    Supermoto mode not staying on.

    When I put the bike into Supermoto mode it turns itself back to Road mode by itself some time later. It might be the next time I start the bike, or it might be after several times out riding. It's a nuisance and I don't know why it behaves as it does. Any ideas?

    Dash buttons hard to press

    Setting things on the dash is a real pain because the rubber layer over the buttons makes it very hard to press and hold. I've thought of pulling the thing apart and building up the buttons with some heat glue or something so they poke up under the rubber. However, I don't even know if the dash...

    Anyone put a USB socket on a 401?

    I've got a USB socket to wire into the new Svart on either the Acc1 or Acc2 connectors. I'm having difficulty finding a place near the handlebars to mount the socket. It's about 1 inch by 1 1/2 inch by half inch. I'd like it to be accessible for plugging in the phone cord but not obtrusive and...
