I have a 1999 1500 drifter with 45,000 miles.  It was running great, but yesterday started cutting out randomly when I accelerate.  The idle is fine, but ever fourth or fifth acceleration after stopping at a light was really rough. The engine seemed to die (or at least miss) then it would fire back up, then die (or miss) again.  It would do this 4 or 5 times, then run smooth until the next light.  It made the bike buck a bit.

Any ideas on what this could be?

Unrelated: I am a longtime reader of the forum, but this is my first post.  Thanks to the advice of you all, I was able to ride this bike from Ocean City, MD to San Francisco.  Thanks!
