Few questions after 1 day of riding
So after 1 day of riding my new striple, I have a few questions:
1- Where do I put the owners manual? Its in that nice plastic cover to protect from the elements I assume, and under the seat theres a spot to put what looks like an owners manual. But it doesn't fit in there right. It bulges out and I'm afraid it'd sit on the battery and cause trouble.
2- My MPG is reading about 50-60 MPG on average when taking it easy. Am I reading it correctly and is that what I'll be expecting?? If so- thats freaken awesome being that I'll be doing daily commuting. I was reading only about 40-50 mpg from many people here, but I'm assuming thats after I break it in and I can't lay off the throttle.
3- How well are the tires in the rain?
4- The Datatool alarm has an option to integrate my key with the fob/remote. I had a third key that didn't have the little knob on it for some reason, so I tried to integrate it into there. Well, it was pretty easy by just popping open the remote and screwing it in- but our keys are too thin for the remote. Is there some sort of plastic filler or something I can order from Triumph/Datatool so it fits in there properly? Also, I was reading in the manual that its possible to use a pager with the Datatool. I couldn't find anything about it on their site... anyone know??
5- Although I don't want to think of this- I live in an apartment complex. At night, I park my bike in a parking space and then block it in with my car. Both vehicles have excruciatingly annoying/loud alarms. Once I get the disc lock for the bike this week, short of someone towing out my car and lifting the bike out- is there a way someone can get it out?
