Cruisin' Guzzisti
I have an A5 engined '09 which has developed a strange intermittent fault recently. The bike starts ok from cold, 1500rpm then 1100 after a few seconds as usual. If left to tick over, after about 60 seconds the revs fall away not quite to stalling - about 7-800 or so, after which it picks up again. So far no real problem.
But if I start again after a brief pause the rh pot cuts out intermittently for a while but then recovers. However, while behaving like a 600 single the dash display splits in half, swaps places and then goes completely blank. There is no dreaded red engine management signal and no error code showing at all. If I turn it off and back on again, the display reappears with no loss of data.
I've changed the plugs (about due anyway) swapped the main fuses around and cleaned the housing, also checked the battery leads, cleaned and re-tightened. This worked for about 300 miles until it reappeared yesterday.
Hope this is easy, guys...
