XB12 Lightning SS “choking”. Bike started choking, losing power and stalling. Progressively got worse to the point it wouldn’t move 5 ft. But then got on the highway and ran it home. Seemed to not have an issue. Intermittent but can’t figure it out. Has anyone encountered this issue? Link to a video of the bike running. Check engine light has always been on since an aftermarket exhaust was installed 10 years ago. Also has fuel when the issue started. https://youtu.be/AeacX7_kDmw (Message edited by ferdinand_the_buell on July 27, 2020) (Message edited by ferdinand_the_buell on July 28, 2020) |

Check your battery posts for tightness. 10mm and snug. |

Watched the video. Check your ETS, rear cylinder "engine temperature sensor" for tightness and no fraying of power wire. Ground provided by tight sensor in rear cylinder head. |

Same deal with my XB12Ss. Check out the 'grounding' posts http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/384 2/834493.html?1534482516. I'm going to try just the single heavy gauge ground to see if that might help. The cable is on order now. |

I installed just the single heavy gauge ground strap from the battery to the anti-vibe ground post, and cleaned up connections at every other ground post I found, and applied a light coating of dielectric grease at all points. Hope I'm not jinxing myself, but so far so good! |

Do you have ECM Droid ? What was the engine code? What is the AFV "Adaptive F uel Value? |
