13th was smooth... although i stuck in the yellow box for few minutes.... my front was outside the line, cant reverse... bike behind.... tot it was the end of the test...

 

getting use to the bike now... a big change from S4 to bird... stilll cannot fly, the wing at the side of the tank too small... now i'm crawling.. ha ha. The power was tremendous, a bit overkill for me... ha ha me slow rider....

 

cant join u all las night, stuck in the off, rush for deadline... till this morning, and continue till 4pm... now relaxing...

my 2nd key cannot off the FI light (and HISS too), could it mean the chip inside damage or its the wrong key?

 

can it be reprogramme (duplicate)? at boon siew? Thanks guys....

hmmm..... havent ganna this b4... maybe...

1. Damaged Chip

2.Unprogrammed chip

 

could be either one... go back to the shop which supply u the key and ask them to rectify the problem..

 

Good Luck..

 

[lightspeed]

done, but due to " good after sales service", bike sold as it is, as what they get from seller.

 

too bad it was noticed after they received the money. Expensive lesson for me.... and going to be bird out there please take note of this when you hunting for your bird, or any bike, and of course the 2nd hand one.

the 2nd key can open all the lock except HISS and FI which I believe relate to each other. so cannot start the engine.

Ohh I juz went to view it juz now.

Mileage is 61K

Lotsa hairline scratches all over the bike.

There's a dent at the rear of the right swingarm. (near the nut which holds yr wheel)

 

And most imptly, there's smthg which I'm not veru sure. Which I turn on the ignition, the digital speedo was at the 200+km point. But it decreases swiftly after a while.

Izit normal for a Blackbird to behave like dis? Coz I rem R1 and Gixxers don't.

Anyone care to enlighten me?

 

Last but not least, anyone got any lobang for a used Blackbird?

Looking for FT and above. No carb models pls.

Outlook splendid, like new.

Mileage only 19K
