Cookstown 100 NOT on ITV but BBC1 N.I. tomorrow night at 10.40. I think BBC NI are also showing North West 200 highlights this coming Fri., Sun. & Mon.

According to the FZ1-S/ FZ1-SA owner's manual " The shock absorber assembly is equiped with a spring preload adjusting ring and a rebound damping force adjusting screw." Preload is on the top of the spring and the rebound damper screw is below the spring (there is no compression damping adjuster).
Probably wrong but I can't think of any reason why you can't fit the shock upside down though- Ducati have the shock almost horizontal. It may even run cooler with the damping further away from the exhaust...

Looks a lot like the PZracing gear indicator which is also made in Italy. Don't know what a DLC port is but if its the same as the wiring for the PZR it is true plug & play only £30 cheaper!

Thought it was too good to be true.

Yep, learned my lesson and now I spray it into the cap and paint it on with a brush. Just love that smell though and the fact that you can see exactly where you've applied it.

As far as I remember the rear most fittings go on the indicator brackets and the indicators have to be relocated on the rack. I think you can fit the side frames with a tail tidy though.
Rob

Just been and checked. The pannier frames attach at the indicator points, the rack doesn't. So you can fit the rack with your tailtidy but not the pannier frames.
Whatever though you will need to cut the under tray to fit the big bracket that attaches to the rear sub frame.
Rob

In the instructions it does say that if there is a tight spot you should use that point to set the slack. I must admit I still double check with a steel rule.
Mine was a well meant xmas pressie so I can't complain.
Rob

If it is the fuel tank breather pipe it should have a white band round it that lines up with the bracket. If not someone's maybe swapped the airbox breather and the tank breather?? AFAIK the airbox breather exits by the gearbox sprocket cover.
If you use s/s braided hose you might want to protect anything it might rub against.

To quote Britney:" whoops I've done it again........"

Whoops

Don't know if they're rebuildable or not but wouldn't have thought so. I guess if they're sealed for life that means 43k !!

Great idea......You got the item number for the hex bar.........Ta

No number/grade for the hex bar, just a nice free cutting s/s.
