  1. That is no way to speak of my Mrs. Typo corrected.
  2. My digital-dash reminder lights up at 170 mile, and I fill up fairly promptly. The re-fill can be anything from 17 to 22 (eek!) litres. My sensor has been inactive for 20,000 miles, so has only been powered up for 15,000 prior to that. Hopefully it will have some miles in it before it goes the way of yours.
  3. Perfect! Thank you. Can someone guide me to the forum fund please? Not contributed for a while.
  4. hi, I have the tank off V11. Whilst my bike is registered as 2003, it maybe an early year masquerading as such, as it has an external fuel pump and relief valve. Not having an OEM dash, my low fuel sensor bypassed, and I would like to recommission it. Does anyone know the voltage that sensor is powered by? Does the sensor self regulate the current or is that limited by the “presumably” in series bulb?
  5. Hi Brian, I have been an SW Motech twice this year for my Honda. No issue with the products, but the delivery times to the UK? Not impressive to say the least.
  6. Discs are a consumable in my eyes. Whilst I don't use the brakes much on the road, on track I find the stability in braking is one of the V11's strong points and Renthal pads work a treat. I am often still hard on the gas when others are showing brake lights. Great for levelling other bikes and pinning them straight until I am ready to turn.

    V11 sentiment

    I often get comments after the first stint like, "Is your brake light and brake light switches working?" Followed by "How do you ride that brisk without braking?" The best one was "I am not going to ticket you today, as your brake light tells me you're riding well within yourself, but slow down. Have a safe day."

    Purely cosmetic

    I have a red mount for the clocks, red levers, red cylinder head protectors and red Hel front brake and clutch lines.
  9. I get 200 to a tank. Your fuel light gives you a range of near 60 miles I find. So that ties in with your figures. I have had mine down to 28 mp/ukg on a proper hoon!
  10. I have a side stand that was sold as in good condition. When it turned up, it had a hero chamfer like my original, so never fitted it. Now a decade hence, not likely to now. PM what it is worth to you and your send to address.
  11. 35000 miles and owned for 19 years. Nope.
  12. Stop a loose one rattling?
