Hi All,

I ordered the factory workshop manual and audible flasher warning last Friday. Congrats to our hosts delivered today. The manual is pretty good and confirms my suspicion that the auto decompressor is necessary to relieve load on the electric starter. Not having had an ES Bullet before, it was interesting to see that there're two gears between the starter and the Sprag. I feel a lot more confident now I know what's going on inside the machine. I also learnt that the EFI has a trochoid type oil pump delivering 4.5 l/min at 4.5 bar. Wow.

No rely from the dealer yet about my complaint about unauthorised modifications, but I need give up.

Cheers TrevorCH

Hi
Somewere on the web is a vid. clip, showing the gearbox of an efi bike, cut open, but sealed with a transparant cover. It shows the engine running at various RPM's, and the amount of oil being pumped arround the gear box.
As it was descibed to me-"theres more oil being pumped, than on the Texas oilfields".
It gives confidance regarding the EFI Lub system.
Cheers.
