the off idle stumble on the 08 models has been kicked around for a while now... i havent heard of any cures from American Sport Bike, ecm spy, techlusion, daytona twin tech etc.. any updates?.....the factory re-flash i already had done, isnt worth much.... on one hand, im amazed at the power it puts out above 4k rpm, for a push-rod motor... on the other, around town its a slug and i wonder why it so hard to come up with a cure.. everyone was saying june, which has come and gone..

There is an update re-flash available for the 08s. Call your dealer and see if they are prepared to do it for you. |

I checked with my Harley-Buell dealer about an update for my '08 XB12Ss, and they no nothing about it, could not find any such thing on their computer and asked me for a reference number???? Anyone have a P/N or ???? for this re-flash. Thanks in advance for any info posted. |

I believe they have to hook your bike up to the Digitech(sp?) to find that a new flash is available. |

Thanks guys, I think that I found it. Posting said that: M31US25y is the new ECM # and B31US25o is the old ECM #. It apparently is for all 08 XB series bikes. |

Those ECM numbers don't wring a bell over here. I posted up the pre and post-flash code names in another post. I sucked them out using ECMSpy. |

My latest stumble was due to backlash in the throttle cables. This was allowing the throttle plate to bounce around at low rpm, mostly right off idle. I tightened the front cable first, eliminating all slack at wot. Then tightened the back cable till it was snug. When I started the bike the stumble was gone. Realized on the test ride the cables were too tight when the forks were turned, so I backed of just enough to prevent binding at full lock with the 08 trees. Last 3 days to work and back, no stumble. |

I believe they have to hook your bike up to the Digitech(sp?) to find that a new flash is available. I'll be trying yet again to get them to do this today or tomorrow. It seriously pisses me off that they won't just take 5 minutes and do it without wasting a half hour of everyone's time looking things up and on the phone. |
