The same behaviour occurs on my system too and the problem lies here:

When X is decreased to $7f the branch isn't taken anymore and
therefore you are doing a lot less lines than you wanted to.
Your TV isn't ready to sync again after such a small number
of lines and just goes on displaying. The black stipes in your
display is the VBLANK routine.
BTW your VSYNC routine is of the kind, that doesn't work on my
Supercharger. Please move the TIM64T stuff out of that routine.
And two of the three WSYNCs before the VSYNC are not nessessary.
