Called two Dealers.  One knew nothing and he called CFmoto USA Service contact.  Knew nothing. 
Second dealer knew right off that there is a ECU function that controls the throttle and will delay if you are left foot braking and right foot hitting the throttle.  Designed to not provide throttle until braking signal has cycled through ECU.  Sounds exactly as to what is happening and says he gets the question all the time if there is a way around it.  There is not a work around.  So I guess I slow down!!  Thanks

I am reading conflicting posts on whether 800 g2 has a brake limiting switch that affects throttle response.  I will disconnect it and test the hard braking/acceleration response.  I saw something else that said while in Low gear there is such a limitation. I can definitely recreate the issue by hard brake the get on it.  It's like, push the pedal then a second or two it kicks in

If it's a faulty brake safety limiter switch....you can troubleshoot it to see if it's the issue by simply finding the pigtail connection inside the front left wheel well near where the brake pedal housing comes thru the firewall....should be either a gray or white colored plug. Simply unplug it and run the machine. Press the gas pedal and  brake pedal simultaneously and take note whether the machine cuts out. If it doesnt then you know you've unplugged the correct pigtail. Next...drive the machine normal ro see if your initial issue persists.

I think I figured it out why the 800 trail hesitates after hard braking and then getting back on the throttle.  I understand there is a brake switch that is installed into the brake master cylinder that cuts out the engine Fuel delivery when braking hard then jumping back in the throttle.  It is only for a couple seconds but very noticable if you drive with left foot on the brake and right on the gas in tight spaces. Supposed to be a safty feature.

Dealer knows nothing about the intake pipe collapsing but did mention that the throttle electronics do cause some delay if there is large quick swings in RPMS.  I am launching fast then brake hard for corners then back into the throttle.  That is when there is a delay before the engine kicks up the rpm again.

I just saw a response that says CFMOTO has a fix for it.  Something to sdo with the air filter  pipe collapsing at high rpm.  Cant find the response now!

Normal driving around is perfect.  When I drive it hard with a lot of throttle, then back off to slow down, and then try to punch it again, the engine seems to hesitate a bit then it kicks in.  Wondering if this a typical when dropping down from high rpm and braking hard, to kicking it in again.

SOrry left this out of previous post.  Do not want to go too large on tire as to require a clutch change.

ZForce 800 EX, 53 & Trail / 2023 Wheels and tires

Looking at possibility of new tire and wheel package to go with same tire size all around.  Looking for good street and offroad capabilities.  Any suggestions or Pics would be appreciated

I do have a Motive Power Bleeder I bought for my BMW car that I can try.    Do you know a source for the right size reservoir cap for these systems?
#13
Has anyone else experienced a spongy brake pedal after the installation on the parking brake and new calipers?   Dealer said they bled the system and I also re-bled them twice.  Still the pedal seems spongy and travels closer to firewall.  I did the two man bleed process where one is pumping and the other is releasing at the nipple.

forgot to mention 2023 Zforce 800 trail!!

Does anyone know the size in mm of the 2023 brake master cylinder cap.  I want to use may pressure bleeder and trying to source the right size cap that will screw on to the master cylinder.  Yes my Zforce is at a different location than I am right now!
