Help please chaps!! Just taken delivery of an 1198 SP and covered about 50 miles. Intermittently throughout the ride it would misfire throughout the rev range. Dash indications all normal with no warning lights. Middle 40 miles no issues at all....any ideas as a starter? Also, the rad fan didn't appear to come on at any temp setting. Is there a fuse/common problem with them? Thanks in advance
The cable to the front coil (spark stick) can chafe through on the oil cooler or radiator if not secured correctly, you should be able to check by removing the v panel in front of the oil cooler rad. Kev.
Quickshifter is removed and a race shift lever in place after seeing pics of lunched gearboxes. However, I didn't turn it off on the dash....think that may be a player?
No, you don't need to turn the DQS off on the dash just unplug it. I've been running mine like it for the past 4 years without any problems.
Start simple. Has the bike been stood? Old petrol? Crap in tank? Age/ mileage fuel/air filters. Spark plugs? check all the lives and earth are clean and tight.
