I have an 03 and had the ECM change done in October. since then, it idles at 1300 RPM, doesn't have the power it had, and the gas mileage has dropped. Tail pipes are now sooty, whereas before they were clean. It is definitely running richer than before. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what did you do to correct it? I have no confidence in my dealer's service dept and would rather not return there. Any help would be appreciated.

first guess would be it needs a throttle cable adjustment, should take only a few minutes, if your not comfortable doing it yourself take it back to the dealer he should be happy to fix it in very short order. :yw1:

If you didn't already try it, I would disconnect the battery for a few hours and then put the key in and turn it to ignition, and hit the start button. This makes sure all the capacitors are drained. Then connect the battery and without touching the throttle, let the bike warm up until the temp. gauge goes to its normal range, and the radiator fans come on once. Then try the bike out. This lets the ecm re-learn the various settings.

I think Bob has the right idea-re-learn the ECM and it should work fine.

ECM Replacement problems

I already did the relearn thing, but maybe I didn't leave the battery disconnected long enough. I'll try it again.
After a cold start and before riding it, the idle speed comes down to normal, but then after riding it, won't drop below 1300 RPM.
Thanks for the suggestions.
