When fuelling, in spite of following info in manual about keeping level well below top, fuel is overflowing from overfill pipe.

I am putting plastic plug in pipe when I refuel, but is this likely to cause any other knock on effects.?

I am struggling to get 85 mile before fuel light comes on ( running in, so not nailing it). How far can I go on warning light?

I can't help you with the fuel thing, but welcome to

Hi! Bing from Australia dropping in to have a look. I currently ride a 2000 900IE Monster with a fair bit of modification. Love the Monster and am currently on a project to make mine as light as I can (within financial reason!). Look forward to the UK perspective
