hi bud , too be fair they had to remove the fairing crash bars, disconnect the spots. It's just very bad design from HONDA. ..Aljohnnyboxer wrote:£112 for a fuse - FFSmoto al wrote:Hi chaps, I picked my bike up this afternoon , replacement of a fuse,not covered under warranty .£112.00..ps and it's not even April 1st ....sore EH .Al

Ok, when you use a 12 volt charger, many device (like phones) cant actually take 12 volts so they have a "stepper" in line which takes the voltage down to 5 volts. If youy just plug in a cable without a stepper, it can cause damage (not always( to the device itselfmoto al wrote:.Hi mike as luddite, please explain .
