    Bad Battery?

    I should explain about my original "load test". I live in Italy, and i took the battery to an Autoricambri (autoparts store) who told me the battery was good. I generaly dont trust these lasy neopolitains, so they probably told me it was good just to get me to leave thier shop...

    Bad Battery?

    I have replaced the Ignition Coil, plugs and wires, as well as the IAT and Engine Temp Sensors. The bike it still not right. Still back firing, and dying, not starting, and when it does it runs fine until I twist the throttle. Could this just be a weak battery that isnt putting out under loads...

    Ducati just out did the 1190rs :(

    well, its still got the desmodromic valves... I was reading this article http://www.eurotuner.com/news/eurp_1111_ducati_1199_panigale_engine/viewall.html It seems like they made some real 'forward thinking' moves,,,, like switching from ROLLER BEARINGS to shell bearings, alowing a bigger...

    Ducati just out did the 1190rs :(

    I've got to think that those stats are wrong. I live in Itlay. Italians are super shady, and they never tell the truth. (might be wishful thinking...) anyway, its probably got those stupid desmodromic valves. Or maybe they got rid of it to save wieght :p I'll have to google it.

    Ignition Coil failure intermittent?

    UPDATE I replaced the Engine Temp. Sensor and Intake Air Temp. Sensor. NO luck. No spark, it fired a couple times then quit. Moving on to my original thought of replacing the ignition coil.

    Who has a corbin seat?

    Forget about the latch, i saw it later... I have never done a tail lift, but i've got to imagine it puts alot of pressure on the front of the seat. I wouldnt do any extensive cutting of the seat pan, you might as well leave a stock seat on. The corbin is 10x's more comfortable, but if you...

    Who has a corbin seat?

    lets get this straight... You have a tail lift? and where is the hook that clips into the seat? I have a corbin on my SS, and it fits great! And i sent them a few emails, they responded promptly. Maybe ask the original owner to email them? Try taking out the spacers, see if it fits then...

    intermittent engine failure while riding

    Steven, I checked the connections but the bike still wont start at all, it just cranks away... I'll get a hold of a volt meter and check the coil tonight, i'm not sure what else it would be. I've got gas and air, but no spark... i might have to do the old fashioned test of disconnecting the...

    intermittent engine failure while riding

    I have the same issue... The bike started backfiring and stalling out, seemingly randomly. Now the bike wont start at all, it just cranks away but doesnt fire. arkizm- Can the kill switch wiring be a problem if the fuel pump still runs when you flip it? Does anyone have a picture of running...
