899 Dropping To 1 Cylinder At Idle And Low Speed

Discussion in 'Panigale' started by DRR117, Oct 12, 2018.

  1. Anyone had any experience of the 899 dropping to 1 cylinder at idle? my bike is a 2014 899 with 4.5k kiles on the clock.

    So she starts normally and allows me to ride away from home. Then when she warms up she really struggles to idle if I stop at a set of traffic lights. Drops to 1 cylinder but doesnt stall, lights green and i set off on 1 cylinder, really bogs down and then at about 3-4krpm the other cylinder kicks back in and runs normally.

    Gonna have a look at her this weekend just wondered if anyone had any similar experience.

    Cheers.

  3. Plug would be my guess/starting point.
    Pani uses separate coils, not sticks...:upyeah:
