Hi all

Searching this issue, I though it was an old problem now resolved, but my case sounds like so many others.

Brand new bike, 165miles on the clock over three days riding. 25 miles into a ride on a hot day, welcome to the Kangaroo.

Only bought the little sod of a bike for great mpg and Honda reliability!

Fail 1 on Honda reliability. MPG is great though. It's done miles now without using a drop of fuel! In the back of a recovery truck Mad

Been with dealer 3 days now and not even a phone call from them Rolling Eyes

this might help, quite a few comments about faulty fuel pumps and the same symptoms as you. I bought a spare fuel pump when I had mine but it was the 09 model which didn't seem to suffer from this as much.

Cheers. found that one.

I'm just surprised it still seems to be an issue, although not many posts on the topic beyond 2011, 2013.

Honda are obviously playing the numbers game. Low enough for them not to do anything about it, but high enough to p*ss me off.
