Dear all i'm a new member. First of all my regards to all the ST 1300 user a really fantastic bike. I have a 2002 version and for my opinion a bike with a line that is also beautiful today. Fron sometime I have a problem with the knock sensor and when i achive little bit more then 4000 rpm switch on the FI light, and the bike reduce little bit the power. I don't know if someone have already speck about the knock sensor problem. I read on internet that there is a way to bypass the knock sensor using a Zombie Hack that means connect the 2 wire in the ECU of the 2 sensor with piezoelectric disk. There is someone that have done this modification and are able to explain me how to proceed? Best Regards
 
there's quite a bit on the subject on the site here and other honda forums concerning the knock sensor faults
there are a variety of possible non ECM related things you can check and will find on this and various other forums
it seems that late last year some pretty good progress was made with with respect to poor installation of op amps on specific modules of ECMs over a wide range of applications during a certain period
My situation is with a 2003 bike that I bought with 4700 hundred original miles
I dismantled inspected and (didn't even have to clean) checked everything associated
In my case, it's the modual; not going to start bastardizing connections and so forth to let anyone say yeah well, look what you did to it
Now that Honda knows that we know what they've known all along I think something like a recall will happen
call it a hunch
