Bandit 65
.020 Over
I considered starting a new thread because I am experiencing stalling, but under FULL throttle as opposed to coming to a stop at idle.
But, I saw that one of the last posts described stalling as someone was pulling away from a stop, so I will post here.
The first couple times this happened, I was in 1st gear and under heavy throttle. Engine just shut off. Then it happened again in 4th gear and in 6th gear, each time at or near full throttle. This put me in a very scary situation a couple times. I could normally restart the bike immediately while coasting, but at least once I had to pull off the road to a stop before the bike would restart. I took it to the shop and they downloaded a new map (I've heard that referenced a time or two in this thread.)
On my second ride after the new map, problem was back. The next morning, the bike was stalling immediately at startup multiple times. I limped the bike to the dealer, pulling over 4 or 5 times to restart. I considered having them come get the bike, it was so bad.
They kept the bike for nearly a week and called me today to say they think they found the problem. They said that any movement of the switch assembly on the right handlebar was causing the fuel pump to shut off. A short, I'm assuming. They have ordered a replacement switch assembly. I'm hoping this takes care of the problem.
I will update once I have the bike back.
Curious to know if anyone else has experienced this?
