They are abit light alright, but now that I think about it it shouldn't have happened at all as my chest was sitting on the tank( was fairly ripping it, it was the last straight on the was home and was my first chance to test for dead spots in the high rev range. Ah wel could have been alot worse, another thing learned I surpose,

Have to go for a longer spin tomorrow for the auld 25th birthday, getting old lol

Don't beat urself up dude, there's no way you could have know

I'v never even felt the front go light before, scared the shite out of me at the start, just wasn't expecting a Moto cross style jump out of a Fazer.

As scary as it was and dangerous I still had to laugh at the look on the face of the person walking on the road

Was just taking a nice spin today and going up a hill that I'v gone up manys a time, just this time i did it at speed, didn't think I was going that fast but I felt the front wheel go light but didn't realise what I had done until the back wheel hit the ground and the front was still up, just let off the trottle and the front came down but not overly hard, lucky I surpose, I didn't tense up as I didn't even know it was happening, just 2 seconds of airtime @ 90mph isn't something I would like to experience again,

This happen to many??

It is yea, yea I did see that thread, lol I just read my old post on that thread where I was already giving out about my boots hitting the road hahha, seems jacking up helped a few out on this. Although I wasn't overly fond of what this done to my cousins bike and the way it handled but it might have just been set up wrong, still didn't give me massive clearance as I think I showed a picture of the cousins back tyre and how far I was over, didn't go over anymore for a number of reasons but boot scraping the ground was one of them


Hmm seems like I'm not the only one ( sigh of relief, my riding style was not challenged, lol)

How much did he sell them for? I wouldn't mind them but I wouldn't pay near £400 for them, but they do sound like a good job, few breakers might have them on couple of sports bikes but what's the chances that I find maybe an old r1 with them.... Anyone know if the distance between the peg bolts are the same on any other yam???

Has anyone looked at replacement pegs? I'm only riding awhile but I'm starting to feel the pegs abit goofy when I'm going through consecutive tight turns, I'm not saying I'm racing the thing but doing the speed limit and I do find I shift myself on the seat( yes I have watched hundreds of vids on how to corner and hang off properly and even MCN's version..... )And I'm not knee down or anything mad,

Maybe it's just me but I just find alot of movement in them( and yes I have tightened the bolt) its the vertical movements and the rubber. Don't get me wrong bumpy roads and long spins there great!

Right? Which size do I order? Thanks packie, let me know what he says. Lol no just the 4 rivets of the plastics under the handlebars. How much do ya think he might look for the chain and sprockets?

Wel those carbs should run better I surpose

If he would do a deal all the better, can't afford much these days, the problem is the carbs the other prick got we're set right but for a bike with standard pipes, I have racing pipes(apparently) and the back pressure is different, that's where I was loosing between 1-5, I raised the needles since and it works but not 100% and bogs abit at 7k.

Do you have a direct number for him or just email? We're Ur carbs jetted for the new down pipes? Will also prob get the chain if he does a good deal.

Also, does your fairings have the same plastic rivets as the box eye???? I need three rivets now

How many do you need? I might have one or 2 old ones lying around,

Yea thanks guys, I did oil it, brought it for a spin to warm up chain abit first, hoody is nice but that's not me, that's mick haha, I know it's a disaster the rain, but worse is the shed I keep the bike it, even with a cover the dust from the clay floor distroys everything, it's just a garden shed but big enough for 2 cars the bike, ride on lawn mower and a trailer. Just dust from the dog and everyone walking ruins it

Just front? Or back aswel, if just front you could probably do a job like cousins bike but u will need a metal frame new headlights and possibly if I was doing it change the speedo, amongst other electrical problem of hooking up new lights, my cousin now has a prob where wires are touch and causing a short which he blames me for but I'm not gona get into that now lol

Hope this helps

What size are the locknuts again? Need 2 today
