Tyre problems have forced dramatic changes to Sunday's Australian Grand Prix where riders will have to change their bikes mid-race for the first time in MotoGP. Phillip Island's new tarmac saw defending MotoGP champion Jorge Lorenzo clock a record lap during qualifying to take pole on Saturday, but also contributed to excessive degradation to the Bridgestone tyres, stoking fears for riders' safety. Officials have shaved the race by a lap to 26 and ordered all riders to take a mandatory pitstop in an embarrassment for the tyre providers and organisers.
"We have been notified by Bridgestone that they are unable to guarantee safety of their rear slick tyres beyond 14 laps," Race Direction said in a statement. "This means that a bike/tyre change before lap 12 will require a second bike/tyre change to finish the race." While certain to annoy riders and their teams, the overhaul will add intrigue to the battle between Lorenzo and champion-in-waiting Marc Marquez,

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / lowering forks
« on: 21 October 2012, 09:07:44 pm »
Hi
Hypothetical question I have read and heard about dropping your forks 10mm through the yokes to help handling in corners
I was wondering would fitting either longer shock or shorter dog bones to raise the rear have the same result??
I ask this as seat height isn’t a problem for me and planning on sorting suspension over winter
Cheers  :)

FZS600 Fazer / carb question
« on: 15 September 2012, 12:03:13 am »
Hi
 Just removed carbs off Mrs 600 for cleaning as when bike is ticking over its not firing on number 3 cylinder guessing blocked pilot jet ( which there was )
My question is are there 3 jets inside float bowl or is one a blank ??
 with the carbs sat on bench on air box side down you have main jet in middle when removed can see needle
off to the right pilot jet  but above main jet theres another what i assumed was a jet but cant see any holes in it when removed which has stumped me  :rolleyes
 any ideas ???
 Cheers
