help please, really strange cut out problem

[martin14]

hi guys, short term lurker, first time poster.

I have a really weird problem. Bike will start ok,
after a few minutes under power, the bike will behave like i
turned it off, just stop.

If i open the throttle all the way, that sometimes helps; of course
i get the pleasure of going from almost zero to full out, nice lurch

sometimes I have to stop the bike, turn it off and on, then
start the bike with the throttle wide open, then she
will fire back up, and off i go...


I will entertain any wild theories as to what it could be,
generally only happens when the bike has been on for 10 mins or less.

have been to the dealer, wont do that again, the mech over there
broke my fuel pump housing while removing it.. nice guy

Independent guy cant seem to find the trouble either.
of course when i bring the bike to someone, it runs fine

01 softie, injection, no codes pop up

Try a new main breaker. There were problems with them back they.

thanks glider, i'll look into that and let you know how it goes.

If Glider's suggestion on the main breaker does not fix it, have you noticed if this problem is related to the amount of fuel in the tank? If it happens when the fuel is around half or less, check in Glider's tip section for info on holes in the fuel lines. Here:

update: got an error code this morning, turns out the engine temp sensor was out..
sending message engine was stone cold, and flooding the engine with gas.

so, diagnose, new sensor, 110 Euros, about 150-160 USD.. but she is running good again

btw thanks for the ideas guys, its nice to at least have someone else thinking
about whats going on, it helps..

Glad you got it sorted out and fixed.:s
