Air Cooled or LC, air cooled 250s much cheaper than 400s and the same for LCs with the 350s, prices have gone a little mad recently for air cooled though, pop over to the Aircooled RD club site for more on these http://www.aircooledrdclub.com/

No shit Sherlock, about 15k of lanes that the tarmac parts were about a cars tyre width wide, next time you talk about your DRZ before we head off remind me to head the other way
Still picking bits of twigs and leaves from my bike now.

OK Friday lunchtime decision it is then,
Just checked the BBC weather page again and the forecast has changed again, earlier it was light showers most of Saturday and none Sunday, now its showers around 10am only on Saturday and showers from 10am to 4pm Sunday

Dragged my son's 2006 RMZ250 out of my lock-up into my garage to sort it out before I go an embarrass myself at a local motocross practice track in a couple of weeks time.
had to swap places with my fazer so she now sits in the lock-up with about 3 u-locks and multiple chains and padlocks securing her

Every time I look at the BBC weather, the forecast is different, I'm OK to leave the decision till Friday but understand if people have to make decision earlier.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: Fan kicks in extremely late!
« on: 17 June 2016, 02:33:47 pm »
I can't remember where in relation to the thermostat hot side the Temperature sensor is but it sounds like that either the Thermostat is not opening or there is a massive air lock in the system preventing hot coolant getting to the temperature sensor and thus the reason the fan is not kicking in is it is relying on surrounding parts getting hot and not the flow of hot coolant over it.
Worst case scenario is water pump failure, thus not pumping hot coolant around the system and past the temperature sensor.

Finished fitting the R1 radial Brembo front master cylinder immediately feels better at the lever, balanced carbs and re-set TPS bike has a much smoother pick-up and lost some buzziness I'd been experiencing.
Just needs a clean and I'm ready for my tour of Scotland next week.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: S1000R test ride
« on: 09 May 2016, 10:36:14 am »
Test rode one about two years ago, full power, was mental 
but unbelievably easy to ride, decided it was too focused on removing my licence from my wallet but def on the list for my dream garage.
Remember getting on my Gen1, with early R1 forks(about a 2 inch frt end drop), and thought I was on an adventure bike that steered like an ocean liner
