Got the new mav a little over a week ago. 2013 1000r, and took it out for the first time to do some trail ridding and had a blast. Was very impressed with the power but was pretty easy on it putting up and down dirt trails to break it in properly. Had fun it it was jumping up to 55mph easy and then I would back off and only did this a couple times to see what it had in it.
Took it out this weekend to Riley ranch on the Oregon dunes for the second ride. rolled it out of the trailer and took it up to pay for the camp site and it felt a little dogish so I putted around and let it warm up. Got on it a little on a long gravel straight only to be disappointed. It jumped up to 40mph and then super slowly kept accelerating 41......42...........43 if you get what I mean, and this was with my foot to the floor. And YES I had the proper performance key in it and I had it on sport mode. I tried the other key and switching from sport mode and combinations and it was slower of course. If felt like all the bottom end was there but I would get to 40 and pretty much top out there or maybe 45-50 if I would have held it to the floor for 10 seconds but I didn't want to do that. During this rpm felt like they were staying really low by the sound but I can't monitor them with my 1000r digital gauge.
The only thing I did in between rides was install a small 150 watt amp on the glove box of the factory battery running 2 tower 6.5 inch speakers. Could this have caused something? I did unhook the amp at one point this weekend cus I thought it was maybe causing a problem and there was no change
I'm pissed and gonna freak if my dealership can't fix this quick and get the power up to where it should be! If you guys have any ideas please let me know. Thanks a lot
