Greetings all, newby here. just picked up 00 X-1 and when out yesterday and I had off for 15 min had tough restart, idle was getting high and by time got home idle was 3k. I just tried to start, backfired and kept stalling. The ecm says race only on it, where do I start?
It has V-H slip on and K/N
Thanks in advance

update, the intake manifold was falling off from hard landing on wheelie - is it a common problem with K-N filter?

Intake manifold should not fall off.. What kind of K&N? Do you still have the support bracket between the manifold and carb?

Sounds like he is missing the hold down bracket--seems as if I recall several others with the same issue after an aftermarket install.Must retain stock hold down bracket as it is the only thing keeping your carb/FI body from exiting the bike.
