  1. My pikes peak has just started playing up at low revs as if it cuts out very briefly then kicks back in alright at high revs but low it's like a stutter has anyone any help on this please as love bike

  2. sure it's not something like your sidestand switch playing up.
     
  3. Any fault codes, are the gears showing correctly.
    Has it got very wet lately?
    Side stands can give intermittent faults....but without more information that's just a wild stab in the dark.
     
  4. You read my mind....get out of there.

  5. If you're not able to isolate the sidestand switch then if it's a misfire then it's more likely to be something like a lambda sensor.
     
  6. Hi thanks will check it out
     
  7. Hi there's no fault codes,it did get a good soaking back in April but only just started last week when I was at TT Isle of Man,was giving it some stick over there it did briefly cut out at high speed.the gear sensor has just been changed as was showing incorrect gears.
     
  8. Thanks for info. There's no faults showing.can I link out side stand switch?,it appears to be ok once up and running
     
  9. I had to do my side stand switch very recently. Kept cutting out very violently at speed. I took a paperclip and jammed it in the female plug for the ride home and had no problems. Ended up buying a male connector from eBay and making a cheater. Only a couple of ££
