I love mine when it works that’s just carbs for you I guess. I’m going keep mine for another year get some use and maybe move up but yeah love the sound 🤙🏻
Nice man! It’s a solid bike but not very forgiving if you aren’t carful. So have you got your full license, is that why you are doing your cbt to do the mod 1 and 2?
@@Revitgeorge no , Direct A ibt , I intend to take it very easy , and plenty of empty car park practice ,plus a few sets of crash bars. It's a heavy bike .
These are twitchy at low revs because of the secondary throttle butterflies. Mine was terrible until I removed them, since then it's been very smooth and gained some top end. The valves must open and close while you're on part throttle and combined with the efi system shutting off fuel at closed throttle it makes the 1250 really dicey when you're trying to get around a wet roundabout.
Don't do it man. They say never meet your hero. Mine was always an iron 883. They are so lumpy it's unreal, they peak out at mid range the fuel economy is absolutely disgusting and when you come to a stop they are just horrible rattling and vibrating etc. I'm also a UK lad, cornwall to be precise and if you wanna ride it more than once a month don't do it. I learnt a 11 thousand pound lesson, and then was only able to sell for 9

Had my gsf1250 stolen and burnt in Leicester. Carole Nash underwriters Marker Study given me £75 and £50 compensation for incompetence and lying and feck off 💊 for my 3G bike 😑

From memory because it wasn’t mine you are right it was. Helps train you for a steady wrist haha
Or just get a proper woolich tune and command the butterflies open and adjust fueling..
You had a new bike mate. Ain’t that the 1250 not the 1200 mate as I have the 650 and it’s same dash
Mate you are right haha I messed that up! It’s not mine just the mechanic let me borrow it for the toy run in stoke. Happy new year to you too bro 😎
@@Revitgeorge you have a very nice mechanic there then mate. 600 still not running right mate
@@banditbeggers533 he’s a nice lad they all are just dead busy and just don’t know what’s up with it 🤷🏻♂️😒
@@Revitgeorge yer they seem like it mate. Where is it mate. Do you no where is best to get a rear tire for my 650
@@Revitgeorge sorry to hear about your bike mate hope you sort it soon
That was my bike b4 Alex bought it off me did many thousands of miles on her
No way what a small world! It runs so smooth still after 40k+ miles shame it’s not mine 😩
How fast is the 1250
It’s fast low and top end just a mint bike but very smooth if you want it to be. I found it easier to ride than my 600 haha

@@uuelhempkin8640 I’m sorry to say it bro but I wouldn’t I’m not sure if I ever would have a Harley just with what people have told me
