    Low idle after hot start.

    I'm copying and pasting the final two posts I made, this is a partial resolution at this point and appears to be working. I won't call it fixed without some more time, but it seems like it is fixed. Bike is back together ready for me to ride today.

    Buell Firebolt Problems

    The noise you're hearing from the fuel pump is the Fuel Pressure Regulator. It's normal and varies day to day. I just put a new one on my bike and the new one is quieter than the old one.

    Stator question

    08's and 09's both have 3 wires from the stator.

    Does your belt squeak?

    Dog, would post some, but there seems to be something going on with my bike right now that I can't quite pin down. Currently it's in pieces.

    Does your belt squeak?

    My XB does that. I have 52,000 miles on the original belt. It's been doing that since probably around 10,000. No issues to date.

    Guys with ECMSpy

    IAT and ETS both show same (or at least within 1C or each other) temp readings. As I stated I did check it against a known good one. This really is driving me nuts.

    Guys with ECMSpy

    Ok, I'm trying to figure out what's going on with my XB9SX. My EGO correction % is sitting at 130% and will go up to 150% with the IAT temp rising. I've tested my IAT with another known good one and mine checks out. I'm wondering what everyone else is seeing for EGO corrections so I may get a...

    Anyone else running hot on the 1125R?

    You have a 2008 model. Have you had the ECM flashed to the latest rev?

    183 mile ride in cold / rain.

    Rode 160 miles home in the rain many years ago in FL. After your crotch gets wet (forgot my rain gear) I find it really doesn't matter anymore and it's not to bad. This was on my 05 XB9SX. And people wonder why I have saddle bags.

    What i have been up to lately

    Well, looks like my stator is going out. When the fans come on my idle volts at the battery show 11.98 and at 3000 rpm it's only 12.02-12.4. Not good. Called Custom Rewind and got a quote. Going to check everything tomorrow to ensure it's not a connection issue first.

    Low idle after hot start.

    How about, hot engine sitting, heat builds up in the airbox causing IAT to rise. Or we could also go with the fact that when checking for an intake leak I get changes in the engine speed which relate to putting the spray on the seals. Somethings getting sucked in. I appreciate the help, but...

    Low idle after hot start.

    IAT and Head Temp both check out. They increase in 1 degree increments and nothing outside of what they should. IAT on cold start also measures the air temp correct. Just ran a fuel pressure test. Fuel pressure is 50 psi. That checks out with being in spec. I checked for intake leaks...

    RTV1000R (RC51)

    The RC51 was the first V-Twin Sportbike I saw/heard when I started riding. I wanted to get my FZR600 to sound like that bike. I was in love with the V-Twin Sport sound. The RC51 is on my list to own. To bad it's about as comfortable as sitting on a bed of spikes. That's the only reason it's...

    1125r mirrors disassembly

    You gotta get the mirror glass off. Otherwise, no you can't really take them apart.

    What i have been up to lately

    Initial results seem good, though when the fans come on at idle the volts drop a bit on my LED volt meter. Will get a number reading on that one when I get the chance.

    What i have been up to lately

    Well, in my case I have the Mosfet VR installed on my 08 1125R. Going to ride it to work to test it today.

    Battery or Stator or Voltage regulator

    Simple way to test the stator. Open the primary chain inspection cover and take a wiff. If it smells like burnt popcorn, your stator is done.

    Fuel pump whine

    I can certainly try to do that.

    Fuel pump whine

    Pressure Regulator probably. Need to remove the pump to get to it. Also could be clogged fuel filter and/or screen. I've got all three on the way and will be doing mine.

    Cover vibration. Easy fix?

    I just drilled mine out and put in stainless screws to hold it on. Much easier.
