My bike was bucking badly at 3500-5000 rpm. Remapping didn't help, new ecu, tps, plugs, etc had no effect. 2 mechanics spending a total of 11 hours couldn't solve it either.
Sunday I took it to a bike show and was emabarrassed when it stopped running altogether as I was taking it back to my trailer. It has all this turbo stuff wedged inside the inner tank area and earlier that day it had stopped running due to a pinched fuel line. Thinking it was the same problem again I popped up the tank to check it out. A little crowd gathered around to check out the bike. I didn't really want to tell them "uhh, I'd start it but...". I turned on the ignition and eventually worked my way to the fuel pump wiring harness. I shook it. What do ya' know, a short. It seems that with all of that stuff under the tank two of the wires had come partially unplugged. Needless to say it runs alot better with a constant fuel supply. Too bad it tool 2 mechanics and 11 hours to find this. I also had it remapped to try to fix the problem so now I'll have to put it back the way it was. Even so, I was the happiest guy at the show. JT
