Bike would miss at certain rpm's(3200) usually on upshift thru the gears..then at interstate speeds (82-84 mph in 5TH gear)it would continually miss. I replaced the crankshaft position sensor(the old sensor has two wires and one wire was broken just short of the solder joint on the sensor)the replacement cured the missing problem. This IS a known problem with xv1700 yamaha warrior owners. *nm
