Re: Told Not To Bring It Back!

I can only reiterate what bazza696 said and say learn to DIY if the shop's quality of work leaves the bike in a dangerous condition. Sometimes it can be the garage trainee who does the work who learns the trade from their mistakes... which you ride away on. If you spend the money that you would hav...

Re: Told Not To Bring It Back!

Sounds like you have a master cylinder seal failure, the leak can be misleading because it runs to the lowest point/part before dripping all over your paintwork & that's bad :thumbdown: Guess what I discovered on returning home from work tonight?! A fine droplet spray pattern on top of the RH f...

Re: reinstalling vista

At that point Window$ is looking for specific hardware drivers for your machine. They will be on your PC's recovery disks if you have them but most likely on a hidden partition on the original HDD.

I'd also double check the diaphrams as they were causing my surge issue even though they werent cracked or anything obvious after spending hunderds and hundreds on the bike a new diaphram would have fixed it for...
