surging

I have only just acquired a Very tidy 2008 XTR with only 3540 miles on the clock and I must it goes very well it is bog standard.
I have read so much about this surging and wondered how it manifest its self.

Probably best you don't know how surging manifests itself then - if we told you the symptoms, then you'd go looking for it, and probably find it. Ignorance is bliss!




















Don't say I didn't warn you, but... If you really want to know, then read this:

lucky me

I have read the problems with surging and I must be lucky as I not detected any surging and hope that remains so.

Hi

I've got a XTR 2007 and I don't experience any surging either, only the usual big single engine braking. Carful throttle control gives a smooth ride

My bog standard 2008 XTR also demonstrated none of the infamous surging issues.

Then I installed a 2 into 1 exhaust system and quickly discovered what all the fuss is/was! Clearly I upset the state of tune that it was in to run nicely, my bad!

My XTR 2007 is a pain in the .....
No problem at 110km/h but still. Really love the bike but this could be a main reason for next bike in future.
