you have to be in the correct mode on the speedo for it to show if i remember correctly its 3rd press but just try them all til it shows co- .It it doesnt then maybe a bad connection on jumper wire ,faulty speedo ,or maybe faulty ecu.

I just tried and with different cable and nothing happened.The indication doesn't appear.I changed the indications on the tacho but tn none of them did I see the -C00
I wanted to check with a multimeter but the cables on the ecu are well insulated and couldn't connect to get a reading.
I guess I'll take it to the suzuki dealer to do the tps and the tbs.

Cant help with the TPS never done it on a FI bike.

High Fuel consumption
a few things affect this,
bad fuelling , dragging brakes, bad chain, over tight chain, travelling at over 100mph, combination of all or some.,



Modern fuels give funny plug readings, old haynes type pics of clean running no longer apply.
Stay calm.

something in the dim and distant past makes me think this may have only been a function available on the 1000 and not the 650 but am happy to be proved wrong.........................................

Since the sv 650 has such a function shouldn't the raptor 650 also have it?
Then how is the TPS adjusted?

I checked the sv manual but doesn't write about the tps voltage method.only by using the tacho.
I found a youtube video although

Are the voltages standard?I mean,should I adjust mine at 1,13 also as he mentions?

When travelling on the highway with 140 kms/hour i get the orange light after about 180-190 kms. In the city i see maybe 220-230 kms before the orange light.
Once, on a rather hasty trip i saw it after 155kms.
It's all greek to me....

At city conditions I get 200km's before the light.

i think the 1000 is 1.125v at tickover so not far away and would have thought they would be the same(but no guarantee)

I went to a suzuki dealer.I told him to check it because my spark plugs were black and I'll go later to plug the adaptor to check the injection and reset it.
