Yes, it's a nice looking bike, but it has a few mechanical issues I need to sort out. The main one at the moment is the 'effing Datatool S4 alarm keeps flattening the battery. As soon as I can work out how to get that pile of crap off it's going to meet "Mr 2lb lump hammer"! I'm fed up with having to disarm the bloody thing every 2 minutes while working on the bike.
Here's a 'How Too'
.
.
If your remote is like mine it has a triangle button. Press and hold with the alarm armed and you'll hear a long 'cheep' which means it's in 'service mode'.
You can then move the bike around to work on it. But be warned, you cannot turn on the ignition or the alarm will go off.
How you're supposed to work on the bike electrics I DK, it is a total pain in the *** and I'll eventually remove mine. I'm just scared of totally immobilising the bike

As I posted earlier, once the internal alarm battery is removed and they are disconnected from the 12V bike power supply, the alarm and immobiliser is then dead, no need to remove it, it just stops functioning. I’ve done this on my CBR900RR and no issues for over 2 years so I can confidently report that this method works.
Same principle with a house alarm, it’s the internal battery which keeps the alarm powered once disconnected, remove the alarm’s internal battery, disconnect the external power source and it’s completely dead.

I'll be doing this over the winter, along with a load of other work.
