    never use it. i'll check though, i would have to kill myself in a
    japanese gameshow stylee.
    fuel injected. the chip has been doing weird things recently though, like
    intermittently refusing to rev to more than 7k in top gear (but fine in
    other gears).

    if there is a fuel tap it must be pretty well hidden.

    having you tried twatting the ECU? That always used to work on the
    only Italian-assembled bike I've ever owned.

    has it got petrol in it?

    There's a killswitch, but IIRC it won't turn over if it's off.

    oh, OK.

    I'll go with my "there's no petrol in it" guess, then.

    sorry, you just went a bit too technical for me there.
    full tank.

    Very useful after an oil change to ensure a full oil filter before
    there is any chance of the motor bursting in to life.

    But I am used to it - add Voxan to the list.

    Surely most do? That's why it's so funny to flick the kill switch on
    peoples' bikes.

    Heh. I remember the slightly puzzled look on your face when you flicked
    the (non-functional) kill switch on the BlingMobile and it refused to
    die.
