I would appreciate some advice here. I got my 08 a couple of weeks ago. She ran perfect for a couple of week and then the idle started to go low. At a light it would die due to idle go down to 800 or less. At the end it would not even start without throttle and die without it. It has a Bazzaz and I was going go check the mapping yesterday as well as idle set up. I started with the air filter (EMC racing) and this is what I found to
my surprise
Like I say before, the PO did a great job putting her together. I have owned close to 40 bikes and I have never seen such a meticulous work putting together a bike. He was the original owner and put only 9k miles in 15 years. He put the filter at the time and for sure it was sitting there without been service.
My only question would be what to do from here. Change spark plugs and then what?. I am mechanically inclined and I do most of the service in my bikes but I always listen to the more experience people.
Other than that I have to tell you that, after owning 2 gen 1 Vmax and now a Gen 2, this bike is a beast and it is the first time I am afraid I will lose my license....
