Hi - I'm new to the V4 forum! Wanted to check with you guys some similarities with the issue.
_________
Took my V4 to the track for a Sunday stroll after getting it back from the dealers after two weeks to sort EM light issue – some debris got stuck in the exhaust flapper valve!!!
Anyway, after about 10 minutes into the first session, the bike behaved strangely on corner entry – jerking and shunting forward when the throttle was fully closed and even though braking. The quickshifter stopped working intermittently, but came back eventually.
Feeling almost like the auto-blip is out of sync, with the down-shift being quite harsh, I re-calibrated the tyres to see if this would make any difference.
Next session was fine for 1 lap, and then same thing – a shuddering shunt into the corner – and again - no quickshifter this time for the whole session. Also, at the settings menu in the right bottom corner, an error would be displayed in red next to the DQS option.
I then unplugged and re-plugged QS connector a few times, disconnected battery to reset ECU, changed tyres and re-calibrated again, but the problem would re-occur within the first lap, only disappearing upon ignition switched off for a few minutes and switched on again.
I ended up riding old-school using the clutch the rest of the day.
Bike is in for repair now, and the dealer says it is the second one for them.
______ I have noted some trends regarding the issue and wanted to confirm with you guys but it seems like the issue started after software update and effects mostly bikes built in February.
Your feedback is appreciated
