So I took a multi-meter and measured the resistance of both ignition coils, primary one looks good and within the specified range but the secondary one showed 35 ohms when the manual says it's suppose to be between 12 and 18. So I'm guessing this is the culprit?
Apologies if this isn't in the right place. I've recently been on a longer trip and I got caught in the rain a few times for long period of time. When this happened I'd have an issue with the acceleration.
From around 4-4.5k rpm the bike would accelerate very slowly, so the revs would slowly go...
I replaced the R/R and the problem seems to be fixed, I rode around town for 20 min with the engine sitting at 100C and the light never came on. Thanks for all the help!
Thanks for all the suggestions but I'm kind of short on time, in two days I'm leaving on a 2000 mile trip so I just ordered a new regulator and battery, hopefully that will fix the problem. I'll update this thread when I get back.
Hm, what your saying actually makes a lot of sense to me right now. This problem always happens when temperature around the bike / under the tank where the regulator is positioned (don't know how else to say it) increases, I never saw the light come on when I'm doing motorway speeds and there's...
I'll check the ECU connectors tomorrow, in the mean time I checked the rectifier/regulator and it seems to be working fine.
You mean the fact that the battery outputs more than 14v can cause problems?
I have a 2007 FZ6 S2, weirdly my bike seems to be running fine, but while riding around town (30mph, around 4k rpm and a lot of stop and go) after about 20-25min my check engine light comes on.
I checked the error codes by going into diagnostics mode and error 46 comes up. The service manual...
