Default Missing spark?

Hello guys,

recently took off my 33bhp limiter and i noticed that at cruising speeds it feels like it is missing a spark... Could that have anything to do with removing the limiter? Or is it just me?

ask me questions.

cheers

sorry, edit:

bike is a k6 pointy and it felt perfectly alright restricted. Once i took the limiter off it started going funny. The previous owner had it unrestricted with a remus can (debaffled)

without the model, how it was restricted/ how you derestricted it or what basis you have come to your "missing spark" conclusion, any answer would be pure guess work.

It was restricted by what method (ECU, throttle stop, washers under the throttle bodies)?
How did you de-restrict it?
Why do you think it's missing a spark?

it was en ECU unit restriction, im not sure if it's the spark becuase they are fine, but at cruising speeds it drops revs for a split second and then regains them back, so it feels like a missing spark... or can it be the mapping wrong?
