Hey all, I ride an '07 XB12STT and on my way home from work tonight (in a light rain) on the freeway - doing about 70-75 mph - the power seemed to cut in half. I pulled over, idle was slightly lower than normal and seemed to be running a little rough. Throttle response went down the drain and she backfired at me a couple times after releasing the throttle with a slight rev. Nothing I could do there so I continued on (with a SEVERE lack of power, struggling to do 60) and about 20 miles later the fuel light came on (earlier than it should have, but I don't think it's related other than a symptom because the mileage went to crap) however shortly after power came back to full out of nowhere. Then about ten seconds later bogged out again. This happened a couple more times, I fueled up and made it home. Like I said, starts fine and idles, just NO power, and it is intermittent (more off than on). Any suggestions? Shane  | ||

Check your spark plugs and wires | ||

Front plug lead can rub on frame and wear through the insulation. Could also be water hitting the front lead and causing a short | ||
