Ok guy's here's what I've been dealing with for a year
My 04 FSE450 willnot come down to an idle while your riding the bike. You can start it and it will idle all day , but once you ride off it will not come down the rev range to idle , it just keeps going down to Zero. Works and rides perfect in all other area's of use ,it's just the idle problem that's killing me. There's no clutch drag ,new slave kit, valves are spot on , fuel mix has been enriched to try and keep it running , has a new air sensor. It show's it's self most when comming down to an idle in a hurry but will stall even at a stand still.
Say you round a corner on a single track and there's a sharp turn , so you pull in the clutch and brake at the same time , dead, or your rolling down a hill on the road to a stop sign , bang down a few gears pull in the clutch and again , dead. Now as I said ALL other area's it works perfect . Dealer was the one who told me to get one of the last ECU for the old magnet merelli system 07 I think but it's taking awhile and there's no guarantee that's the fix. If it was a carb I'd say it was the idle curcuit . I can put up with the 04 hard starting thing but not when it has to be done so offen. Cheers people.
