Well, anyone with any pointers for me. Just been for a ride, no issues, pop into the shop, come out, the bike starts and as soon as you pop into first the engine cuts. No lurching forward or the likes. I assume it's the sidestand switch, but whats the quickest roadside way to get going again...

I have a 2004 RSV1000 factory motor in my cafe racer, which i am nearing completion, problem is that the wiring loom had to be significantly altered to fit the bike. As a result the injectors won't fire and the bike won't start. ECU not switching injectors to ground. here is the diagnostic so...

Could someone please shed some light on why my bike's Idle is to high? It used to run at the correct idle of 1250rpm but the last 6-7 start ups its increased. On start up it goes up to approx 2000rpm (which its always done), after a few seconds down to 1500-1700rpm then wont go down anymore...

I have a few hundred miles on my new 2007.5 Tuono (first service not yet done) and have encountered a problem I was hoping someone out there could help me with. During shifting the engine sometimes dies. This has happened when the engine is running warm and dry. The problem crops up when I am...

I have a 2007 Tuono R and think it's great but just lately have started having snags when starting. Bike starts ok but as soon as it's started it revs to 4500-5000rpm and sticks there, doesn't happen every time it's intermittent. Has been back to dealer under warranty but they could only...

Right ,,,i got twin Akrapovic pipes on my Edwards Mille, been advised by a very helpfull copper that i will be ticketed if stopped, coz they are for race use only (engraved on the shoulder). They really are not that loud ? I dont want to change them, but could do without the hassle...

Any ideas? Have a 2005 RSVR with a dash problem. When riding (usually when very warm) redline light comes on at pretty much any revs. Worse the sidestand light comes on + redline light + 'error light' comes on + revs/speedo everything drops to zero as though igntion on but not started up...

Morning all, first time on here so please be gentle with me! Got a 02 plate RSVR Mille and for some reason I'll be riding along happy as Larry and the bike will just cut out and lose all power. I look down at the dash after making sure there's no-one behind me and the EFI letters are flashing...
