Hey all!
I just got my new motorcycle about 4-5 days ago and i've been putting down about 300km total for the time being. One thing I'm curious about is the fuelreading - it says mine has used about 5.5 liters since i've last reset it and 2 bars have gone.
Since the reserve kicks in at around 3 liters, that gives it about 6 liters left for 2 bars, is that the normal range or has something been wrongly calibrated? Perhaps the tank floater is giving a wrong reading?
Also,when changing gears, especially from 1st to 2nd - do you usually rev it up a bit before changing or do you change asap? I usually just get of the starting line up to about 20km/h and then switch but when I do, it feels like it looses a bit of power - perhaps that is due to my early shift?
Also, when killing the throttle, will your engine also "stutter" when listening to it? Doesn't sound like a smooth idle more like - we'll it's hard to explain. It also makes the bike jerk a bit when killing the throttle as well.
Anybody else experience or thought about any of this?
