Had he first annual service done on Saturday
told the tech dude that the heated grips were shocking
the quickshift both up and down felt jerky and it was much smoother using the clutch
and that the dynamic brake light didnt seem to be working no matter how hard I hit the brakes!!
His replies were as follows
The heated grips on the XRs is a bit of a compromise to be honest as its a sports bike, i replied so sport bike riders dont get cold hands then ??
he reset and re learned the quickshifter ??
and told me that the dynamic brake light is working and turned on but its impossible to get it to work falsely no matter how hard you brake as it only does its flashy thing in an emergency !! how does the bike know its a fekking emergency ive got both brakes pinned with the ABS working on both wheels from 60 to 0 in about 18 feet with the son in law checking the back light and almost ramming me right up the top box now if thats not an emergency stop then im bollocksd
anyway £201.56 later I was off and the quickshift does work better LOL

Mind you, the fluid on my 1190 was pretty much black by it's first annual service - didn't change it until the second one though......it'll be interesting to see how it goes from now on as it was quite discoloured from new
