I know this is utter crap but my 996S with chip and 54mm pipes splutters when you give it loads and you kind of have to roll the throttle on not pin it. Hacketts say all the "S" models do that. Cannot see it my self anyone....anyone?

My 996 bip did it until I fitted an ultimap chip.

....its gotta be poor fueling;

If its always done it since the pipes and chip were fitted, is probably the chip, - go for a FIM Ultimap and get it setup for your bike. - or get a decent chip for 54mm open pipes.

If its only recently started then it may be blocked fuel filter or blocked air filter.....

I used to own a 996s with 54mm pipes and mine was fine apart from the odd popping from the silencers when on the over run.

Thanks for the info boys. I have thrown it back at Hackett's with an oil leak thrown in for good measure!

My 998s with 50mm temi`s and Dp ECU does that after a thrash, completely cuts out in fact. Then i have to waite for a minute or so before it will restart.????????????????????????

ps I`m told a lot of duke do this!

Have a read of Shazaam's response on this, as it offers a (possible!) cure:

Have read the wise sage Shazams thought on the above but i know its a fueling problem and not a connector problem.

Methinks i will investigate further, thanks for the advice anyway. Take care.

From your description it sounds exactly the same, hence the reason I mentioned it, especially the "wait for a minute or so before it will restart" bit!!

Next time it happens, give Shazaam's trick a try and see if it works. Don't forget to let us know what happens...

Hacket is right they all do it. Its something to do with the second injector throwing to much fuel in. The way round this is to fit a FIM chip that only uses one injector or to fit a power commander to sort the fueling.
