Of course rite after my warranty is up my bike acts up!!! I was riding my bike at about 90mph & slowed to approx 45 do to traffic. When I attempted to accelerate the bike just started to bog. road it home(about 30 mile). Never cut off but when playing with throttle seemed like throttle ony worked to 30%. If i cranked it anymore than that it bogged out worse. Well i took the bike to the closest Aprilia dealer on July 16th. I was told at dropp off that it sounded like fuel line issue & that there was a recall regarding that issue. After waiting over 2 weeks for the fuel line to come in we find out that that did not solve the problem. Hmm Lets see, my bike has been at dealer over 7 weeks & today I call to get status & they say they have had it on dyno all day & suspect it is still a fuel issue(u think?)...possibly fuel pump but want to make sure before they order since pump will cost $800+!!!!! :dunno
if anyone has any ideas or experience with similar issue please advise before i spend an additional $800 on fuel pump & find out its something else.
