According to my owners manual, the overall length is95.9 inches.

I would like to know the probable cause and the fix for my VT100c2
(1997) On hard accelleration, about 35mph in low gear the engine
starts sputtering an mis firing. It does the same at highway speeds
if you open the throttle. This bike has less than 9000 miles, but it
sat for about 3 years. I have changed the plugs, re-adjusted the
idle mixture, drained the carbs, added fuel system cleaner etc.
It looks like the carbs open at the same rate. Seems like it runs a little better each time I tinker with it, but its still not right.
Any Ideas??
Thhanks,
Rod
