Clock Adjustment

After 2 years and 50 weeks I think its about time I readjusted the clock to stop me arriving somewhere before I leave home
I have the book here.......................somewhere How do I adjust the clock and stop time travelling? (B1250)

Hi 2wheelsagain,
Here it is:
1. Push the "SEL" buton and the "ADJ" button simultaneously until the minute display blinks.
2. Adjust the minute display by pushing the "ADJ" button - you can hold it down if you need to speed up the process.

3. Push the "SEL" button to highlight the hour display.
4. Repeat step 2.
5. Push the "SEL" button to finish.

Had to do mine for daylight savings last week.

Thanks. As simple as that eh?
Mine has been on DST the whole time

Hmm. i must do mine too. thanks for the reminder

Wow your is accurate enough to bother re-setting, I reset mine and by the next day it is wrong, so much so my bike might as well not have one, I ignore it.

Seems like the speedos not the only thing that reads fast

But it doesn't add to the pissing contest at the pub

I don't know about the 1250's but on the 1200's you have to make sure that the odometer is displayed not the trip meter otherwise you just reset the trip meter.

Just wondering if anyone else has problems with their clock. I've reset mine twice so far but a week later it is out by hours. Could it be the battery?

Not if the battery is causing other issues. The clock would draw so little current that an almost flat battery would still power the clock.

Congrats on reviving an old thread though

Thanks 2wheels, I've been on a couple of less friendly forums in the past so have learnt to always search first...

I was thinking the same thing about the battery as it starts no problem and the headlight is fine before the engine starts.

Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

Have you disconnected the battery for any reason or taken the dash out and unplugged it? I am for ever doing both these things and in turn re-setting the clock after I have finished farkling about.

No I've done neither.

As a side note is the red light and CHCK supposed to be on when the key is off?

No, are you the first owner of the bike? Sounds like it has been played with. There should be nothing on the dash when the key is off.

Sorry I explained that wrong, key is on but engine is off.

Red light yes, if the kill switch is off or the bike in gear the CHK will also show up.

So that is fine, I just can't keep the right time....

Your red temp light should come on, then drop out, 
your red oil light should stay on as should the  orange FI light & ABS light (if ABS model) 
The dash disply should say GSF, then it should drop out to show speed (0), 
the CHCK shouldn't be on

 That's right, my post was kill switch in run position, in neutral, ignition on, engine off

You may need to speak with a dealer/service agent about the clock not keeping time. The only other thing I can think of, but unlikely, is a dodgy wire from the back of the dash?

Thanks guys, not too worried about the clock but might have to look into the CHK on the screen.

Will check tonight when at home.

Chk is on mine when I turn key and it's in first gear.

If it keeps doing it , & it's in neutral , your gear position sensor switch may be a bit dicky 
( My chk sign came on when mine first started playing up )

Only when the ign is on and the bike not started. When you say key do you mean the kill switch ?

Edit..sorry forgot the 2nd page..carry on...
