Low rpm problems

My 09 FZ6R cuts out at low rpm. It gets worse the harder I ride it. I was trying to do power wheelies in first then 30 secs later I drove slowly through a parking lot and it actually completley cut off then came back on like when first starting the bike . It also smells bad too. I was thinking spark plugs but now maybe coils. Anyone have suggestions? Also I'm new to this bike I was wondering what temp range is normal for it when riding hard.

You may have kicked up some contamination in the bottom of the fuel tank while stunting. I suggest removing the tank and dumping the fuel by holding it upside down. Fill with half a gallon of fresh fuel, slosh it around, then dump it.

I think you are right about the fuel. They said this bike sat for a long time. It's a 2009 and had only 7800 miles on it. I changed the oil,, the coolant, and all the fuses. I upped the idle and it hasn't happened again. I'm going to change the spark plugs so I will dump the tank like you are saying.
