Thought I would share this story as it might happen to someone else,

Whilst in Austria one of my hella lights stopped working. Bought a new H3 bulb and it worked but the other stopped working. :confused:

Replaced that bulb and and then they both stopped :confused:

Finally traced it back to a bad earth in the steering stop but doing so blew fuse no5..... "Motronic" :eek:

Well at the time I didn't pay to much attention to it I just popped a new fuse in and continued the holiday.

Once returned and back in London traffic I noticed it was running like a dog especially between 2000 and 3000 rpm.

Did a search on hear and pin pointed a possible cure of resetting the Motronic by doing the remove fuse and turn throttle fully twice etc.

Well it worked and the bike is back running sweet again :clap

But bugger me sideways :eek: ..... put surging in the search and then prepare to sit down for a week :eek:

Had i not traced it back to the blown fuse and the fact that my bike has never run badly I would have probably started spending a lot of unnecessary money.

So a big thankyou to all the combined knowledge and experience that is available from the search facility. :bow :bow :clap
