| Description of the problem | With roughly . 9 gallons of fuel in tank, when leaving a full stop, vehicle pauses hard on acceleration. Probable cause is fuel starvation caused by fuel flowing back in the tank, away from the front-located fuel pump, starving efi system of gasoline. As fuel moves forward after a brief pause in forward momentum, the pump has access to the fuel and the bike suddenly lurches forward. This happens multiple times as the fuel in tank travels forward and aft. Extremely unsafe condition at low speeds, especially at intersections when this is most likely to occur. |
