Cold Start Issues

[premierwheelman]

Bought my Firebolt XB12r three weeks ago and it performed and started up great, now the temp outside has dropped about 10 degrees and my bike is stumbling and dying when im letting it warm up, it has the stage one kit installed in it. Has anyone had a problem like this?

YEs sir.... Buell says that it's normal! They say that if you put a stage one kit on the bike, that it resolves the issue... I see that it doesnt.

You bought it 3 weeks ago but is it new or does it have some miles on it. I have 1000 miles on mine and it has never stumbled or died once. That shouldn't be considered normal. Mace, maybe you could find another dealer for a second opinion.

I bought it used with 2000 miles on it but now it has warmed up a bit and its not dying anymore but it still chokes a little. I ordered the race plugs to see if they will help because thats what the dealer recomends if you have the race kit. I guess i will see if those work when they arrive.
