Hello guys,
I've a 959 and i have only 500km.
I have noticed that after putting the first gear, if I pull the clutch and release it the engine revs go up to about 2000 revs and go down.
I tried with all maps, wet race qnd sport, with ebc 1 and off but is the same.
Is this normal?

There is no "fix", this is a feature. It's supposed to do this to make it easier to pull away from a stop. Every Panigale I've tried does this.

from the video I cannot tell what it is doing , but the relation to revving without throttle input is more than likely related to that micro switch and the communication it has to the ecu.

Are the levers stock ? Is that switch functioning properly? If the answer is yes then IMO you'll need to have a mechanic look at it.

it could also be normal, or possibly a software fix, maybe an adjustment

Also If you are not giving the bike throttle while actuating the clutch then this could be a normal reaction from the ecu.
It (the ecu)could be trying to keep the bike running at idle not knowing your engaging the clutch until the switch is tripped at the end of the engagement of the lever. In other words the bike is not meant to be driven without throttle input

In the video I Do not touch the accelerator, pull and release the clutch. I have all original moto, i have only 600km and the levers are original.
How to check if the switch works properly? Where is it located?
I'll try to make another video that you can see better

Thank you a lot

I am not sure , but as has been said judging by the video you posted it is working properly . the bike was not designed to accelerate without throttle input.
here is what I think:
when releasing the clutch on takeoff you must have some throttle input or the bike will try to compensate for your lack of throttle input in an effort to keep the bike running

I think this is done to stop stalling on takeoff . because big twins cough and die when a rider tries to take off on inadequate or insufficient throttle input.

so again all my opinion but I feel like if this feature was disabled the bike would stall more often especially for beginner riders.

I do not think it's normal. Accelerate when I pull the clutch and not when I release it.

Interesting, never noticed this on my 2015 1299 base. Might have to give it a try.

It's because it starts giving a little more power during your release phase, then when you suddenly remove the load it will jump a little bit. Completely normal. My 1299 does exactly the same. Try in neutral, and it will be completely stable.
