I took my bike to the dealership about a month or 2 ago for the 12k mile valve job. I had them throw some new spark plugs in while they were in there. Got the bike back, its been pretty much sitting aside from a couple little putts around the block because its still been a bit cold here. Well we got a nice day the other day so I took it out, and my throttle response is being delayed from closed throttle. When I shift, or anytime I shut the throttle all the way down, when I roll back into it I get nothing for maybe a second or two, then it spools up like it should. So my question is, while they were in there they did all the recalls on it, one of which included 2 or 3 re-flashes that I needed done. Seems to me like this might be a problem with the re-flash? At first I thought maybe it was just the new spark plugs that needed to cycle a couple times, but after about 120 miles of pretty hard riding (stop and go) its still doing it. My dealership is about 40 miles away so id like to have a general idea of what it could be before I take it up there. If its something like a reflash that can be fixed real quick ill just ride it up there, otherwise im gonna throw it in the truck and leave it there for a few days. Thanks for any help. | ||

Is your idle cable too tight and throttle cable too loose? | ||

do a tps resest and a is it de-noided? Jake | ||

I havent checked, but I would assume theyre both good....it just seemed kinda odd that this started right after I got it back from the dealership. | ||
| Mr_incognito |
And also no, its not de-noided. | ||
| Ridenusa4l |
well even if you just get the plug and leave it connected it will do wonders for it...at least it did for me..it 6$ do that and save yourself some trouble and do the TPS reset ASAP Jake | ||

I have heard of an issue where it will lag when you shift into 3rd and hit the throttle. I have had this happen to me once. | ||
| Mr_incognito |
Will do. Thanks for the help, and does anyone happen to remember where the how do denoid thread is? I cant seem to find it. | ||
| Ridenusa4l |
here you go man, there's a folder at the BOTTOM of the thread list. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/290 431/490767.html Jake | ||

Do a TPS reset. I've experienced this before and TPS reset corrected the lag. | ||
| Mr_incognito |
Awesome, thanks a bunch for the info guys. HD shouldnt charge me to do a tps reset should they? Since it was kinda the reflash that was goofy? | ||
| Mr_incognito |
Also, that link you gave is a great write up. Does anyone know exactly what the little Buell resistor peice is? I also ride Kawis so I know about the "jumper mod"....is this kind of like that? Do I need the Buell part of can I just put a little jumper clip in there? | ||

You can do it yourself, takes only a few seconds.
It is just a resister stuffed into the plug. You can make your own if you have the right resister laying around (do a search for right ohms). But for $7 I rather just buy the thing and forget about it. You could also possibly disable it from the ECM, I am working on that  | ||

"I have heard of an issue where it will lag when you shift into 3rd and hit the throttle." I have had this happen 4 or 5 times. Each time I had down shifted into 3rd and my tach was reading 6000ish, and I applied hard throttle out of a corner. I have never seen the RPM reading when the cutout occurred, eyes on the road... I have always assumed I hit some sort of rev limit rev limit, or needed some type of racing fuel pump. | ||

Nope it is the solinoid pulling your throttle back closed for EPA sound emission control | ||

Had a problem with my throttles after the bike had been standing for a while - the cables may just need lubing. But as the dealer had to strip it down there is also a possibility that the throttles are rubbing against the idle air control hose if this hasn't been put back into the airbox correctly - it causes the throttle to "drag" - others have posted about this problem before. | ||

EPA sound emission control, can it be disabled? | ||

Ok last question lol. Couldnt I technically just disconnect the wire from the pulley instead of totally denoiding the bike? If I put the wire in a spot where its not gonna hang up on anything while its moving in and out then shouldnt that technically work? Im just trying to figure out how I can ride it this week without waiting for the part....I tried to order the part from Americansportbike but they have a 20 dollar minimum, and im not tryin to spend 15 bucks on crap I dont need just for a 6 dollar resistor cap. | ||

I just completely removed the noid and am "living with" the CEL until I get the resistor. I do have the ECM cable and a copy of ECMSpy so I'll use that to clear the code once my resistor shows up. Removing my noid improved throttle response across the entire RPM range. Previously, after 15-20 minutes of riding, the throttle would have a very noticeable lag when attempting to accelerate regardless of RPM, gear or throttle position. I think the noid or its cable might have been binding up once it got hot. With it gone, those problems have completely disappeared. | ||

Just remove the cable and tie the front/rear throttle cams together. Leave the noid connected electrically. Your throttle will be lighter and the butterflies won't flutter anymore. Zack | ||

In the FSM it shows how to reset the TPS: Turn Key On. Turn throttle fully open (1 second) Turn throttle fully closed (1 second) Turn Key Off. Repeat 3 times. It doesn't say throttle open, closed three times then key off...It is once, key off, repeat 3 times. Am I reading this wrong or is the 2010 FSM worded incorrectly? | ||

Maybe I need to start a new thread ^^^ bump | ||

Skntpig, you turn the key on, open and close the throttle three times, and then turn the key off. Not turn the key off after each open/close cycle. My noid resistor showed up late last week and I installed it. Before even turning on the bike, I hooked up my cable and fired up ECMSpy. It said there were no codes but I told it to clear codes anyway. I then went out for a 260-mile backroads ride and didn't have the CEL come on at all. | ||

Is the delay in motor response the motor or is it free play in the throttle tube? If its the latter you can adjust that out. |
