• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Any ideas on why it's Stalling?? Comments?

    Just a wee follow-up on things since the new CPS unit and new silicone vacuum hoses. 6 tanks of gas and no issues. Mileage appears to have actually increased by about 1-1/2 to 2 MPG. Thanks again for all that commented or made suggestions.

    Got the new CPS unit installed yesterday along with the new silicone vacuum hoses a few days ago. Had a nice long 250 mile ride and everything went well - except for that dang thunderstorm that came the west and chased my butt back home for 60 miles. I did beat it, however...... Thanks to...

    The hose section arrived today as I was in the middle of doing an oil change, so while the panels were off, I replaced them. Kinda tight in there, but I got it done. Nice color by the way. Thank you again for your generosity. I'll be doing a ride tomorrow feeling a little better.

    Part plus tax and shipping was about $107 from Cheap Cycle Parts. Not sure how common it is - it just showed up as a trouble code on the gauge cluster, so I'm replacing it to be safe, and upon the advice of some helpful members' suggestions.

    Any ideas on why it's Stalling?? Comments?

    I now suspect that dealer applied zip tied vacuum hose is/was a major contributing factor to my initial engine problems. As an experiment, I attached a temporary smaller zip tie to the vacuum hose fitting - one that I was actually able to attach tight enough so that I could no longer pull the...

    Speaking of vacuum hoses - before I went to the dealership today, I noticed that the vacuum hose attached to the rear cylinder had a black zip tie wrapped around it at the MAP fitting. When I asked the service manager if this was a normal factory procedure, he stated that it was something that...

    Wow. Scary reading all that. Just left my dealership after conferring with the service manager. As I already knew what he repeated about the original oil leak repairs not being related to the current codes, I did stress that I was concerned if something may have been damaged, installed...

    Two observations today. In anticipation of installing the new vacuum hoses, I pulled off some body panels in advance. Is it factory custom to use black zip ties around the vacuum hose where it attaches to the MAP sensor. There is one zip tie only on the hose that feeds to the rear cylinder...

    Any ideas on why it's Stalling?? Comments?

    Wouldn’t surprise me if they left something loose or inadvertently “screwed” something up when the bike was in their shop for the valve cover gaskets leaking. Had the bike almost a whole month and obviously had to take things apart here and there. I also recall a comment from the service advisor...

    Ordered a new CPS unit - still about 15 days until its available. Silicone vacuum hoses - are these things as rare as hen's teeth? Called 4 NAPA stores today and no 1/8 inch anywhere. Also called about 5 other auto parts stores without success. One place referred me to a nearby company that...

    Looking at the Green service manual and Cheap Cycle parts website, I am not sure I am seeing the vacuum hose parts or locations. Any clues on what and where I am looking?

    Any ideas on why it's Stalling?? Comments?

    Think I will take that advice. I emailed BRP with the issue and basically got told that they have no control over the dealer's service schedules and call other dealers, which I did. No appointments available anywhere til mid or late August. Haha...... I ended up letting it idle again for...

    Any ideas on why it's Stalling?? Comments?

    OK, I put everything back together and ran the bike for one ten and another 15 minute period without issue. Yesterday, it would only run 5 minutes at max, then stall. I also attempted to pull up any codes on the gauge cluster and found none this time. I am wondering it that little bit of dirty...

    Any ideas on why it's Stalling?? Comments?

    Frustrated. Apparently I am too simple to understand the resistance testing procedure. Pulled the CPS unit and only found some dirty oil on the bottom sensor. Have the Green Service Manual and the testing procedure isn't registering with my mind. Also, called two dealerships and both are busy...
