    I it’s a fair point. When the hero blobs on my 1100 Blackbird started touching the ground I traded it in for a Fireblade.:)

    Power mode 1 traction 3 eb 3 and a2 suspension.
    The throttle response is great in all environments except this issue which occured twice today.
    I'm prepared to experiment and see if I can pin it down as I suspect I'm just being a little sloppy with my hand control and need to be more direct.
    If it's not that then I got an electrical glitch somewhere. I'm also thinking that as it's not serviced yet and some manufacturers use a very thin oil for running in maybe it was just clutch slip under a rapidly cracked open throttle as I I can wind it on slightly more slowly no probs at all.
    Just a thought

    For what its worth, and if my memory serves me correct, been a long time since last ridden ! :oops:

    My throttle is a bit blah, several stalls misfire... !!!! but then I've got a massive 46 miles and a Rapid Race Module with full system so I put it down to that. Apparently the RRM is self learning and continues to do so. Although the dealer has said it still should be silky smooth while it learns ..

    We shall see .

    You can can book them, but it doesn't mean that they won't get cancelled 2 days before they're due to go ahead. It's happened 3 times so far.

    At last. It's been just parked up in the workshop since a quick test ride
    to feel out the quick-shifter after I finished fitting it back in February. Finally
    a short buzz out and back over the lovely sunny South Downs.
    Pity you can't see any of the changes I've made but this is looking west from High-and-Over.
