    How to gain access to the Diagnostic Mode CO adjustment

    I think its because its a twin... But yes, all gears after ~3500 rpm even in T mode (although they're more smooth). I rarely go above 5000 anyway except, maybe, when off-road but I'm not looking, obviously. Its specially noted when recovering without gearing down. Actually, I tend to notice it...

    How to gain access to the Diagnostic Mode CO adjustment

    Guys, I've read the whole thread. I'm getting my BMC air filter (hopefully this week) so i'm going to wait before messing with CO settings. But before I do I still have some questions. First, mine never died on traffic or even off-road and I ride mostly with mode T (I ride a lot with my 10yr...

    Yammy FZ1?

    The Wasp (& Mrs Wasp) big weekend out.. As much a product review as ride report

    Only seen 'roos in a zoo... They look cute ::) O:-) If you can take some photos of that night ride showing the rough terrain with and without the lights that would be awesome. I'll look forward to it.

    The Wasp (& Mrs Wasp) big weekend out.. As much a product review as ride report

    Note to self: Drink coffee before anything in the morning... sorry about that. Also need to learn not to jump posts... I have another question. Did you use the Denali lights? Any comments?

    Shutting engine off in traffic.....

    Keep it running and in gear just in case. I've almost had "close encounters" with idiots that almost hit me when I stopped at cross-walks and because traffic lights never stay red for long.

    Lemoned my 800 GS finally

    HELL on earth. Good luck getting all the refunds. I don't mind to leave my bike or car for servicing with a problem at the dealer as long as the issues are solved or at least get an explanation other that the one given by the computer.

    XT1200Z Engine Comments

    Want a relaxed engine? Use D-mode T Want power? D-mode S should take care of if. People complaining for 10hp... unbelievable. Are there races for large trails that i'm unaware of?

    Aux Lights: options

    I decided on the Denali. Even mailed twistedthrottle (which promptly answered my questions, BTW) and now I'm only waiting for funds :) I'm really impressed by those LED lights.

    LED tail light?

    Since the R6 of 2005 this tail light is used and finally found its way to the XT12. There were already several alternatives for the R6 that, i belive, would fit into the XT12, namely ones with turn lights built-in... O:-)
