I'm going to be balancing my carbs soon but am a bit confused about something.
 
The Haynes manual and workshop manual both tell me to adjust the idle speed the adjuster but neither mention the throttle position sensor (TPS) in pointer2nulls guide.
 
The question is, do I adjust both, one or neither?

Just bought some new binoculars for £300 for a trip to the coast at weekend,
 
So far as I can see they're good value.

I've been meaning to mention this for a while. I noticed a hole in my Motad stainless downpipes after about 6 months use so contacted Motad. The first guy I spoke to wanted the old pipes back for repair, which I thought was reasonable, but he went on holiday. The person who took over sent me out a new set without getting the old ones back, so I could stay on the road, and arranged for the old set to be collected at a time convenient for me. They even supplied replacement gaskets.
 
I was taken aback by how quickly and professionally they resolved it, it was all sorted in about 2 weeks and I didn't even have to chase them up or argue my case.
 
Very refreshing and will definitely use them in the future 

On the way home last night I think I saw a biker wearing what looked like a Hans device for motorcyclists, has anyone else seen these before or have I just drawn (probably unwanted) attention to a disabled rider?

I'm going to fit some LED indicators to my FZS600, they're rated at 2 watt each.
 
What rating resistor do I need?
Do I need a resistor for each indicator or can I run both indicators a single resistor?

I've been having an interesting discussion with someone on facebook regarding St. Patrick's day and it got me thinking about nationality. As there is a large geographic spread on here I was wondering what people from each of the respective nations think,
 
If you are born in England/Scotland/Wales are you English/Scottish/Welsh or British?
 
This thread isn't intended to be a platform for the type of racism it could easily degenerate into, I was just wondering how the home nations view their relationship with British nationality.
I personally see myself as English before British but in the same respect I see myself a Yorkshireman before an Englishman.

Bought the wrong one for my FZS600, I know it fits but didn't wanna push the caliper round so got the shorter one.
 
Just want my money back and don't wanna go through ebay
 
£10 + postage

Looks like my fork seals have finally given up so I've got plenty to do at weekend now.
 
I've read pointer2nulls guide on the old site, is there anything else I should look out for that isn't mentioned?

I know I need these parts:
 
dust seal x2
oil seal x2
retaining clip x2
inner bush x2
outer bush x2
fork oil x1 L
 
I'm thinking of doing the bushes at the same time but am having trouble sourcing some. Does anyone know where I can get some individually or as part of an overhaul kit with all the other seals?

I'm thinking of switching to bar end mirrors on my FZS600, I've had a quick look on line but can't find any blanking plates.
 
Does anyone know were I can find a set?
Also any thoughts on bar end mirrors? These caught my eye as you can tuck them away when you park up:

...that thinks it's a bit odd Fazer isn't in the forum dictionary but Yamaha is?

I've done the headlight mod on my boxeye and am concerned that I might be dazzling people. Is there anything I can do to the alignment or should not bother and be glad I'll be more visible?
