It only took about 10-15 minutes to setup and program plus the time to remove the wheel and take the tyre off to get the sensor out then replacing sensor tyre and wheel.

It's a worry! The parts diagram shows an optional one. It looks a bit like a normal valve - may be the way to go later?

My rear one failed on a short ride today. Looks like I will have to get it replaced at the sametime I take the bike in for the rack replacement.

Well mine came up with this display yesterday. Anybody know for sure if it's covered by warranty?

My bike goes in on Monday to have it replaced under warranty. It's an 08 model but was purchased new about 2 months ago. Front one.

Thanks guys. I showed my local dealer today when I took it in for rear brake recall but as I didn't buy it there he (new service/parts manager) didn't
inspire me with confidence. I'll hafta check with him next week I suppose.

My front tyre battery went on way home from Albury.
See http://gtr1000.yuku.com/topic/4087 Now have new tyres being fitted this Thursday and he will try replacing battery then. Did not think about warranty but will now see how his fix goes and let you know. Usually batterys are not covered.

Mal they can't replace the battery that is the problem. They have to replace the whole unit.
Rob, it was only my front giving the message but they said that if the front was low then the rear would soon follow, they did both. |

Davo,
when that low battery warning comes up, does it stay on the screen and block any other info or does it intermittently flash up? Gav

It stays on screen until you do the press buttons thing to return to normal screen but the red light comes on. I found if I ride for 10 min then restart the
bike the warning won't come back on - until the next morning.

Davo
Probably my only real gripe with the bike is that "Low Fuel Warning" it does not help in the least.

Ken I will go as far as to say its just plain stupid. Right at the time you really need to know the fuel range you get that removed and the LOW FUEL flashing
warning.............. like we don't know.

My front tyre warning comes on when if it's cold. Bike has 8000ks. I'll ask for a warranty replacement when I get new tyres soon.

The rear sensor on mine did not work when I purchased the bike. It didn't have any flashing warning. Just would not come on. Reading for the rear just stayed on - - . They replaced the sensor under warranty. No problems since, so far. Fingers crossed. |

I had missed that, or forgotten which is probably what happened. That's good to know.
