nik68 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Hi guys A strange thing happened to me this morning... All of a sudden the total clock (km) counter reset to 0. It is like i bought the bike today.... Is there a way to fix/recover back the kms on the clock? Any help would be much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspanglish Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Game over!!I doubt there's an easy / inexpensive way to get the real mileage back up. Usually people pay hackers to reduce the miles ... not the other way around. I believe I have heard of one guy in the UK but there must be at least several in every modern first world country. Only thing is that it is essentially illegal, although your case is very honorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegaquark Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Maybe the eeprom erased for some reason.You can buy a eeprom programmer, but is not an easy task to perform... Hexadecimal edition sounds familiar to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegaquark Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 If you wish to start doing that this is a good starting point :) http://s.aliexpress.com/2YziYVRF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nik68 Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 Thank you guys, but nothing sounds familiar to me. Hope that there is nothing else wrong with the bike. The only thing i know is that i have a ...brand new 1998 vfr with 0 km on the counter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Forbes Posted April 15, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted April 15, 2017 Hope it's not a case of brain dead joke...Guys trying to sell his high mileage car unsuccessfully, his mate tells him he needs to give it a 'haircut'....he does so, but said friend see's him with the same car weeks later and enquires if he still couldn't sell it? Said brain dead friend reply's "no it's got low mileage I decided to keep it" Sent from my HTC_PN071 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer KevCarver Posted April 15, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted April 15, 2017 I don't have any suggestions, but I'm curious if it started counting up again or staying on 0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Terry Posted April 16, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted April 16, 2017 20 minutes to ride 7km??? You do know how the throttle works don't you??? Congratulations on having the lowest mileage 5th gen in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegaquark Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Maybe the xenon ballast interfered on the eeprom... Check that out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
