  1. 848 Evo
    Hi folks been getting a flat spot/hesitation today as the revs go through 3-4000 rpm in second gear, fine below 3k and clears above 4k then rides normally. Never had it happen before, any ideas?
    Thanks [​IMG]
     
  2. Are you still running the original exhaust ? Andy
     
  3. Hi, no has a full termi slash cut system and ecu
     
  4. Full system or slip Ons? Do yo still have the EXBV and motor fitted?
     
  5. Full system and the valve/motor has been removed, full system was fitted from new by main dealer and I have the original parts.
     
  6. Slip-ons, valve/motor removed, DP ECU and i always had the flat spot on my SF848....just learned to live with it.
    But it does not answer your query...sorry
    I am ultimately going to have a mapping done to make it spot on.
     
  7. Yeah I never had this issue before yesterday, spoke to my normal mechanic and he suggested getting it on a dyno and see what it shows, he recommended I speak to BSD performance. Gave them a call and a dyno run is £55 + vat and a full dyno and custom map is £350, they said they have seen this issue on other Ducatis and often its a sensor on its way out and they stock several. Probably going to take it there in the next few weeks and have it sorted and a custom map set up on the dyno :)
     
  8. BSD is where i was also planning to go.....had few very good feedback from them

  11. I had similar on my 848. It turned out to be a dodgy sidestand switch. I fitted a switch eliminator and the problem disappeared.
     
  12. Thanks, last few rides its been fine so could well be a loose connection on the switch playing up
