Hey All -
After replacing plugs and resynching throttle bodies, the bike's developed a high RPM cutout (5k+) that is, to say the least, extremely disturbing. Happened under both hard and gradual acceleration, just always above 5k.
It does a quick cut, recover, cut, recover until you let off the gas. Runs great in lower RPMs and seems to be more prominent in the lower gears, but it's done it in all. The cutout feels just like the rev limiter @ the top of the range, but happening much sooner. (also feels like when you are running on a pint of gas and goose it hard).
This a.m. i filled with up, took 2.2 gallons. Rode it like I stole it for about 30 miles. No Problems.
This afternoon, took it out again in the afternoon heat. After I rode it a couple miles, parked it, then rode it again it started doing the cutout again.
Scenario like this: Riding 70 mph down the freeway, bike is completely warmed up, downshift to 3rd, run about 5-6k rpms slowly increasing (not cracking open) as soon as it starts doing so, it starts cutting, hard.
Another - after I get off the freeway, ride it in 1st, again slowly increasing RPMs - once up to about 6.5k or just before 7k, starts cutting out - way b4 the rev limiter.
Definitely it's not more than a gallon or gallon point five down from the top of the tank. Fuel filter was done 4k miles ago (bike has 18k miles), could do it again I suppose. Any other ideas?
Thanks.
