| Strange misfire then too fast idle
Hi all,
Went for a nice Sunday ride this afternoon on the 748. Stopped the bike to go to cashpoint, went to restart and got quite a significant misfire the instant she fired up.
Once idling, everything seemed fine except the revs now sit at 2k (around 1,100 before). I carried on riding her for around 20 minutes. Power seems fine if opened up, but if crawling through town at 30mph in 4th or 5th gear, the misfire would occassionally come back - nothing major but definitely there.
The only other thing to note is that I thought by the time I ended my run (which finished with sitting in a bit of traffic for a few minutes) she seemed to be running warmer on the temp gauge than I would expect at this time of year (around 80°C). When I pulled up at the house, I turned her off and restarted and the revs still sit at around 2k.
She was serviced around 1500 miles ago with everything set up and synchronised correctly. Currently running 45mm open pipes, pipercross filter and JPH chip.
Is this the sort of behavior from a plug or plug lead breaking down or something more sinister?
Any help much appreciated
H
