Over revving at startup

    Just wondered if anyone's had the same problem as I've had with my 2012 Fatboy Lo.

    Go through the routine to start the bike, it fires up and revs it's guts out to like 4250rpm.

    Hit kill switch. Repeat above procedure 3 times with same result.

    Unplug ECM and reconnect - all good.

    It's only done it a couplr of times but it's fukn embarrassing, apart from the damage it might be doing to a cold motor.

    Just putting it out there, interested to see if anyone's had the same problem.

    That's a cheap fixit. Hope mine's nothing much.

    When ya start talking ECM etc it's over my head.
