    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    I tried to remove it, but stripped the screw head - God knows what supernatural thread locker was used. I used an aerosol sensor cleaner and thoroughly cleaned it before jumpering it. I'll order a spare one in the off season, just to have one. Ultimately, the switch really isn't the issue...

    Progrip/TechSpec airbox protector

    No, there is a precut buckle guard. Give them a call. I think it was approx $20-25.

    Progrip/TechSpec airbox protector

    +1 for the Techspec grips. I have the buckle, airbox and frame grips.

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    Yes, I did with a propane torch and didn't notice any change to the idle. I'm also not sure if the IAC would compensate for it or not. Over the winter, I'm going to rotate the engine to either replace the headers or add O2 bungs, so I will be a good time to go through all of the gaskets and...

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    OK, the ECM doesn't like the switch disabled. I think I would have to turn off those trouble codes within the ECM - kind of like putting electrical tape over a check engine light. I've enabled the switch again. Errors: 34 - IAC position too low 26 - Clutch short to ground/broken wire I...

    Great work, Jesse! Looks fantastic!

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    It is supposed to bump idle up 200rpm or so in gear with the clutch lever pulled on 2008+ XBs. It is by design to keep the bikes from stalling, and to roll away from a stop more easily. Found this info in numerous BadWeb posts, oddly nothing on BuellXB.com. :upset...

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    So after wrestling with it - the timesert fiasco which required additional grinding and swapping the standard ramp for the Muller Power Ramp, the culprit is the clutch switch. I jumped it with a piece of wire and the idle does not climb with the clutch in while in gear. Apparently, this is a...

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    Agreed. I haven't ridden the bike since I noticed the problem and even then no more than 40 miles were in that state. I'll have it sorted out today, hopefully. Timesert for the clutch cover, then properly adjusted ramps and cable. Thanks for the input and insight, guys. :up:

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    Cooter, I've been adjusting it using the process in the manual - loosening the cable, adjusting the primary and setting the cable. Perhaps you can clarify the following: Using a flat tip screwdriver, turn adjusting screw (3) counterclockwise until it lightly bottoms. So I have not been...

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    I think I have it figured out. It's a combination of the Muller Power Clutch, factory clutch lever and my fat gloved fingers. I did not have this issue with the Chinese levers and the Muller Power Clutch. I was able to 2-finger pull without issue. Having switched back to the stock lever, it...

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    Neutral light is solid nothing interesting happening. IAC was super tight but I removed it and cleaned both it and the housing. It took a few Q-tips soaked in cleaner to clean it up thoroughly. I pulled the fuel pump fuse and listened for the IAC motor and it was stepping as expected (I...

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    Thanks for direction, I will definitely check those 2 points out. What I find odd is that it idles fine in neutral and only when it's put in gear, with the clutch pulled, do the revs climb up.

    Idle climbs in gear with clutch pulled?! Idle stable in neutral, however.

    So this one has me completely baffled. When in neutral the bike idles perfectly; however, in gear with the clutch pulled, the idle climbs to 1400-1800 rpm. The bike is a 2009 XB9SX. Has a muller power clutch, exhaust and some light tuning recently (last couple of weeks). This issue hasn't...

    I have the same issue up here. Still on BUEZD wanting to move to BUE2D.

    New XB9SX owner in Toronto area

    Update: It appears the custom lever I purchased for the ZTL2 was preloading the master and as a result the feel was diminished from the ZTL experience. I've swapped back to the factory levers and the feel is much improved. Notwithstanding, I will be looking into a radial MC in the off-season...

    New XB9SX owner in Toronto area

    Thanks, Jesse! :up: To be honest, I don't know if that's much of an improvement with the standard style master cylinder. I think I'm going to try a radial master cylinder next season and add the EBR rotor and mounting. But you're right, it's on the expensive side. It wasn't a rational...
