Last weekend, my wife and I were riding my '97 R1100R and stopped at a rest area. The bike was running fine up to this point (1 hour out).
Upon mounting up, the bike started, but idled erratically and then died when I advanced the throttle. I made four more attempts to start. The bike idled erratically as on the first try, and on the third and fourth try, it would not fire at all.
Fortunately, we were not far out and I trailered the bike back home. The bike has 92K miles , and I had just completed service at the 90K mark. Fuel quantity is not an issue (near full). The fuel pump operates normally (new filter screen & filter at service). I pulled the injectors and checked for spray pattern (no fuel spray). Got spark. Manuel suggests either bad pressure regulator, or motronic unit. Any suggestions?
