Full throttle in od in lower rpms, pull the clutch in and the bike will shut off.

There are times when you have to take your bike to the dealer.

This sounds like one of those times. Remove anything that is not stock before you bring it in.

On the other hand it's probably a loose connection.

So I guess I am the only one with this problem?

I was interested in this. I gave it a try twice, 60 to 75 wot then pull in the clutch. While I usually don't lug the motor that way my bike did as yours did. Interesting indeed. My bike runs perfectly save this instance.

Hmm, I'll have to try mine as well but it won't be until tomorrow...strange days indeed.

I went out on my 2009 for a ride and did exactly what you had requested by going from 50-70 in OD and then pulling in the clutch. The bike went to idle when I tried it twice. Hope that helps. Bob

Could this be an electronic rev limiter switch intended to prevent the bike from over reving when you pull on the clutch at high rpms?

Idle adjustment helped but still didnt fix the problem.

Just to keep the confusion down, when I did this I pulled in the clutch and let go of the throttle at the same time. I also didn't try it 4th or 5th just 6th. On my way home, from a stop sign I did it in 2nd. Starting at the same rpm, about 3 grand and did not achieve the same results.

Mine wont do it in the lower gears either, od but runs perfect otherwise.

Maladjusted throttle cables perhaps? This is a puzzler.

Tactical_Mik · « **Reply #11 on:** May 29, 2011, 01:36:22 PM »

I can say my throttle cables are prrrrfect. Barely any wasted space and I can put negative pressure on the grip and no lowering in idle. But that is just mine. I wonder if the ecu has a hard time adjusting the amount of fuel/air that quickly during a shut off. Just thinking out loud.

I would say no, but I've had two martinis and can't think straight at the moment.

Pain killer for that finger?

Yes...I wonder why the bleeding won't stop.

I remember reading about how the Connie ecu treats on throttle to off throttle transitions that it actually shuts fuel off or almost off during off throttle conditions. I would suspect that has something to do with it. What happens when you don't shift like a (edited). My bet would be the bike performs normally under normal conditions.

Maybe you could give us a demonstration so we know what not to do.

Let's refrain from name calling, at least while the mods are watching.
