Default Begging for Help!!!!!!

Hello everyone,

My name is Brad and I am a Marine. I just recently returned from Iraq and purchased a 2001 GSXR 750...It was working fine for a couple weeks then I started to notice problems with it...The first main problem is...when I am riding about 15 to 20 mph like in a parking lot (between 1500 to 3000 RPMS) it will sputter really bad and like jump..once I put it over 3000 Rpms it smooths out...under 3000 Rpms you can hear a pop coming from the engine...kinda low pop and it drops the idle a little then goes back up...really weird..Im thinking that is might be the plugs and wires..also when I get on it with full throttle/half way through the Rpms it will lose power then pick back up...it gives me a bad power loss momentarly when I give it full throttle.....I try to get mechanic shops to look at it but they are trying to rip me off bad....every once in awile the F1 light comes on...then when I try to pull the code every single time it reads C00 which means no errors...Im just getting so frustrated...The 2nd problem that I have is...when the Temperature on my bike goes 197 and up the bike wont start...but but 196 and down starts up good....seems like the more it heats up the harder time it has starting...its kinda like the battery is really low trying to crank when it is 197 degrees and up....if I wait for it to cool down below that temp it starts right up with no problems...about 180 and below the bike starts up fine with no problem...Everyones time is greatly appreciated...
