Hitchcocks Forum

Hi

Umm I'd like to say hello and share my experieces of my 2012 EFI Bullet so far.

Hello.

Well. It's doing pretty well. I've had it for 5 weeks now and put a decent 2.4k on the clock (Kilometers). Took it for its first service at 800 and was horrified to see the filings etc that came out with the oil, but Mr E assured me that was perfectly normal. God. He should be a GP. I felt much better.

So. Now it's running as smooth as a fried egg in a new Jamie Oliver Teflon pan.

I've been leaving it intentionally outside in the pouring rain whilst it's still under guarantee. Meh. Still sparks up 1st time every day. No sign of no electrical problems. Even starts 1st time with cats and dogs falling mercilessly every time.

So. I'm pretty happy. Some of the "PDI" left a lot to be required. Not saying the dealer. Black insulation tape hanging off, throttle control wheel totally dangerously bent. Yup. She's lost none of her Brit heritage.

Will report back.

Hey Lou, welcome to the forum and thanks for telling us about your new EFI. Interesting to know how the new bikes are turning out. Keep an eye on the chrome work in this weather. Getting on for 3K in five weeks shows serious dedication, or do you live abroad in some sunny clime? Keep us informed. cheers gwilly

great to hear your positive report Louis,most stories are poor finish stories i.e paint work these people obviously have never had a suzuki or yamaha,anyway enjoy it if you need any good testimony for the efi john moulton,s your man his woodsman is being seriously put through its paces.

Thanks Lads.
