    Default No RTS SE5 for now

    For the last 150 miles or so I've been experiencing quite a few instances of stalling when coming to a stop. Today I dropped it off at the dealer to have it checked out. Any ideas on what could be causing this ? The machine has 12,250 miles on it and no major problems until now, I love my 2011 I hope that it will be fixed soon so I can continue ryding.

    I stopped by the shop today to say hello to everyone , and I thought that was your spyder I saw.

    Maybe you got some bad gas , do you use wawa gas ? That gas is crap . I swear by Sunoco ultra . (94 octain)

    I am thinking this is a plot to get your wife to let you trade in for a 2013 . LOL

    Please let us know what they find!
    Is it an ESSIE transmission? Sticking clutch plates?

    Mine did that from new and the dealer couldnt figure out why. That was one of the 10 continual issues that caused me to walk away from it. The new GL1800 trike will be ready by sprng.

    Our 2010 RT-S did the same thing. They replaced throttle bodies, PCV valve, everything in the fuel management area and it still did it. Have them check the DESS module for shorts. That was the problem with ours.

    I just talked to Justin the Service Manager at Atlantic City Cycle Center and he indicated that they had found that the stalling was being caused by a defective DESS module, one was ordered and I should have my back by Tuesday or Wednesday.
