Calling Steffan

Also there have been reports of losing the use of half the reserve ,as it isn't sucked out of the tank .
I don't know how true this is as mine still have thier pumps at the moment .
Even though they don't have engines .

[Steffan]

They have dodgy reserves even with the pump. The  best thing is to shorten the pipe in the fuel tap. I did mine and now I have about 15 -20 miles of reserve, don't ask how I know so exactly and no there was no more fuel in the tank, not a drop.

15 - 20 miles of reserve ?,
Last time I needed the reserve the engine died locking the back wheel up leaving a 10 foot skid to the side of the road ,
I was trying to turn the tap whist on the move not a good idea.
I could see the petrol station from where I was stopped a mile away at the most ,up hill of cause.
Re started only to run out a bikes length away from the petrol pump.

Made a nice change all the other bikes I've had would of insisted that I pushed them up the hill.
The XBR did it in the same place ......

The Triton never had a reserve worth thinking about - so it was great that the tank just came off with one elastic - carry it off to the nearest petrol station - oh and 5 gals lasted a while too.

If you decide you don't need it EBay it .
The XTZ 750,TDM and TRX use the same pump and there is one on EBay for £35.00 not including P&P.
It's probably top money..

But that's enough for a good ride out ..
