Author Message   Pizzaboy Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 05:23 am:        as you let the clutch out, the RPM's automatically go up. i used to be able to hold a (very jerky) 8 MPH slowest speed in first gear idling ... now when i release the clutch in 1st gear, it automatically accelerates to a little over 2000RPM this has only been happening since i got the 3rd ECM reflash last weekend.   Sheridan_bueller Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 05:42 am:        Pizza, my bike is a Nov. 07 build and it has done that very thing since new. I only notice it when I let the clutch out slowly. Seems normal to me. JJ   Edmbueller Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 08:52 am:        Mine has done it since new also. There was a thread about it way back   Ccryder Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 09:35 am:        Mine too from new but, it's more noticeable when it's not surging at low rpms. Later Neil S.   Eagle1 Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 12:56 pm:        Maybe I'm too much of a newb, but I haven't noticed that. Mine's also a Nov '07 build...   Dentguy Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 01:18 pm:        Computer raising idle to keep it from stalling. It's normal.   Pizzaboy Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 07:21 pm:        i have an april 08 build, and this is a completely new behavior to me. every fuel injected vehicle will adjust its idle speed depending on the load on the engine to maintain its set idle rpm. examples are power steering, or A/C compressor loads; you can watch your vehicles idle speed fluctuate and then re-adjust as the different accessories work. its odd for an ECM to over compensate by RAISING the RPM almost 1000 RPM over idle when it recognizes its in gear, not necessarily with a load on the engine that is bringing it below its standard idle speed. how silly!   Dentguy Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 08:37 pm:        I assumed you were talking about under a load when you said "i used to be able to hold a (very jerky) 8 MPH slowest speed in first gear idling... now when i release the clutch in 1st gear, it automatically accelerates to a little over 2000RPM". Were you not? If you are putting it under a load (below normal idle) by letting the clutch out in gear without opening the throttle, the computer will try to raise the idle to compensate. It will also bring it back down if it is too high. If that is not what is happening maybe you should get it looked at.

R   Adoogie3 Posted on Friday, September 26, 2008 - 11:51 pm:        I noticed the same thing about my bike the rpms go up as soon as the clutch lever is let out.I also ordered a remus powerizor for my r this week cant wait to get it and run her at the track!
