    For sure... even if it's a complete waste of time, at least you know where you stand. I was in your shows for months, and finally got tired of it. Legal action was my last option.

    Looks like they're not interested in pursuing it as a Lemon/MM Warranty issue, though they did say they'd pass my info over to the consumer products side of things...

    Shop called, after the OEM Tech Line required them to do a compression test, leak-down, and valve inspection, they found nothing wrong--surprise!

    I mean, that's like open heart surgery for a headache, not exactly a related issue. Tech Line kept claiming there might be "carbon build up" that was "causing issues at altitude".

    Carbon build up? On a bike with 2,000 miles, really?

    Seriously, who hires these Tech Line idiots?

    Next stop: fuel pump

    --which isn't the issue, as the condition is altitude-dependent. If the pump were failing it'd do it all the time, not just when I'm in the mountains on a hot day--my guess is still some sensor reading out of range.

    I'd say it'd had a bad map, but they already swapped the ECU, so it's got to be something isn't reading/feeding info properly to the ECU...which, I'd guess, is a sensor of some kind...barometric pressure, O2, MAF/MAP whatever this thing has...
