    Gen2 Gas Tank Removal

    Awesome, TY Akbash! Pictures are super helpful if you can take them and it isn't too much trouble.

    Issues after flash.

    SOOOooo.... I cheated. I gave up and brought it to a dealer who I know and they fixed it :). I'd like to say I figured it out myself but I didn't, I outsourced :D. ADD IN EDIT: I cheated AFTER I ordered all new exhaust gaskets AND exhaust header bolts, checked the torque etc etc etc.

    Forgot to mention - I also have the "2 holes on top" airbox mod.

    Issues after flash.

    I don't have any backfire - I did when I originally installed the tune because I ALSO installed the Delkavik exhaust at the same time. When installing the Delk, I didn't make a good exhaust gasket seal and had a VERY SLIGHT exhaust leak. Once I fixed the exhaust leak - no more backfiring. I...

    I was typing from my cell phone - not sure how "turn in" got in there but I'll try and delete it so my post makes the most sense. Yes, its like a flat spot or "Stumble" from a stop - kinda like when a carbureted bike needs the carb cleaned or something like that. The bike power dies down for a...

    its generally when starting from a stop or low power/slow cruising. Higher RPMs /more throttle input the issue goes away.

    Sounds like mine is the same as Erics. Its almost like a flat spot or stumble on a carb'd bike.

    OH NO! The reflash totally helped with rev limiter, power etc etc etc. Its just has this nasty flat spot off idle with low throttle input. I've been thinking about (more like dreaming about) taking the bike down to Nash's shop to get it on the dyno and see if it can be tuned out but too much...

    Issues after flash.

    Yeah, it happened after the flash for me as well :(. I am not sure if its related to the fact I'm using a flash that was built for a different exhaust or some similar thing. I got the 4 into 2 UFO with MAB Ver 2 flash and I'm running dual Delkavik cans for instance. Either way, its annoying but...

    I wouldn't describe it as a light throttle response, which is essentially slower but forward moving throttle. This is "a bit of lag and flat feeling in my throttle . This is only under slight throttle opening or if I am just holding it open at a modest level". Its literally a dead spot like a...

    Gen2 Gas Tank Removal

    Right on :). Good call, doing the tank during the summer took a while out of my riding season :D.

    Eric, did you ever solve the hesitation issue? I don't have any backfiring but there is a noticeable hesitation as I go gently from no throttle to a little throttle. Its super annoying.

    Gen2 Gas Tank Removal

    Any updates Akbash?

    Can you guys with the Gen 2's answer my question

    The 1700 is a great bike to ride and as "tame" as almost any other bike is today - just have a nice healthy respect for it and don't grab too much throttle by mistake etc. Having said that, pretty much any modern 600cc or above bike is the same. Get it, be cool and have respect for the power and...

    Airbox question

    Is the Sean Morley bracket mod worth doing? I have a Guru'd ECU, K&N filter and full Delk exhaust.

    Gen2 Gas Tank Removal

    I may wimp out on the weld grinding and try to find a local expert in northern Virginia to help me with it... I don't want to give myself a tank leak in grinding down the tank to get it to fit. I thinking about trying to find someone to grind all of the welds down smooth across the whole tank...

    Gen2 Gas Tank Removal

    Awesome, thanks Akbash. Anyone have any suggestions for good/long lasting/easy to apply paint if I grind the tank down a bit?

    Gen2 Gas Tank Removal

    Akbash did he smooth out the welds of the new 24.5 tank or the welds on the frame? If it's a matter of smoothing welds in the new tank, I just may remove it and grid/paint it
