yes m8, it sounds like you have the AMPS, or VOLTS settings.

Normally you have Volts AC, and volts DC.

Only since Friday, but I was having alarm issues last week. The immobiliser actually came on whilst filtering between two cars at about 50mph.

So I did a lot of starting it up and having it cut out on me etc, on Thursday then rode it as normal on Friday and then haven't been on it due to not being at work. Would normally be on it 5 days commuting.

Buy a CBF125.

I believe MCN worked out if you rode a CBF125 as opposed to that Shiver 750 thing, you'd save like £6000 over 2 years on fuel insurance tax etc.

krhall, how long you're commute?
Do you get out for a proper run alot?

When I was doing 15-20 miles commute each was, had to optimate the bike every week, commuting short miles doesn't give the bike enough time to give the battery a good charge. Thats what I think was happening to mine, thought the battery was goosed, but it was just low.
