Author Message   Xrlmotard Posted on Friday, April 07, 2006 - 05:31 am:        I have a '06 City X and when riding last weekend noticed the motor would hang at about 2-3000 RPM for a few seconds before returning to idle while downshifting coming to a stop. The bike has the Buell Race exhaust and ECM installed by my dealer on it. Any thoughts? Thanks   Indy_bueller Posted on Friday, April 07, 2006 - 06:48 am:        The idle is probably set too high.   Aeholton Posted on Friday, April 07, 2006 - 07:17 am:        How long ago was the Race ECM/exhaust installed? Did they reset the TPS? I would probably do a TPS reset just to make sure.   Davy_boy Posted on Friday, April 07, 2006 - 07:40 am:        I would think that floating is due to the heavy flywheel or crank . When I come off the gas mine does the same thing . Does not bother me just the nature of the beast I suppose .   Black_sunshine Posted on Friday, April 07, 2006 - 08:00 am:        If your idle is set too high then it will hang up like that. Mine did the same thing after a scheduled mat. I just idled it down and all was good.   Firebolteric_ma Posted on Friday, April 07, 2006 - 08:36 am:        I HAD MINE DO THE SAME LAST YEAR. INSTALLED JARDINE AND K&N FILTER, RAN IT FOR LIKE 2 MONTHS THEN IT STARTED HANGING UP. I GOT MY TPS RESET AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE AFTER THAT. I DID TRY TO ADJUST THE IDLE BEFORE BRINGING IT IN FOR THE TPS. I WOULD CHECK IDLE..THEN TPS RESET IF THAT DIDN'T WORK...GOOD LUCK! -ERIC   Xrlmotard Posted on Friday, April 07, 2006 - 08:02 pm:        Thanks, I did set the idle up a tad when I took delivery of the bike in Feb.to make it start easier in cold weather, though it is idling at about 1200 RPM sitting still. I'll knock it back a bit and see what happens.   Old_man Posted on Saturday, April 08, 2006 - 12:39 am:        Dropping the idle speed to a little over 1000rpm on the tach. cured the same problem on my 9
