    well first one my bikes lurching backwards on full throttle down snet back straight. Fuel filter ? Bazzaz sensing something dodgy ?
    My gi pro gear sensor thingy only shows 5 gears not 6
    The bike won't stop wheelieing ? Extend wheel base ?
    Thanks. Most important is the lurching is proper off putting

    Wheeling could just be poorly set up rear shock squatting causing it.

    Tesco 99 fuel
    I had a softer spring fitted to stop the rear comin off the floor on braking. Could this have caused wheelie ?
    Thanks jimbo
    Another issue .... My knuckle rubs on the top of my gloves so much that it Hert and I couldbt brake properly. Had to go back to my old Knox beaten up ones

    did you try disconnecting the indicater to see if this was causing the issue? could a number of things,but that would be 1st thing to see if it's that.
    as for everything else.

    wheeling in what gear?.a softer rear spring to stop it lifting? but it's the front that causes that,unless your talking more skittling about? but a different spring just for that seems a bit of a strange way of going about it.

    more info needed....

    Had a feeling u would say tesco!

    I'm getting about one customer a week calling in saying their cars not running at 100% first thing I ask is where u getting fuel from, if they say supermarket I tell them to run it down and fill up at say bp, shell or the likes. They come back saying cars ok after a week.

    Ditch the fuel first, don't bin it yet and try different fuel.

    Try a good fuel treatment to clean injectors, I only use forte. If u get stuck I sell it cos u can only get it in a few places but it works

    Oh wow I thought the 99 would be ok. Can't use anythin but shel in my car cause it will stutter if not. Bit like that lol. Il try real fuel next time thanks

    From the first time iv had a blade iv lifted the rear wheel on brakin. Tried the front it never did much for that problem it just ruined the front. My mate said adjust rebound on the rear and it worked but made tyre wear on the rear terrible. So got advised to put a softer spring in at the end of last year but didn't get to ride it. First time this weekend and I wasn't near my old pace on a slower bike. Even climbing over the front didn't keep it down.
    The gear indicator wouldn't see 6th even after a re plug and reset
    I used hard compound dunlop tyres was that a right decision for the temperature for this weekend
    Sorry for lots of writing

    A customer of mine has a 520i Bmw and the one and only time he put tesco fuel in, set off from pump after few mins run sicker then a blackpool donkey. Misfire, splutter lumpy as hell
