My RM has only one mode that I know of. It does happen at all speeds. If you let the speed get down too low, the engine will lurch. I think it's a computer thing where the engine thinks it's about to stall so it gives a kick to get back up to speed.does this happen in all riding modes on your RM?
Yes, of course you have to pull the clutch. But with the Indian, if you don't do it soon enough, you get this kick in the pants. With my Vulcan, the engine would just start to groan and shudder until it stalled. I think the Indian situation is dangerous until you realize that you have to pull the clutch a lot earlier than usual.Man! I, myself and my service manager went back and forth so many times with a particular customer that had issues with this. He was very upset about the surge and said in all his 40 years riding. Never experienced this. We did our best to explain to him that he needs to pull in the clutch when coming to a stop. when rpm's come down. He refused and kept fighting us. Was wanting us to take the bike back. Claimed it was gonna get him killed one day. Ultimately my manager got a bike as well and rode around with him, to watch his riding habits. They even switched bikes. Finally the customer conceded and learned to pull the clutch in. No more issues.
That's always been the way I was taught to ride and drive my manual transmission vehicles.
