Noob in need of advice

Post by Gadea »

Hey guys. New to forum and R1's. I need mechanical/technical advice. I have a 2008 4c8 and i have a problem with random stalling. The patterns I've noticed are
1. Only happens when baffles are out.
2. Once the bike has warmed up.
3.When coming to a stop and clutch is in.
4. Happens at almost exact point in journey each time.
5. Once bike switched off/on it hasn't happened twice on 1 journey.
Someone suggested previous owner may not have had it tuned properly once they put akrapovics on and it just needs remapping.
Im not very technically savvy, any advice is welcome.
