So ALL bikes with DBW do what mine does?

My buddy Derricks 09 SG has never done it and he rides just like I do (he's the other 800 e-tec in the pic...lol). The difference is he has stock cams and a SE tuner.

Maybe I'll switch stuff up so I dont have to rev the motor to 6200 to get all of what its got out of it.

And, its more then "a loss of power", its a "the motor shuts off".......just so we're clear.

I was just talking to the wife over breakfast........you will see my bike sooner then later Jamie.

 

These safeguards are used all 08-up DBW models, as I noted earlier the specific strategies/parameters change based on year, model and calibration level. Some setups and calibrations may be more sensitive to DBW faults when shifting aggressively at the rev limiter, however we have only seen this in extremely rare occasions and as often as not it is a stock bike as opposed to having a PC-V installed. Again, this is an ECM strategy, when the ECM sees an ETC fault it closes the throttle blade just like you are rolling off the throttle until the control system sees is correct and then goes back to normal operation. Get your bike here, we will try to replicate it and we will work on a solution for those speed shifts on the limiter

 

I have to tell you this and the other thread has me questioning what I was going to do with my bike this winter? I come from the days when we always new to keep the bike stock because it always was a problems coming around the corner when you did not! Now I bought this new HD and after reading of all the different things everyone has been doing to their bikes and no mention of any issues and now in 2 days some really bad items coming up I have to tell you I will not be going in a direction I was going to go, and that might be OK .I bought a Tourer and not a SPEED BIKE so if I lose 2 HP and 4 TQ SO WHAT ! The bike will still get me where I have to get when I am cruiseing in the middle of the desert in Nevada at Night !

 

I would not let a few bad experiences hold me back from doing what I wanted to with my bike, weird stuff happens don't matter what brand it is

 

Wish Jamie was closer but then again I'd be broker.

 

I agree. If all I did was "ride" my bike, I would never have this problem. I'm asking alot of this bike, and it delivers. I am beating bikes with WAY more money invested in their motors.......I have a programer, cams and a pipe, and am smoking bikes with BB kits!!

My bike rocks! It just has a little issue that will get taken care of.......I promise!
