Mine seems to be fixed. Idle needs to be closer to 1100. Hard to believe the injection would be that finicky. Not a real issue as long as you know where it needs to be.
Not to worry, there's a Morgan Carbtune in the mail heading my way. I'll be checking throttle body sync as soon as it drops off the plane. I'll let you know if this was an issue. Seems like a few people are having this issue with the '08s.Something else that might make it more RPM sensitive is if the throttle bodies are out of sync. Might be hard to talk the dealer into checking tho.
Well, went riding again this week and the bike is doing the same thing. I have about 100 miles on the clock so will be bring it back to the Dealer next week.
Has any other 2008 owners experienced this issue?
What guys like you?Don't you just love it that guys with no help alway's have to chime in.

+1Or, you could just stop blipping the flipping scoot....what do you think it is? ; a harley?
The fans will not come on until it reaches 7 bars. Also, when you rev it circulates the coolant and should not get to 7 bars. Let the bike idle for about 3 minutes after it reaches the half way mark and you will hear the fans turn on.I have a brand new 08 with 78 miles on it. not more than a mile from the dealer the engine quit, I thought it ran out of gas and that may be. I coasted into a gas station and filled it up then headed on my 48 mile trip home. 20 miles into my trip while coasting up to a red light the engine died, I restarted it and went on. this has happened at least ten more times. It also seems to run hot as I took my wife for a ride around town. my heat guage got up to 6 bars and the cooling fans did not come on. by the time I made it back home the engine was spiking as I pulled away from stop signs. Today I went out to see if I could get the engine warm enough to kick on the cooling fans but at idle it would only reach 4 bars. I reved the engine to 2500rpm for about a minute the guage went to 5 bars still no fans but the pipe right out of the engine started glowing red hot. I shut it off... any input would be great... I am taking it back to the dealer
