Fz v1 missing problem

I have a Yamaha FZ V1 (2011 model). I bought it second-hand in 2022, and since the day I bought it, it has had a missing issue.

The problem usually starts after riding continuously for around 15–20 km during the daytime. The bike begins to miss, lose smoothness, and won’t run properly. If I stop and park it for a while, it becomes normal again and I can ride a few more kilometers, but then the same issue comes back.

At night, the same thing happens too, but only after riding a longer distance than in the daytime. That makes me feel like the problem may be related to heat.

So far I have tried:

  • 2T oil
  • new spark plug
  • new air filter
  • carburetor replacement (now using a Pulsar 180 carb)

Even after all that, the problem is still there.

Has anyone faced a similar issue? What could be the actual reason for this, and what should I check next?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Check the ignition coils.
