This will make you laugh....... Many years ago I was involved with the speedway (cars). We were all set to go so I was sitting on the edge of our big toolbox just waiting to push the car out for our race. I can hear air escaping and thinking it was just a tyre pressure bleeder thought nothing of it...... Until my arse starts to burn. I hop up and the escaping air was an aerosol of Brakeclean I had been sitting on and my jeans were soaked.
Running to the changing rooms was agony. Finally get there, drop my daks and am frantically splashing water on my solvent soaked delicate area. Had some explaining to do to the poor witnesses of that little act.
Very cautious where I sit now !!
Another great day on the right side of the grass.😎

Years ago I had a weekend  job in  a motor factors that supplied lead acid batteries. They'd be supplied to the customer across the counter. I sat on the counter waiting for closing time stood up & the arse of me jeans fell off, rotted by the acid residue left on the counter, trip home was slightly awkward...
Started out with nothing, still got most of it left.

Nowadays that's what jeans are like when you get them from the shop. More holes than denim.

Would putting it on a dyno be any help locating what's going on when warm?

Checked (when warm) the peak voltage on camshaft position sensor (CMP), and crankhaft position sensor (CKP) yet?

Checked all the sensors when warm?
Checked for vacuum leak when warm?

Mj is your bike fitted with a meta alarm by any chance

Be intrered to know if all of you having problems have alarns fitted and what type they are

The very first thing I do when I buy a bike is to have any third party alarm REMOVED.
On  my previous Honda CB1300 the insuranc rose by the extortionate amount of £12 !!!

2 friends of mine work forbthe RAC and AA and they both claim the largest call out on bikes is for alarm faults ..

No alarm on mine there more trouble than there worth and they dont stop theft as most of the scum these days dont care if it is or it isnt alarmed
Im going to do one thing at a time and then try it as i would like to know what the cause is .... i dont think its a combination of things as it was perfect and then just started so im inclined to think its a single conponent .

Got me wondering now. Want to see the answer.

No alarm on this bike but I have never had any problems with alarms on any bike for the last 20 years, usually always fit one.

The strange thing is ive just service the tiger and the bloody thing did the same started running lumpy on the bottom  :confused1: , but the tiger has a 12 minute tune you can do and the ECU will retune its self at the lower end of the rpm range ... did that and it's perfect now .
But its got me thinking about the o2 sensor on the 14 and weather its faulty or dirty ?
