On my '07 Griso, I bypassed the stepper motor and this thing runs and idles like an Italian V-twin is supposed too. No more pesky "run-on" and taking a few seconds to settle back down to a normal idle (even when warm)...I have yet to encounter any cold start up issues; so far it fires right up and settles into a nice idle right off the bat. Before, the bike almost acted like it had a vacuum leak the way it would slowly find its way back to normal idle.
Here's my question, other than idle, is there any other area the stepper motor would affect the engine? What are any side-effects to leaving it bypassed? The stepper is still plugged in electronically, I just plugged off the nipples on the side of the throttlebodies.
p.s I have a slip-on muffler and never experienced any popping on deceleration now or before the stepper bypass...
Thanks
Scott
