Took the 1150 for a spin this afternoon to check out my new Wilbers (fantastic by the way) and one of them there tuning chips from John
Bimbled up to the dual carriageway, noticed that the popping on over run had disappeared :thumb, acceleration and general performance much better. Once on the bypass opened it up a bit (5k ish revs) turned round at r'bout and gave it some proper stick up through the gears, on shutting off throttle to start changing down a fuck off loud bang :eek:and engine stops. Side of road (central reservation) have a look round and find the right hand throttle body has been blown out of its rubber connection to the head, managed to push it back in a little bit and she fired straight up. Rode home carefully, connection loosened and redone, good look round and can't find or think of what caused it.
Bike running fine:confused::confused::confused:
 
Happened to Motörhead (rip) on an off road ride around Derbyshire. Never seen it before or since until today.

You're a brute!!! :D
