I have a 2003 Suzuki TL1000R. It was running fine, then I stopped for gas. When I tried to start it, it would only turn over slowly, but would not fire, and the little F1 light came on. Help??

Open your rear seat and you'll see a black cap covering a connector/harness on the left side of the seat. If you take the cap off, you'll see it appears to be a normal harness. With your key in the ignition and bike turned to "on" (but not running), take a paperclip and short the two connectors out (by touching the two contacts together). This is known as a "ghetto dealer mode switch". It should display the error code on your display instead of just FI now.

Can my suzuki tl1000r start slipping because i change the oil with car oil instead of the motorcycle oil?

Yes it will wreck your clutch plates and you will need to replace them and flush the engine clean of the car oil as the anti friction additives in the oil attack the plates and they break down into little bits

Remove the gas cap, to equalize the air-pressure.
The partial vacuum (no air got in to replace the gasoline that has been pumped out) leads to the lack of gas reaching the engine.
Works for my 2002 Taurus.
