My new bike is a husqvarna Norden. Sooo it does go in the direction of KTM …lol.
Yeah, I let it dry for a day and then fastened the band.
Since the FTR is sold, I don’t really care anymore what happens to it.
Thanks for thinking with me on this one!
That's pretty good from Lloydz.
So I thought I would never type this but I fixed the bloody issue. I checked all the exhaust pipes, tightened all the o2 sensors and clamps. I also reinstalled my S&S exhaust.
I used a new clamp for the exhaust since the other one was beyond the point of usage...
No, it was a small crack in the steering stop. I forgot to mention that, apologies. So it would be next to the forks underneath the headlight. Its a small thing, really not a big deal but it shouldn't have happened.
They did have to remove the front wheel setup completely to get to the front...
True ... but the same problem (stalling) persisted even with another ECU. I can say that the stalling happens with a stock tune, FM tune, some random tune by a tuner and on two different ECU's.
Which leads me to think that there is nothing wrong with the tunes/ECU.
The bike wasn't trashed at...
Hi guys, thanks again for the input! Its been a couple weeks because I have been renovating my new house.
I did think about jumping on the Lloydz train but I gave that up after hearing, from the other garage, that an ECU swap (with a tune) didn’t fix the stalling issues.
You mention a bug in...
I have been running the tune they use to start the 'refining' process, FTR_S1-B.920X_R201002_RC1.
I did not know about letting the bike sit. I might do that and see if it helps.
Edit: The fuse replacement was done. I have those with the red dots on them now.
They haven’t been checked. I’m presumed if those were bad, the rpm should be bad across all ranges (while accelerating/decelerating).
It could still be worth checking out.
Its currently only stalls when idling and pulling the clutch ( coming to a stop). Rpms dip below 1250 and the engine can’t...
Ok. I checked the air filter and it looks like this. It also has a fuel odor.
Time to replace this? I have no previous experience with an air filter and the dirtiness.
The tune runs a little bit better without a filter. This seems quite logical to me. It did pop an cylinder misfire.
I didn’t...
So their ECU is a tuned by a local tuner. They put the bike on a dyno and figured it out. I'm guessing they made a bench tune.
That ECU also showed a rough idle and occasional stalling. After this swap they checked all the vacuum and intake lines. I don't know at which rpm their ECU/tune idles...
I don’t know if the idle was at 1250 on the other ECU. They just told me that the idling was still rough when the engine was hot and it would occasionally stall. These would be the same symptoms I am having with my ECU and the stock/fuelmoto tune.
The fuelmoto tune that is installed right now...
Hmm ok I didn’t know this was a thing. It was properly installed according to the PV3. I might install again and see what happens.
It could be that it didn’t stick.
All the tunes are from Fuelmoto. They worked before the recall situation so I doubt they are being bad.
I might have explained...
Hmm, I’ll send them a log and see if they can do anything about it.
They did not install the tune on the other ECU. It was flashed by a local tuner.
The bouncing was still present with their ECU. Thats when they started checking other parts because it confirmed there was something wrong...
Last update:
FTR has been to another garage. They have checked all vacuum lines, tmap sensor, throttle body, pressure line, fuel tank and ECU. They swapped out ECU and tmap sensor with those from another 2019 model. So we could say that there’s nothing wrong with those electronics.
They also...
I checked the throttle and it's all free and clear. CUrrently driving hassle free for a couple of days. No cylinder misfire or stalling.
My guess is that the TPS calibration eliminated something. Still going to get it checked by another garage.
Ok, thanks for the info. Did not know that.
Then I guess its still the cylinder 1 misfire I need to get checked. I need to figure out if it pops up under certain circumstances.
The TPS recalibration helped. It is no longer stalling at every stop. Just the regular stalling from the tune.
While killing that symptom another one has popped up. The engine has an occasional misfire (pops up while idling and engine hot) and when coming to a stop, the engine somethings keeps...
