Hi, I am new here.
Question: Can a low battery cause a slight engine stumble/ hesitation at speed? Happend a couple of time on my wifes ride but then nothing.

There are no codes to download from the computer.

A low battery can cause all kinds of weird problems. Could possibly have been something in the fuel system breaking loose and causing a small hesitation. Have you tried having the codes read anyway? There could be a pending code in the system. However, the lower end scantools/code readers will not usually pick up pending codes.

Thanks for the info. I found 2 bad plugs on the backside, seems to have done the trick. Yes I tried to read the codes but my code reader indicates no codes.
Code reader is an Actron CP9550.
