  1. If you just said you washed it, don't tell them it was a jetwash. Sponge and water is all you used. The bike should cope with that. Speak with your local council Trading Standards or Citizens Advice. The sale of Goods Act 1979 should cover you....S14 Implied terms about quality or fitness. ss2B (e) Durability http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1979/54
  2. Have you done 400, and is that all the mileage on the bike. If so take it back to the dealer and let him sort it
  3. Sorry I can't help with your problem Tom, but I may be able to help you getting a reply. Try sticking a bit about yourself in the new members section that way folk will get the impression that you're sticking around and not just a fly by night, getting your answer and disappearing into the (blue) haze

    XS1100 Misfire

    Does it happen all the time or only when hot. I had an xs11 and coming home from Ireland one time in the pouring rain (what else) the same fault showed, and got steadily worse. When I eventually got home and checked it there was a hairline fracture in one of the coils. Obviously when hot it expanded allowing moisture in. New coil no more issues
  5. Well I scrolled down and No, I didn't love it

    Totally understand bud and can see it's advantages. My philosophy is bid and forget. I will bid as soon as I decide it's what I'm looking for, then just keep away until after the auction ends...works for me, but agree it's not a perfect policy

    I don't need that drewps. When I'm bidding on summit I ask myself what I'm willing to pay. From that figure I deduct the p&p and that is my top bid.....If I win I'm happy, if I don't, at least I never got caught in a bidding frenzy.....Oh and I steer clear when I'm on the booze
