hi all me and the wife went over to strattford today we have a yearly motorcycle event called the balldog bash that takes place over there.
we pulled up in the bike park and there where 1000's of bikes riding through and parked up.
we walked around and stopped in pub was a lovely day been really hot aswell.
(BAD NEWS) i started the bike and pulled it away from the other bikes so the wife could jump on and it stalled.tried to start it and all i can hear is the starter motor turning but wouldnt start the engine and also i have got the f1 light on the dash flicking on and off.wouldnt start at all.so i phoned up the rac and the bloke came out,but he also didnt know what was up with it.we couldnt find the fuse box lol (due to me not knowing anything about bikes).so he said we would have to wait for the truck to come and take us and the bike back home.
while we was waiting we had two of the funniest americans come along and start taking pics of the bike and 1 of them said (is this your bike) i said yes he said (looks sweet) i said even better if it would start.
and he said i've heard of harleys breaking down but not busas lol .we all had a laugh and they went.
when the tow truck came along we got the bike on the truck and came back home.
all the trouble we have had today it really didnt matter i think that truthfully it has made the day and im really happy. but what i wanted to ask you all is have you ever had this f1 problem with your bike?
it's happened twise now and the dodgy dealer down the road to me it was oil in the fuss box but i find it hard to believe.i do have a pc3 usb under pillion seat with standard map could that be the cause?or is it the fuss box or a sencor.
the bike is outside now and we have good weather tomorrow and if i can fix it i would like to ride tomorrow due to the fact our weather is very tempermental plus i love riding my baby. if you can help please feel free to leave me a reply and i thank you very much.
kind regards
