I have not checked the connections, as all the bulbs seem to continue working I've not really considered a loose connection? Could well be though..

Driving me batty.. .. When you start the bike the indicators flash at a standard rate. When on the move (rpm.. or battery charge related?).. .. the indicators have a mind of their own, they flash as if a bulb is out but all are ok. .. If you slow back down after about 2 minutes it settles and goes back to a regular flash rate!!? The indicators were on it when I got it but I think they have halogen bulbs rather than the standard ones (indicators are slightly smaller than OEM) Do you have any ideas? I was thinking about a relay to slow it down like used when you have LEDs but then I figure it's going to be too slow at slower speeds? Thanks for any ideas!

Yeah that was my general thinking. I don't mind going up to 80 with it as is anyway just got me thinking one very windy day how much difference it's make. Think i'll put the money towards some new sockets or the service next week. (hopefully for a less noisy engine! see other post lol) I agree naked is best; and i prefer twin to single currently although do like both

Don't forget that the figure quoted is the tank capacity, usually the funnel down to the tank can hold 2 litres.. you'd have to be right on empty to achieve it though.

I'm considering a fly screen for my Bandit which features twin dominator style headlamps. Has anyone had any experience with these: http://www.justbandits.com/shop/product ... ry=related http://www.bikefactors.com/DOMINATOR-FL ... 17560.html http://www.bikermart.co.uk/proddetail.a ... =SCRUDOM01 http://www.justbandits.com/shop/uploads/images_products_large/553.jpg To be honest it looks like the same screen at varying prices. Now.. does this detract from the naked style look that I love about my bike? Will it add the functionality i'm looking for i.e. force some wind over/round me on the motorway? Looking for any kind of input

I've run mine til it stopped once. Had the tank on reserve the whole time.. when it coughed i went to switch it.. 5ft later.. out of fuel I got a fuel can delivered to me and chucked it in.. .. off i went with no ill effect.. wouldnt want to keep doing it though just in-case i was lucky that one time. On that note I did it on my old CG more than once and it was always fine.

No good though as the largest socket is only 19mm apparently and that is like 5mm too small for the largest nut head on my bike and the next largest being 22mm. It looks like a good all rounder but i'd rather spend the extra for less parts and get the £99 set with up to 32mm socket. http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... QAWidgetID I think that will be my next purchase after pay day!

I have an iridium blue visor and a clear one. If it looks like rain I just use the clear one. If it looks clear then i'll use the iridium and take the clear one with me. The times I travel to and from work I end up riding into the sunrise on the way to work and into the sunset on the way back so it does come in handy!!

Well I hope you had a good time I've decided not to post tentative availability until my bike is tucked up safely in my garage

Doesnt sound like fun.. why are you thinking of giving this a miss? I'll call the guy and see how my bikes doing at some point today

That's what i'd do to.. i'll only know at the end of the week.. at the moment it's bleak.

I do wish you all the best though and hope it all goes grand!

Thanks lewis; I dropped it off at an Auto-Electrician last week to fix the brake light and he's done that and the indicators. He's a good chap and is going to replace my oil cooler hose while he has it so i've left it with him for a while.

I'd have liked too but I have a year anniversary meet to attend.

I may join you Neil providing I have the bike back Itching to get out on a meet.. but at the same time want everything on my bike working properly

It's a Superbyke SBS125 .. he posted it on his hello thread

Good idea for a test that

There has to be something draining it as that is an usually short amount of time for a battery to last. You have any other auto electricians you can take it to? I'm sure that the other ones must have agreed that it's going flat a little to quick? How can they say that's normal?

screw it i dont have to be there all day, i will come along on my own!! i'll try and be there at 12 by the short track circuit?? .. i may cycle as I dont want to try and move my car through those queues!

No bike Hose is on order so won't see it til next week now I'm debating whether to come along in the car?

thank you

I voted Sunday. I'll prob only come along if my bike is back by then though i reckon

Where is that thread, i've looked in Southern meets to no avail.. looked for something with bmf in the title...

Speed for me is not a problem.. depends on the distance and date as i don't currently have the bike in possession. I've arranged a couple of meets before for cars so if you need any help with anything i'd be happy to lend a hand... even if it's just to bend your ear to make it a bit closer to where i live Maybe i'll add myself to this map.

BMF This Weekend
