  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

A Class
2012 TE511 with FMF pipe and ZipTy flashed map.

Bike has been running pefect, but after 5 days of riding in NV, it started to die if I slowly took it off idle. It does stumble and pop on decel and it runs well under heavy throttle.

Air filter looks good and it runs good at WOT.

Bike just turned 1k miles.

Thoughts on where I should start to look?

Thanks.
 
I don't know what the intake manifold boot looks like on these bikes, but you should sure check it for cracks. I had very similar symptoms to yours with this boot:

I glean from what I've read that disconnecting the battery, waiting 15 mintues, then reconnecting resets the throttle position sensor. If that sensor is out of wack, then the problem spoken of here may be the resutling symptom, or so I gather. Interesting. I hope my bike doesn't have a similar 1000 mile problem. But if it does, I'll know what to try.
 
Many people have issues with the throttle position sensors, often causing a dead throttle condition.

I have had this twice - and maybe a third time. In each case, the TPS reset fixed the issue 100%. I feel like I am rebooting the bike.

Any reason I could not install an adequately rated switch right before the fuse block? There are a few pros that come to mind and no negatives as far as I can see.
 
I wonder if you could put a key switch in and switch it through a relay. That way you would be doing a hard boot every time you went to ride.

You can just pull the main fuse(30A) its the same as disconnecting the battery.
