Fitted my K&N air filter today - fits a treat - airbox bolts up no problems ..... just saying
Yamaha never fitted a centre stand the the N, I don't think one fits, I believe the rear end is different for the as well
Sure looks the dogs balls ill give it that![]()
But whenever i consider a flip lid i think well why dont i just get a cool looking open face and some cool goggles because i wouldnt trust the flip part in a crash and if anything....right or wrong i can see the flip part jarring, carching, disintegrating and turning into lots of spikey bits right near my face and neck.
Sorry slappy....thats really morbid...just my thoughts......im a cheerful foccer![]()
Edit...oops sorry mike....not trying to make you paranoid mate

Thinking about buying one, has anyone used/got one and if so are they any good?
Tried the Sargent seat and Yamaha Gel seat but thought both were mince.
Eventually bought a seat customised by Tony Archer and it is fantastic.
I have dealt with Tony personally a few years ago for a seat for another bike and he provides a quality product but it does take some time for him to provide the finished article.
"The noise it makes" ?
Reconnected my AIS god i have missed it![]()

I had exactly the same ticking on mine which developed at a similar mileage.
It was due to an excessive valve clearance on the far right inlet valve, just next to the camchain![]()
I set all the clearances to within spec & the ticking was no more.
Edit: On a general note, valve clearances can tick & worn chains rattle.
Anyone else changed the tensioner and still get the ticking??
Short answer - no. What's the year and mileage?
Worn EXUP bushes and loose EXUP cables can cause ticking sounds. Locating noises is never a precise sport.
If you tighten the manual tensioner a touch, does the ticking go away ... maybe change to a whirring sound (which means too tight, BTW)?
I'd be taking it back to the garage that sold you a manual tensioner as a cure but seemingly didn't fit it right or didn't correctly diagnose the original fault.
I used to get a tick from my FZ1...at low speeds...like a speedo connector...or a cable tie flicking on the wheel........i remember a few of the FZ1 guys at the time saying that it was fairly common so i suppose normal.....it never affected anything.........funnily enough its only now that ive remembered as i dont think it had it for a while so i can only assume it was actually something to do with one of the systems that i modded, ais, air filter, k and n, pc5 who knows really....i wouldnt worry about it.
