Why did my entire thread on my 1992 R100R's engine stutter issue get deleted because there was bickering going on involving a moderator (not even involving me)?
Not very helpful.
I will add that the issue seems to have been resolved... took it to another airhead mechanic today. He spent 3 hours adjusting the float bowls and syncing the carbs (it took that long for reasons I won't get into, but he only charged me for 45 minutes!).
He also said that while my timing chain does sound a bit sloppy, it doesn't sound too bad. He'll take care of that in a couple months when my bike gets taken apart for a frame powder coating.
He also said my transmission doesn't seem bad either and likely needs some new bearings (or something and something else, don't quote me on that, it was late and I was tired so I wasn't paying as close attention at that point) he doubts it needs to be rebuilt.
All in all, a good day for my R100R.
