  1. Hi All,

    Just wanted to check if anyone experienced similar issues with MTS 1200 DVT.:?
    Cruise control is working fine in 3 gear and 30mph ... but if I shift up to 6 gear the display go only up to 5th gear... ( I am sure that the gearbox is at 6th gear):mad:o_O... Not only that the display stop showing the right gear I am in when going higher then 3th but the cruise control also stoped working :cold_sweat:.

    Apart of that everything is working correctly!!

  2. if I am reading your post correctly, why would you want to be in 5th or 6th gear doing 30mph???

    I don't think the bike will let you at that speed as it as it would be low to a void stalling

  3. No ..:p... I mean if I am in the 3th gear and cruise control is on 30mph it works correctly.

    Only if I go up in gears the display on my MTS Shows only up to 5th gear (display only) and the cruise control is not working
    then ..
    Sorry for my language I am European :laughing:

  4. Sounds to me like your GPI - Gear Position Indicator has started to fail. Easy swap, not so easy on the wallet. It’s located on the back of the gearbox

  7. Thank you For taking your time on this !!
    So you had a similar problem before ? Did your cruise control also not work in higher gears ?

  8. Mines a 2012 so I don’t have cruise control. The dash started lying about what gear I was in though! I changed it because when they really fail, it also affects the signal to ECU which can affect fuelling/running.

  16. Ah ha, recalibration you say, didn't know there is a calibration process, able to share mate?

  17. I would put money on it being faulty. The only special tool is a deep socket with a slot in it to enable you to avoid the cable. I made my own by grinding a slot in a Normal deep Socket.

  18. There are some adjustments that can be made but only by a dealer.
