• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    2016 RS sounds like it is running on one cylinder

    Plug wires do have problems with them, so definitely check that firdt . I have now ran into a failed injector on these engines on three different bikes, so check that next... Good luck

    Since I am that guy who likes to research forums to find out if anyone has had the same problems as me, and usually the forum ends inconclusively, I want to make sure this one is concluded!! Seriously if you can spend time asking for help from others, the least you can do is let everyone know...

    I contacted the dealer that I purchased the bike from, Reno's Powersports in Kansas City (I will name their name now as they stand behind their products and I didn't want to give them a bad name by putting them in the post earlier.) and told them the results of all of my tests. And they are...

    It failed on me again this morning, so I hooked in the noid light (BTW the noid light required for this application is the Bosch 2) to the rear cyl. injector and the ECM was pulsing just fine. Alright... we have narrowed it down to the injector!! Then I plugged the injector back in and it...

    Recurring dead battery

    Looks like its time to pull off the negative cable, put a test light between the cable and the post and start pulling fuses till the light goes out! From there you can at least narrow it down a bit! Hope it gets resolved fast.

    Running rough at low speeds?

    Could be several things, the map sensor hoses as stated above is a great place to start. The camshaft position sensor is what times the fuel to each cyl. you may wanna do that test. Look it over real good for vacuum leaks. (maybe give it the old carb cleaner test). Im pretty new to ownership...

    Well, I havent ordered the injectors yet, seems like throwing parts at it is admitting defeat, and I'm stubborn! So... This morning I crank over the bike and it cranks 15 or so times, and fires on the front cyl. for about three seconds then the other cyl kicks in and all is good. WHY??? Any...

    Tonight I performed a fuel pressure test and the results were 48psi exactly, which is what the manual calls for. I also performed the tests for the cam sensor, crank sensor, and fuel injectors as stated in the manual. All of them came out as they should. I spoke with the dealer I purchased...

    No, I am not giving it any throttle (but I have tried it with no results), It has been verified that there is not a problem with Spark, or Flooding. The Fuel injectors are simply not putting fuel into the venturis unless it is primed with fuel first.

    I am new here so thanks for the help in advance! I just bought my wife a 2009 GS a few of days ago. The first couple of days she put over 200 miles on it, but went to start it this morn and it took a lot of cranking to finally get it started. We went to eat at a Sonic about thirty miles away...
