yeah im sure its a 15t oem so adding one to the front is like taking 3 from the rear (the general consensus) so you will loose a bit of acceleration and gain top end speed - or more likely just reduce rpm for long motorway runs
i think its about 110 links but that is a number that just popped into my head so could be out
(i used to have a second set of sprockets just for my long runs on my old bike and it can make a suprising difference for motorway miles but im talking 300+ miles each way as cumbria to london and norfolk was very common for work)
edit - man drawer in shed????, isnt a shed a man zone and might get a womans drawer??

why did i not think to look at the pic that stares me in the face everytime i look at this post lol
yeah that is a hole hole not a drain hole - assuming you put the red circle in the right place and not trying to mess with our heads
bit of gun gum should solve a little problem there - no point paying a guy to weld up a hole on an exhaust that is hitting the end of its life
but as fazerider just pointed out - it aint your running issue as i have run with no pipe at all without a problem
(apart from deafness - I SAID APART FROM DEAFNESS)

when you say small hole at base of exhaust - do you have the factory exhaust on there and do you mean at the lowest/most forward part of the silencer - i think that one is meant to be there for drainage - i noticed that hole once i realized how fucked the insides were as i was getting a lot of escaping gasses through it

i find it brilliant how it instantly comes to buying a new part and not the free stuff first - its even possible to test the reg rec instead of just replacing it
ooh it had a battery drop it must be the reg rec broken - NO because the chances are the test was done top side of the battery terminals so a voltage drop can show from a bad earth or positive connection due to corrosion, or a bad connection on the reg rec connections that a a quick pull apart and clean could sort in seconds
maybe more people need to be skin flints first then waste money later lol

you did say earlier that you cleaned your air filter with compressed air
although it will look cleanish they never are as all the open cells fill with microscopic dirt that clings like a mutha and obstruct flow
always worth the £10 for a replacement if your in there (if you go K+N thats up to you but will set you back more)
looking at the pic i dont think thats a coilpack mod as the wire thickness still looks HT size - but they do look a bit different from a standard setup

I agree about it not being a real concern with very low mileages being done, and, to be honest I am not relying on the bike as everyday transport. (Summer Fun)
I clean my bike each time i ride it unless I'm going out on it again the following day, I do it to get the dead bodies off the screen, headlamps and fairing, the baked flies and bugs off the exhaust headers and radiator guard.
Don't say it! I know get a foccing life, but as Darrsi said in an earlier comment, half the fun of owning a bike is the fettling with it.
Well it is for me anyhoo 
not just fettling by the sounds of it, replacing fairings and dodging police because of all the people you have riden into hard enough for there lifeless bodys to stick to the fairing

still in garage after cleaning bike and giving the chain a clean -
hit it with pressure washer (divided opinions on such things)
gave it a spray with brake cleaner
sprayed again with jet wash (it was still out)
wd40 on chain
wheeled into garage as it was starting to rain then had a cuppa
coated nicely in rock oil chain lube (must have got it from ebay)
will wipe off the excess later before i go out to minimise fling

Tommy when you enter that shed the mrs ardin aint sleeping - she gets out her other lubrication device lol
after this weekends dirty ride (not mrs ardin) i too have a session of cleaning the bike and lubing up the spinning thing (that IS mrs ardin)
good old lubricant will do it fine (wont make a joke here)
taking your time to look after a bike is all part and parcel of ownership
similar to being married to mrs ardin
(tommy - i wrote this hoping you would see the funny side if she reads this i hope she thinks i am your alter ego and it is all you)

why would you want to use any kind of engine oil that has a high fling rate
half of what is involved in chain lube is its stiction so it doesnt just fling away on your first ride
good tin of chain lube about £10 and is made for the job and has no acidic property's like the old oil technique
really old motorbike chains in a hot oil can loosen them off but we dont do that for everyday chains.
give your chain a proper clean then a spray (another good point) then if excess give them a wipe on the surface
as for which is best - than is personal preferance as everyday riders will use more so want to spend less and do it more
i just did a video about a useless chain oiling tool and said scott oilers have there places but really are not needed so took mine off
proper cleaning and lubing is the best way to get the most life from your chain - there are no shortcuts - there was but we have already taken them

keyless ignition hold a little fob against a hidden device (behind a panel) and ignition comes on may sound a little show off but it increases security (no barrel to screwdriver) and it gets rid of that god awfull barrel from the headstock which gets in the way when you have gone naked or fork swapped https://motogadget.com/shop/de/m-lock-rfid-zundschloss.html?___from_store=en

do you have a button to press to disarm an alarm, an imobiliser for a fazer needs a button as we dont have transponder keys like modern cars do
i have a datatool alarm fitted which i have to figure out how to remove before i fit the motogadget basic and RFID unit

ok so definatly sounds fuel related start with taking the pipe off the fuel pump outlet and add a pipe to a jam/coffee jar or just hold a jar there
switch on ignition and see if fuel flows
yes fine = problem is after pump
no or slow = problem is before pump or with pump
before pump - i would look at the fuel filter first, maybe take the fuel pipe from the filter inlet and run it direct to the pump (if problem solved then its the filter so replace asap - DO NOT RUN AROUND FOR A WEEK WITHOUT A FUEL FILTER)
any idea when your filter was replaced last they are only about £8 on ebay so worth replacing anyway
-when the fuel pipe is disconnected from the filter just see what the flow is like direct from the tank if is seems a bit slow it could be a blocked prefilter but this isnt common unless you have a rusty tank - can sometime fix this by blowing up the fuel line but the problem will return so will need to empty the tank remove and give it a good flush (dont do this in winter as it will never dry again wait till summer so it can sit in the sun)
WARNING - the pipe leading from the pump to the carb remove from pump side - the plastic connection carb side is a bit brittle and can break easily - that little bit of plastic is £30, i found out the hard way
i would definatly try and get a dose of redex or preferably marvels mystery oil through the system as is can dislodge little bits that may be sticking but the chances of four float valves sticking at once is slim even in winter (i dont even have the carb heater hoses running through mine)
and darsi just posted a very good point about breather pipes - if thats the problem there are two outlets under the tank add a bit of hose and blow through them - no hose? just wrap you lips around it and blow (as i told the g/f last night) , you will know if its blocked

its another one of those tools i have been meaning to buy for ages but when i need one i find another way (cant wait for delivery)
and then i forget about buying one untill i next need one and the cycle repeats itself
getting 5 out of six easily out definatly says its worth having one for that job though considering the problems others are having

just wondering if anyone has had success using a manual impact driver on these
i.e the one you hit with a hammer not the 'Buzz gun'
as it is a hammer thump and a turn in one where a buzz gun is more just rotational whacks?
just a thought
