Google said "random stalls" were kind of endemic to Ducatis. :P Didn't know it was related to the fuel mapping! I had a 1098 which would occasionally (maybe once per month) randomly stall at 0% throttle when braking to a stop. I had a full Termignoni system + race ECU, though. California doesn't do emissions testing on bikes, surprisingly!
I had to put a Power Commander on my R1 because of the aforementioned lean spot. The engine would "chug" at about 37mph (5.2k rpm in 1st gear), which unfortunately happened to be a very common cruising speed. Google showed lots of complaints for other years as well.
- toomuchtodo 11y agoI can assure you that the engine on the R1 doesn't chug along at sport bike speeds though ;)
- brobinson 11y agoYes, certainly not. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSsP-itS8qI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSsP-itS8qI I commuted to work in San Francisco on literbikes, but on weekends I would head south and open them up.
