Just came back from a 80 mile run and checked my voltage at the battery.
At idle 13.2 volts at 4/5 thousand RPM 14.9 is that to high or am I OK
Thanks for the help

You may have fouled out the plugs, pull em and replace.
Look at them closely you can tell a lot from the condition of the plugs!
-
Yes it does have a power commander. and I have ran it un hooked all the same. Will try +10 on the trim.
Its just that to me all else must be correct, if when hot it runs perfectly with the oil temp sensor unhooked.
If its lean then why still the cough with the air bleeder screw fully closed?
Will be back at it on Monday, and thanks for the help I think we are going in the right direction.
Heading out to seneca rock wv for the weekend. No wind on the bay.

OK still at it , Still cough (bad at idle) new cam chain tensioner, new tps, new head temp sensor, did the tune up.
Went all through it again all good till warmed up, unplugged the head temp adjusted the idle runs like a champ,
just as it used to!! So now is this pointing to a ECU problem? From what I understand the ECU switches to a different
map when the temp gauge tells it is good to go. Is there a problem running the bike like this, IT RUNS PERFECT!!
Or is a new ECU in order?
-
OK the new TPS is in and the bike is much better, still cough at idle only when hot. My valves are set at .008 E .006 I.
For those who have cured the cough what are your valves set at?? Or for that matter anyone with a bike with over 50,000 miles what setting are you using on the valves. I am worried that a larger valve setting will cause damage to the cam and the lifters.
Thanks in advance.

Check to see the rear brake is not dragging.

BIG 10 4 on reading ohms, does jump all over not linear. Took reading at hookup to cpu pin1 & 11.
Looks like I will be ordering one. Where are you getting them?
-
Understood, 1200rpm when smooth, power commander reading and verified with guzzidiag.
-
Thanks will check ohms.

3/4 turn out

Question on the TPS. When hooked up to a meter if the reading is moving up as the throttle is opened, liner and not jumping around,
does that mean the TPS is good? Or can it be bad and show no signs. This is about all I have left to change without getting into some serious cash i.e. throttle bodies, cpu, and who knows what else. For those who have solved the cough was it one thing that worked or a mixture of things? Warm compression on the cylinders 150 and 151 psi. Did the tune up, I am at a loss.HELLLLLLLP
-
O.K. so now I have the buzzzzz from the new tensioner, and the idle cough. I have a feeling it is the TPS.
-
Air is in the system somewhere, pull it through with a mighty vac.
-
10-4 I was a bit worried.
-
To all those who have installed a blade cam chain tensioner does the engine sound different?
Mine now has a buzzing sound, kind of loud and increases in pitch as the RPM increase.
Is that normal with this tensioner?
I really don't want to go back in!!

She is all buttoned up, my wife wont let me any where near her cameras with my greasy hands.

Has anyone changed their fork seals, and if so what seals did you use?
