Is there an echo in here?  ;)


Sorry about that both times I posted I got an error message and assumed it did not go, so I gave up. :\


Do you recall what the original rearset frame mount measurement is between centres?

Can you let me know what jetting changes you made to your carbs please?


Standard jets.

Great work. Those stainless headers do look a little disappointing, especially the spatter. I note you are looking to use a breathing set up similar to mine. I have tried two different headers similar to yours and both give a nasty hesitation at around 8-9k rpm with steady throttle. I know the power is ok and the jetting is giving good dyno curves. My bike will power through the hesitation band on full throttle without any problem, so I am thinking the issue is something to do with exhaust gas flow. The stainless headers I am using, like yours lack the internal sleeves and the link pipes, This may be significant. I shall be interested to hear how you get on.

Great work! Those headers do look a bit cheap especially the spatter. Also I have a couple of versions of those stainless headers and with both (and pods) I get a nasty hesitation at bout 8-9000 rpm at steady throttle. Power is good at 85+ bhp and the jetting etc seems ok on the dyno. The bike pulls through the hesitation band without fuss if you give it a handful. I think the design of the headers is important in this, the stainless ones are not sleeved down internally and lack the small balance pipes, and this I suspect, is leading to problems with exhaust gas flow. I shall be really interested to see how you get on with your exhaust/filter set up.

No, the bolts run just inside the inner edge of the caliper, the raised heads just clearing the ally caliper carrier by a mil or so.

Thanks for the response keratos :)


I have solved the issue, I have fitted a FZ1 speedo sensor (identical plug but normally sprocket cover mounted) to look at the rear disc bolts, a little experimentation found that 2mm thick washers under two of the 6 disc mounting bolts results in the speedo reading spot on when checked with GPS. Happy days!

FZS600 Fazer / 3 wire speed sensor
« on: 05 August 2014, 12:13:12 pm »
Does anyone know if I can use a different 3 wire speed sensor with OEM clocks? I was thinking I will have to custom mount the sensor head and probably change the plug to connect it to the Fazer loom. The bike cannot have the original wheel driven sensor due to the fitment of an R1 front end.


Thanks for any input here.

FZS600 Fazer / Speedo sensing with R1 front wheel
« on: 16 July 2014, 03:22:38 pm »
Hello,


I have just fitted a set of standard clocks to my FZS 600 based cafe racer, but have obviously now lost the drive from the front wheel. I have tried connecting a two wire (black/red) trail tech sensor to 2 of the 3 pins of the loom plug in variations without getting the speedo to read. Any ideas how I might get the speedo to work without the oem sensor??


Yours hopefully


MB :)
