after a few days of rain the bike was running rough again, was thinking 3/2 out of 4 plugs working. I've noticed this morning when I pulled out all the coils that the water ingress is from the coil itslef. It's coming in at the top of the rubber sleve that sits on the rocker cover. I'll try and...

no apparently about it mate, my ABS module failed, that's technology for you I suppose, it either works or it dosen't. THe abs light came on on the way home from a spin and it never recovered. Just for info or future failures, the ABS module I got from ebay was from a 2013 model XT and it works...

Quick Update I spotted an ABS module on ebay (it was only up a few hours) and I took a chance and I bought for a great price of £150. It arrived today and I'm just after fitting it and it worked. I'm over the moon. I just have to do another bleed tomorrow morning and I'm done. So so happy!!

Thanks for that, that's good to know. I'm fairly sure the ABS unit is kaput because it wont even preform a test/cycle the ABS. The brakes are working indpendantly now. I'll have to remove the ABS unit to get it tested and hopefully repaired. New & used units are very expensive here. The reason...

The front & rear wheel sensor is fine because I was getting a speedometer reading on the way home. I did clean the sensors and made sure there was an earth to them where the bolt makes contact with them. I'm curious about keeping anything magnetic away from the sensor? isn't the plate of which...

interesting thread with very helpful tips!! I'm in a spot of bother with my ABS unit. I reckon it's now a failed unit. I went for an off-road ride the other day and I never turned off the ABS. I did slam on the rear brakes a few times. On the way home on the road the ABS light came on and...

Yes, I think this is the best option. If all else fails, at least there will be a new battery in the bike!! Thanks

Hi, no, only the tyres last week. It has been running like a dream for months. Quick Edit!! Update: I took the advice from EricV in the previous post at the start of the thread about clearing the codes. I wrote all the dianostic codes down this evening and checked them against the manual and...

Hi Karl, well done on sorting your bike mate. My bike started giving me trouble yesterday evening coming home from work. I went to work yesterday morning with no problem, started fine yesterday evening as it should and 2 minutes into my journey home it started struggling like I lost a cylinder...

Thanks Karl, Replied (I think) to your PM, not sure If it got to you, still making my way around this forum!! lol

Howya Tom, Welcome aboard dude

I have this exact same problem on mine. It is driving me nuts!! I had a 700km ride out this weekend and it was this for the whole trip. it can't be good for the engine. I have a small video of my jumpy throttle but I'm not sure If I can upload it here? Just few questions!! Do I take off the...

lol, sorry about that, my fingers were too fast for typing and my keyboard is shite!! I meant "it was" replaced with a Gen 1 CCT. not to worry, it's now hanging with all the rest of failed parts that I've come across through the years!

Ya, confirmed it today with JT himself, It was yours alright and It was well looked after by you and it will be again as long as I'll have it. I'm in the middle of doing the second valve adjustment, 5 from 8 out but it's all good.

Thanks for the info EricV, I'm in the middle of doing the second valve adjustment, I've ordered a manual CCT for it. The CCT was replaced during it's first Valve adjustment, but was it replaced with the original Gen 1 CCT. I just wanted to know which part failed.

I've tried searching and searching but I couldn't find anything about why the CCT fails. I'm still finding my way around this forum Does anybody know which part of the CCT actually fails? my educated guess would be either the spring or the retracting screw shaft? From what I can see from the...

Thanks folks!! Howya RIVA, I could have your old S10, there's not many around Cork so could be?? All I know is that I'm the third owner of it, I bought it in JT's in Innishannon. I didn't get much info from him about the bike, but I knew I wanted it as soon as I saw it. I'm hoping it was...

Will do, I actually noticed carbon build up on the intake valves when I took off the TB's. Additive did spring to mind alright ::008::

cool thanks. I just ordered a manual one. I noticed when I took out the CCT it came apart out in my hand (internal stay came out of the housing), I haven't investigated it yet but I'm sure this is not normal from them. Thanks for that!

My bike is stripped down to do the valve clearances. There's 84K km on the bike and it seems like the clearances have been checked & adjusted before (1 shim looks different to the rest). I have 5 valves out of spec, all Ex. valves and the first In. valve in cylinder #1. All Ex. valves out of...
