One last question before I head out to the dealer:

I called my indy and when I described the problem, he immediately thought of the in-tank hose and told me to take it to the dealer who would put it on the analyzer and take care of the problem for around a hundred and a half. He said that he didn't have the analyzer they had and he'd have to try a bunch of things which the dealer could rule out or in in an instant.

Now the question: (I'm really long winded, aren't I?)

I tried the test Glider described, pulling the fuel pump fuse and trying to start the bike, and the bike started fine. I replaced the fuse, started it again to pump up the pressure, and took out the fuse again. This time I let the bike sit for several minutes to give the pressure time to escape from a slow leak, and it still started right up. Does that mean that there is definitely no leak?

Riding the bike yesterday, I found that the problem persisted from startup until around 10 blocks or so, or until it was somewhat warmed up. Then, no further problem, either in town or on the freeway. The bike then sat for a few hours, and I took it out again, this time at night. Same thing. Went about 2 miles with it sputtering in the low rpms, and then fine on the freeway for the rest of my ride home, about 20 miles.

Any new thoughts, or am I doomed to visit the Stealer>

Thanks. I won't bother you guys again (with this problem, anyway).
