Possibly dumb question

[moto873]

I noticed the little button to the right of the lowbeam switch is stuck in. The salesman told me it's not a real button and nothing to be concerned with, is that true? What's it for?

Thanks,
Graham

Also did you guys get an owners manual with yours?

European FZ8 have a switch for hazard warning lights at this place.

All the FZ8 models have a bottom there. It is for turning on all the blinkers.

Yea..all have it..states don't have hazards on ours...just a spot for all the lucky other countries...they get abs too

Like others stated above it is a dumby button for US bikes. It is a good place to put in another button or switch for say a garage door opener or grip heaters, etc. Check under your seats for your manual.

Hmm I'll have to find a button to put in their for my grips and phone charger I plan to install. Do you know if anybody on the forum has done this?

I've fine the grip heater mood. Very painful, but worth every second.

Push and hold for 3 seconds, turn bike on, rev to 12000 and hold for 3 seconds, flick ignition off. Your bike now has 180hp!
