ive never had one fail yet but i have had the neutral switch fail a few times as well as the clutch switch.
-
possibly the kill switch,as xxitanium says . are you trying to start it with the bike on the centre stand with the sidestand up. is it in gear and side stand down,is it in neutral and sidestand down but neutral light not on .if so its a faulty neutral switch . Just checked on my 99 model with bike in gear and sidestand down.the fuel pump still cycles .

40 psi.sport touring tyres have come a long way since buying my first blackbird.the bridgestones i used to run,i think they were bt 020 were kaput by around 10,000klms
-
the road 6's i had on my blackbird ,rear i replaced at 24'000klms and front was about 33'000 klms.the handling had gone off a few thousand klms before i replaced them but tread was still legal. speeds on open roads i would be doing between 100kph and 140 kph with occasional higher speeds.speed cameras everwhere in aus now. my bike is my everyday transport so lots of accelerating from lights to get way in front of cars,and if a bike happens to pull up next to me it becomes a race here the centres wear out first but in europe the centres are like new and the sides become like slicks within around 15'000 klms.

Motorcycle oil thread, because it's been too long.

i saw similar here in aus with castrol oil.reading the description they were the same oil but different looking stickers with a $25 price difference -
bmw have only been making drive shafts for motorcycles since 1923.they need to ask the japanese manufacturers how to make them reliable in the modern world . at least with drive chains i can monitor what it going on with the drive line rather than have a drive shaft fail in the middle of nowhere

yep. had the rear replaced nearly a year ago just before i headed over the other side of aus.just checked my records,the rear had about 23000klms on it and still not quite at the wear bar but not knowing how quick the last bit of tread would last i replaced it before heading across the nullabor. the front i replaced in melbourne with probably close to 28000klms on it.the last thousand or so klms the handling was starting to go off. the front now has just over 23000klms on it and still feels good . the shop put the road 6 gt on the rear for my trip over east which i just replaced on friday with 28450klms on it.still not at the wear bars but the handling had gone off.i had the normal road 6 fitted again as i prefer the feel of it when cornering. the road 6 are pricey but fuck they last and they grip.

Im impressed with the michelin road 6.i get 24000klms out of rear and 27000 out of front.

i have looked at partzilla previously but once you take into account the exchange rate and shipping it is about the same price as buying in aus. many years ago i was buying parts from superbike toystore in florida and chains and sprockets from the sprocket centre.our exchange rate was a lot better and postage was cheap.
