I went on a road tour with a hog buddy this past weekend. He doesn't ride a real bike but he's a good guy and likes beer. A couple of hours into the ride my R2 started sputtering a bit....a few seconds at a time....then fine. This happened a few times. Once while dragging him at a stoplight (he only has an 883 so it's pretty close). I just install my programmer a couple of weeks ago. I've been on a couple of 100+ km bush rides with no problem at bush speeds but givin' her pretty good. I did, however, have it cut out completely for a second when throttling it on the short stretch of hiway on the way home. Luckily I wasn't trying to pass someone and do a head on (someone posted that somewhere???) I've never had problems before. It is an 08 so I hope it's not the fuel pump.
Ooops. I just checked my fmf settings. 2,1.5,4.5,8,1.5,5 Not really what I remember setting ??? For added fuel I figured I needed a bit for cruise, alot for accel where I want the power (so the 1.5 for the #2 value is probably too low) and not much at WOT since HiveFive's dyno says R2's run rich at WOT even with a performance pipe. For the last three I was only really interested in quicker response under accel.
FMF???fuel pump??? carp in the gas??? etc etc
