Rode to my ex dealership to inquire if they may have remapped the bike with map 77 again instead of 90 or 91. The bike has similar symptoms. Idling at 2K, surges, same vibe at 3700. They've done that twice before so.....Made an appt. for week after next after vacation. You know, of course they couldn't just give me an answer.
Rode another 40+ miles to the beach, hung out with some biker acquaintances and left. Bike just shut down after about a mile. Luckily, same bikers stopped to help. Called for a tow. 360 bucks. Biker buddy rode home, got his van, saved the day.
So....while stuck, trying to start, the bike cranked fine but sounded like now fuel. Also, I wasn't hearing the fuel pump prime when I turn the key on. About a dozen times. Thinking a fuse or fuel pump. However, get in the garage, now I do hear the pump prime. Cranks, don't start, smell fuel.
Any thoughts? Nothing I can do now, really. Leaving for Fla. tomorrow. Maybe I have an hour or two to devote to investigating. Maybe one of the non Bosch sensors? I do have a set still in the box. I'm betting it may be something simple but my mechanical skills suck, so if one of you could at least point me in the right direction, much appreciated.
Sorry for the long winded frustrated post.
Thanks for letting me share. Oy.
