This thing has driven me & the guys at the shop nuts for quite sometime.

While accelerating hard all of a sudden the FI light will come on & the rpms drop for a brief second & then they go back to normal. This generally happens around 10k in any gear.

It's got to be a loose connection somewhere, but don't know where to start without ripping her apart.

this just recently happened to me as well. I stopped at the red light then rev up to move all of the suddent FI light was on and the bike started to choke for about 4 secs and it went back to normal....Pulled over to the parking lot checked the bike but couldnt figure out wat wrong with it....I'll rip her open tomorrow and i'll post wat i find...

 

Let me know what you find, I'll update if I find something.

 

Threadjack alert!

Are you related to Voodoochyl? Lovechild, perhaps??

 

Lovechild - NOOOOOOOO [:@]

We both have a 06 f4i, he's got blue I've got the yellow.

I beleive his identity is from the Jimi Hendrix song & well, mine is from being stoned in college

And hey, we're all just six degrees away from each other

Peace

 

It happens to me again today. The bike was choking for awhile then the FI light keeps flashing on and off.. I pull over and found out that the battery terminal was loosen.. Tight that sucker up and the bike was back to normal... hope yours will be an easy fix as well..

 

I was just getting ready to give you the answer to your problem before I read your last post. I had the same problem and I except i was in a wheelie when the battery terminal came off. Luckily I just came crashing down on the forks and nothing exploded..

 

well u still come out in one piece.. that's a good thing.. but thanks anyway

 

I wish it was that easy for me, tried the battery but thats not it. I just have to open her up, which btw sucks when you live in an apartment.

Thanks for the feedback
