Afternoon all,
Unfortunately I am writing again asking for help with my F3 800. I was on a decent ride today through the snowies and came across a new issue I have never seen before.
I had WOT in 3rd gear going up a hill and the bike surged just like it does when the TC kicks in, it regained power briefly and then all power was lost, as if I was coasting in neutral. I still had WOT at this point, changed down a gear and let the clutch out with no change. I pulled over to the side of the road and hit neutral, the engine hummed bouncing from about 2.5k to 4k rpm continuously while the dash displayed 'Stop Engine', 'Engine malfunction'. I turned the ignition off, had a good visual check of the bike but everything seemed in order. After a couple of minutes, I switched it back on and started it up. No problem. After about another 1.5hrs riding, I made an overtake on another bike up a hill, 3rd gear, relatively pinned and then the exact same events occured. Surge in power, no engine control and rolled to a stop with the engine wurring. Let it sit for a bit, turned it on again and the error had cleared.
Incredibly odd and I have no idea what could cause this to happen. Any ideas from the floor?
Cheers for all your help in advice.
