That "clearing of it's throat" brings back memories - when it "clears out" it will come on in a very non-linear way. To the uneducated - it might make the bike feel faster because it kind of "hits" when it clears out. I remember a dealer here calling it "the lurch"....

Hopefully, the dealer can send the magazine a new needle and some jets to install...
