Ohhhhhhhhh........someone else to pinch a map from :D


Have you done the trimmed flies slappy?........did you have trouble getting the screws out.....any tips?

No I haven't done the flies, as to how best to remove them a little bit of heat and a perfectly fitting screwdriver is the way to go.
One of the things I have done to my FZ1 some people will find strange :), will list my  mods after I get map and power figures.

You mean pad pins?
They shouldn't need an impact driver at all, in fact i would avoid using one, steel pins in soft metal should come out easily by hand with an allen key.

Planning on balancing the carbs on the thou and possibly replacing the fuel filter (if I can find the one that I think I have somewhere :\). It's jumping / surging a little at low revs in the mornings when I'm riding to work

Might even get round to cleaning it up a bit before I get nagged on Sunday :P

Off to the Raven for breakfast. Get it all nice and warmed up then back to the garage. It went through 50,000 miles this week, so I'm going to treat "her" to a oil & filter change, new plugs, new air filter and a new pair of PR 2's.  :D
Might post some "finished" pics.
