Well its happened to me. I have owned the bike for 9 months. It been ridden local and not in the rain until recently. While in Austin for the MotoGP and Ducati Island ( Enclosed Trailier). The bike got ridden in some rain to the track one morning. Funny the next day it hesitated and missed then the EOBD light came on. I turned the key off and then restarted and it went out. No problems since then. May be my imagination, but it may be running a little rougher but cant swear to it.
Well this last weekend I took her to NOLA for a track day. Trailered in some pretty good rain ( Open Trailer) to the track. Did not run in the morning sessions but after lunch the track began drying. I went out but did run through some smaller wet patches and puddles but nothing bad.
During my third session, after about 3 laps the EOBD light came on . Bike was running fine, temp good, nothing out of the ordinary. I pulled into hot pit, shut the bike down to check things and now she wont start. I turn the key on, fuel pump cycles, EOBD light stays on and nothing happens when I hit the starter. Dead silence.
TTRNO has a speed shop at the track and I just let them have it to take back and fix, I wish I had taken it back home and did some checking myself but just was not thinking. I should have gotten codes, checked battery etc.
Put a Shorai battery in about 8 months ago, but voltage was showing good. I hope its a fuse, relay or something simple and not expensive.
When I do get the bike fixed will make sure check all connections etc. I have always heard the 999 does not like wet....................now I believe it.
