limp home mode … okay when fuel runner unplugged

Hey guys. Today I was just riding and my renegade 1000 went into limp home mode I let it sit for a while and it wouldn’t start. Unplugged the ground and it started up. Ran it for a bit coul not mmaintain idle until it was running around for 20 min. So after it was running good I plugged in the controller. Within 10 feet it went back into limp mode. Unplugged it and it ran fine. It would stall with the Controller plugged in at idle. I need some advice Iam tthinking it is thr controller. Get Torqued blink box which I think is dolce controller. Thanks for the advice and help

Renegade Mirror Question

I ordered the Can-Am mirrors for my 2011 Renegade and the left side screwed right into the existing mounting hole on the handlebars. I went to do the right side and the mounting hole is there- but the damn bolt on the mirror is too small and they want me to attach it with a mount! Why can’t I just get a mirror that will fit in the existing mount? Or can I?

If there was any room to just break down and use the mount I would but there isn’t. I don’t like the mirrors on my Renegade but I want to be able to keep track of the kids when we ride.

Think I’m getting the last one

Insurance company is in the deciding phase of if it gets fixed or totaled. $7100 to fix it, when dealer blue book is $6500 on current value of a ’12 base renegade 1000. Just got off phone with bank and insurance agent to get the last black/yellow XXC I think in NYS!!!! Found 4 of the digi camo/green, but not overly crazy about it, plus its $500 more. New machine is still in the crate, so hopefully get to pick it up sometime next week. They are bout 2 hours away, so hope can get out of work early before they close, cause I don’t think I can wait till next weekend!!!!:yahoo::th_smiliebanana2::th_smiliedanc e::th_smiliewoo:

Muzzy is loud

WOW! Just took out the new dual slipons (w/quiet core & spark arrestor installed) w/digituner out for its maiden voyage. Did 63 kms of back roads so I was cruising between 60-80 kmh for most of the ride and WOW!!My ears are ringing. Im pretty sure I will be using ear plugs from now on. I knew what the muzzy would sound like when you are riding behind it or standing around it because my buddy has them for his Outty, but I never realized how loud it is when riding it. It sounds awesome, but DANG my ears!
