Interesting. This fix seemed to fix the issue. No more overheating high or low idle or stuck idle and fuel economy is good as well. Very pleased so far. Did the same route up to 6500 feet that caused my first issues and the bike ran beautifully.
Only issue is that about 30 miles after that I...
Ok so I just completed the fix provided here

So far so good. Took about 1.5 hours to do in the parking lot and 25 minutes of that was finding the right tools. I am currently staying at 5000 feet and the road coming into this area...
Think I will try the sensor replacement, if I can source one. Have to wait until Tuesday though dealers closed for the holiday weekend.
Going to try the harness separation thing as well. Have to pull airbag though so hopefully i can do that in the parking lot with minimal tools.
Bring this post back as this issue has happened yet again. I believe it is an altitude issue. Currently in North Carolina mountains and riding up Mt Mitchell, 6500 feet and bike ran like shit. Would not idle, either dies at idle or gets stuck at 4000rpms. Had to turn off bike to get it back...
Continued altitude problem
I had posted a thread about an issue I had last year with my cross country trip through Colorado with my bike 2013 with it performing like crap in the mountains which resolves itself back at sea level. Bike spent 2 weeks at dealer (sea level) with no resolution. Fast...
I was just quoted $199 OTD for the 8k service from my local dealer. Great price, until I start looking at the manual and what it requires and then thinking that they will most likely skip items in the checklist.
For anyone that has had the 8K service done at a dealer, have they done...
Something isn't right. I haven't ridden much lately due to work so I havent experienced anything new. I need to bring it in for its 8K service though. If you find anything that fixes it, please report back.
Mine is set closer to the 60mm mark. I have an aftermarket shock and spring due to weight. I was only getting 73mm with the stock spring.
Some people say 30%, other say 1/3rd of total travel. Set mine to be in the middle of that range.
I have had mine through extensive downpours with no leaks yet. They are riveted though so there is a chance of water getting in. I use the Givi waterproof liner bags as well just in case. I actually love the liners as they are great for just pulling out the bag and bringing into a hotel room or...
If you are rolling on it anywhere under 3500 rpms, mine does the same thing. Others have said it is normal and the big twin doesn't like to be lugged. I bought the 5 year warranty so if it blows up, well new engine time.
Went on a 200 mile ride this weekend, 88 degrees out in the Florida sun. Bike ran perfect. Temps sitting at 178 degrees while highway cruising, vibration that I was experiencing was non existent and overall no issues, except maybe for low idle at stop lights, felt like it was going to stall...
Re: No idle and high idle ??
Mine has done it 3 times. First when riding at 50 or so, pulled in clutch to change gears and idle shot up. Let out clutch and it went away. First I thought it was my go cruise interfering but after checking that it wasnt. Second time was from start up. Started...
