I just wanna fuckin' ride!!!

[Stoneman]

Man, when this shit gets sorted out with my bike, I'm gonna ride the shit outta it. I've only put about 500 miles on her this year, which is incredibly low for me. I'm soooo gonna rack up the miles now. Well, as much as can be done by a married man with two daughters, one being a mere 18 months old. Really, I need my fix!!!

I hear ya Jay, although my bike is fine, I feel realy guilty about going out without Ken. I guess I could go but riding solo is kinda lonely for me and if my bike were wrecked, I be soooo pissed if he went out without me. oh well at least we are getting a lot done around the house.

Dude, my bike has been in the shop for over a month due to MY fuck-up! This sucks!!!!!!! Well I guess the good thing comming out of this is that the stock exhaust and comp. is being replaced with the Ducati Performace race Ti exhaust (termi)with the race mapped comp. (Marelli) and new intake (DP filter with open box) for 100 bucks less than 2 stock cans

I dunno, man. The thing ran great when I parked it last year, but when I took it out this year it just ran like poop. I've run a coupla tanks through with injector cleaner and changed the plugs, oil & filter. Now the shop's telling me that the front cams are scored. Quite frankly, I don't buy it. If that were the case, it wouldn'ta waited 'til this year to run like shit. Naturally, when I asked them to check the fuel filter and fuel pressure, they told me that wasn't the problem. Never mind checking it. If the customer thinks that may be the problem, it surely can't be. Kak's!!!

I'm bringin' 'er down to TLRMan's place next Sunday. If anyone can sort this shit out, it should be him. It seems to be just the front cylinder that's running fucked up. Hopefully he'll be able to work his TL-R magic for me...

I read in one of your other posts that you have an injector for each cyl. Did they even think of checking the performace of the injector for that cyl?

He has 2 injectors per cylinder..so if we swap one around, that should eliminate the injectors. I have a couple of hunches of what's going on, but we won't know until we can have a look see! I gotta find a fuel pressure gauge. All my stuff is gone for testing that stuff...I should have hung on to it. Anyway, I have a really big hammer, and that usually will do the trick!

[Stoneman]

I dunno if this is really it, buuuuuut......

Someone suggested that there may be a connector that isn't totally connected. Sure enough, I went and fiddled around with a coupla connector plugs (specifically the fuel relay connection) and it's good as new! I ran it for about 40 miles and was redlining the thing! I was swallowing cars left and right, bringing 'er up to redline everytime! Feels good to have my baby back!

When we did the undertail and wiring, we were taking the tail piece off & on quite a bit. When I was done, I wire-tied the wires to the subframe, admittedly a bit snug. I clipped a few of those off and made sure the plugs were securely connected, and VOILA!

I REALLY hope this is where the problem was. As of now, it surely seems to be...

Jay, Any updates? You must be psyched if that is all that it is.. Although a major headache

[PinHead]

Did ya call the dealer back yet and tell them to

I haven't had a chance to take it out again since yesterday. I will though within the next coupla days...

Not yet. I know someone that works in their parts dep't and I told him what happened. He's actually a cool shit, and was a bit suprised...

[GMAN226]

I'm gonna go ring 'er out again today to make sure that's all it was...

[Stoneman]

Okay. So ROCHESTER MOTORSPORTS can kiss my scrote. We found another plug that wasn't totally connected, and the fuel relay wasn't properly mounted to where it was supposed to be. All my fault admittedly, but to tell me I needed new cams and possibly some head work done? Fuck 'em. Not only is my problem sorted out now, but thanks to Mark (TLRMan), my bike is running better than it's ever been! Look for more in the "Dealer/Vendors Good & Bad" area later...

Before I do that tho, I've gotta write a letter to the BBB, the NH labor dep't, Suzuki corporate and send a CC to Rochester Motorsports. THEN I'm calling my credit card company and disputing the $206 bill they gave me for my blowjob...

Hey Stoneman!
When you get that new airfilter, chances are you may have to do a little fiddling with the Power Commander. The TRE takes care of most of it, but you may notice some glitches here and there. Wait till you replace that airfilter! Your ass ids gonna make a dent on the seat cowl! Yee Ha!

Glad things are to your expectations....

Now thats rippen em up Stonner!
