Yup, I put DIESEL in the bike!!!!!!!!!!!!............how the hell did I manage that?! Now that was stupid!
The only lame excuse I can come up with is that I've not been able to ride for 5 weeks and we have a diesel car.
Fortunately this was realised quickly and I haven't started the bike so at least I've not got to strip and clean fuel injectors and oiled plugs...
BUT how do I clean out the tank?! (7 litres of diesel + whatever petrol was left in there, computer was showing 10 miles to empty)
Easy to remove the whole tank but even tipping upside down will not empty it completely because of the way the fuel filler neck is inset. Too difficult to strip the tank (remove filler neck assembly or fuel pump panel etc) and I can't see me getting it anywhere near empty by syphoning.
