2004 Buell XB12s
So normally my bike starts from cold perfect. But yesterday and this morning it’s being a right pig to start. It won’t idle any higher than 500-750rpm and if I don’t hold the throttle slightly it just cuts out? I’ve noticed as well the fan doesn’t kick in like normal. The last time I had problems like this it was the air intake temp sensor, am I right in thinking that sensor has something to do with idle as well?? It’s also started to miss fire when I roll off the throttle and sometimes when sitting at like 40/50mph it hiccups. i've just changed the plugs as they were well over due! i checked the battery terminals hadn't come loose. Can you clean the air intake temp sensor? I’ve got some contact cleaner would that be ok with it??

IATS has very little bearing on fueling, more likely engine temp sensor ?

When was the last time you did a TPS reset?
