is anybody having problems with throttle. one day it was fine and the next, im having to apply more twist to get the bike to respond. usually i pull in clutch to shift and release clutch with a slight roll on throttle, now im having to go almost a 1/4 of a turn to get it to continue going. if i try and do it normally, when i let the clutch, the bike abruptly starts slowing down until i twist more, its cause for a very jerky ride. HELP! im about 2 more mishaps from washing my hands of buell,, and i love this bike, but im paying way too much money in a shi*ty economy to have this many problems. | ||

have u denoided it yet? go into the diagnostic mode and go to tps then turn the throttle to wide open and see if it says 100% | ||

Have you "de-noided" yours? Pull the outer/inner airboxes then the bottom tray. Check your cables are still on the cams, if loose they can fall out of the groove. Give the throttle cable system a full looking over. Z | ||

That's exactly what happened to mine. I disconnected the 'noid when I suspected it was faulty. I didn't know then that de'noiding was a pukka mod  | ||

check your cable adjustment and get the slack out of it. | ||

Lubrication of the cables goes a long way. If you don't have the cables routed well, they can bind. Also if you don't pull the vent tube up into the base of the airbox, it can rub on the cable or cause it to bind. Just a couple of hints, from my experience. Later Neil S. | ||

ever come up with anything on this or find the issue John? | ||

No, haven't had time to bring it in yet, but its still doing it. i'll leave the house and its fine and down the road i'll go to change gears and upon applying twist, nothing. like theres a dead spot that you can actually twist it back and forth a good bit without any reaction from the bike. and the next minute, BAM! instant throttle. it also starting to sputter more like it did before i got the first flash. i dont know anymore. | ||

I have had the same problem twice, the first time was during break in, it happened suddenly during the ride and disappeared as quickly as it came, and did not last long the first time ( it last for about 2 stop lights ). The second time, the problem is as you describe, left the house on my morning commute everything fine for 3-5 miles, then no throttle followed by a bone crushing sudden surge; very scary in bumper to bumper traffic. This time the problem stayed, the way I fixed it was checked all my fluids, reset ECU, rode bike for about 30 min in a parking garage (problem had seemed to go away) and re-calibrated the throttle position sensor, just for safe measure, no more problem. One thing that I noticed both times, the bike would backfire through the throttle bodies when the problem is happening if the clutch is pulled in and the throttle is snapped quickly. Also in both instances the bike had been sitting for 3-4 days due to bad weather with high humidity. | ||

I had this problem. I took it in to my local dealer and told them about it. They told me there was a recall on the injectors. took it in and had the recalls done. came back working great! | ||

My 1125 is about the same vintage as yours and I wasn't aware of a injector recall in the UK? What were the details of it because the dealer I use and BUK are unaware. Was it one of the Strathstone group of dealers you bought it from? | ||

My bike did that when new. The link between the intakes was frozen. Take it all apart and lube (cables, linkages, butterflies). De-noid while you're at it (you'll have that off anyway). | ||

I have not heard of any 1125 injector recalls 08/09 R/CR. There have been several updates to the ECM software that affect the injectors. That's why 08s have a different flash rev than 09s. Same ECM, different injectors -08 to 09. No injector recalls for either year tho AFAIK. Z | ||

John, Our demo 1125R had your issue Saturday. I lubed the cables and all the linkages, no better. I unhooked the cable to the intake sol. and what do you know, fixed! I guess something gets sticky inside the solenoid and it holds the blades closed under normal riding. Its certainly not a fun way to ride a bike. Im sure if you disconnect the cable from the solenoid you will find that the problem disappears. | ||

my bike is doing it in traffic. bout a minute out of traffic, it goes away. its changed now that i got it flashed. the ecm seams to be playing a roll in this little bug issue. | ||
| Jackgraves |
can someone send me pics of the solenoid and what cables to take off thanks. I just bought it brand new hit a terrible dead spot today its like it hit a wall | ||
