Oct 29 2009, 5:06 AM EDT
after 13.500Km I had to change both tires,both were at their limit: 1.5mm thread left took the Lasertec's again, witch costed me 314 Euro's. will report back in 1500Km when next maintanance is due. Christiaan 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Cheers Christiaan, it's terrific to be ale to keep track. I have to say it's obviously been very reliable...I know you put it to good use but I can't remember you writing about anything going wrong :-)

2. software-update
Monday, 6:38 AM EST
The past few weeks my bike began to stall when at idle,setting the "choke" a little helped, but that could only be temporarely. Last friday I took the bike to the dealer, and he informed that there was a software-update (witch I already knew) and 10 minutes later I had a "new" bike. Well, it feels like new: idle-RPM is now a steady 900-1000 (where it was below 800 before) starting the bike when cold is easier, I had no real trouble starting the bike , even when freezing, 2 - 3seconds now it starts right away! Some report an even higher milage out of a fuel-tank, but it's too soon to tell (weather is like hell: way too much wind and rain) And of coarse, there were no costs as it was a factory-update :) Christiaan 1 out of 1 found this valuable.

Michalis: let him reset the TPS (throttle position sensor), 99% that's what's wrong.Christiaan Do you find this valuable? |

"the dealer did the same to your bike too???Yes, the "new" in the software for the V7c is to get rid of the hic-ups of that engine-light. Re-routing some cables was the first thing they did, "new" software the 2nd. As for the idle, that's the TPS (99%) Other cause could have been (so my dealer told me) an air-leak somewhere. But is was the TPS that had to be reset. Takes less than 5 minutes to do (for the dealer that is) greetings Christiaan Do you find this valuable? |
