I have a 2002 Buell Blast that is losing power in high gear. I was riding it Thursday am when the throttle all of a sudden I had no power doing 65 down the highway.  NOT a good feeling! Does anyone have any ideas ?

Das boot, or it could be the kickstand switch on a windy day - lol - happened to me, or loose plug wire as well.  One more thing is the vent line/valve could be sticking or kinked - if its not those - let us know - but it probably is. EZ

Kick stand switch - cut and twist wires together and tape to disable, the clutch safety switch - flip/turn around center diode in fuse box to disable.  Bet one of those works. EZ

My black bike never had a problem, but the red bike drove me nuts till I finally disabled the kickstand switch on it. EZ
