over Ct Arm road no to try and see if my higher speeds per throttle pressure has changed any with the cleaned coils.
