The bike died on me twice in about 3 miles. At times it sounded like it was running on 1 or 2 cylinders and then would rev up.....kinda like a loaded up engine clearing out, but with a more "dead" sound before it reved. At this point I think I might have to call another nearby dealer an take the bike to them. I'm afraid I'd be getting in over my head on this "new-fangled" injection stuff.
