 Posted: 10:58 - 02 Aug 2011 Post subject: Power loss and very twitchy throttle |
 |
|
Odd one... rode in to work today with the bike appearing to be having a bad day.
Got about 5 miles in and was cruising at around 65 in 6th, twisted the throttle and absolutely nothing happened Then about 2 seconds later a massive hit of power.
After that its been VERY twitchy, I can open it up with a fistful and it will rev up then stall at a given rpm then rev up another 1k or 2..then stick there for a split second.
Tried downshifting incase it was a gear issue, but same problem. Pulling away is full of the lols I did get an FI error when I rode home from the BCF BBQ, but it went away (I say that, the LED hasn't come back on)
Anything to have a look at? I started up perfect, revved clean until it got warm, I say warm... until about 80 degrees and I had spanked it up to 65/70 in the country lanes.. |

It seems to have sorted itself... Its possibly the loose wire I found near the fuel tank... its like its pinched and ripped. Its right near one of the middle injectors.. just took tank off, soldered more wire to it and wrapped it up with that weird tape that sticks itself to itself  |
