Hi Foccers
I had me carbs out recently to fix a BOGGING DOWN problem... cleaned all and put pilot screws to factory setting.
engine is running OK now but a bit ROUGH..
so decided to balance the carbs....I found 1 and 2 so far out that no matter how much i adjusted 1 was still pulling more than 2...
so where do i start with this DILEMMA... :o :rollin :\

VG Condition ( no grubby paw marks on it)
Haynes Manual 3702 with colour sections.
Cover YZF600R Thundercat 96-00
FZS600 Fazer 98-00

Morning all, I've searched this but still not sure.


I'm after an Ivan's jet kit but not 100% sure which one to go for. I have a pipercross filter and an akrapovic can fitted already but not sure which kit to go for.


What's people's personal preference to the kits?


Cheers

I have an 04 FZ1 with 19k miles, it starts OK 75% of the time, but sometimes it's a bit hesitant.

On a coupe of occasions, it failed to start at all and drained the battery, when I put it on charge, it started first time.

When it's hesitant, it usually takes two or three attempts to start, and I have to let the engine idle for a couple of mins until it settles. Sometimes it just fires up first time and is good to go straight away.

When it's been standing at work on a hot day, it starts, but it take a lot of cranking.

When it's cold, I use about 3/4 choke, when the weather is hot and the bike is cold, I use about 1/4 choke.

Is there a mod that will make starting consistent?

Hi All,
new here.
I have just removed the Meta M357T-V2 from my FZS1000 '05 and got safely as far as I could.  What I didn't realise was that I could bugger it up further by trying to find the right links for the ignition circuits.
I seem to have gone from a fully functional bike apart from the dead-battery alarm, (now removed) to one that is screwed.
The neutral light is not functioning, and the spring in the starter button has changed and has significantly less resistance.  I blew the signals 20A fuse when using trial and error to find the right links.
Someone here suggested that it could be the fuel pump, relay but I don't know what's really happened.  Any help out there?
Cheers,

I have let one of my NC31 CB400s stand for too long and it starts but won't stay running - a classic case of gummed carbs methinks. I have removed the carbs and am looking for someone to ultrasonically clean and service them, any recommendations please?

Hi, I'm going to get my fuel tank sprayed mildly custom does anyone know of a good spray shop , thanks

Hi all hoping for some info please since owning the bike it seems to have a very heavy clutch, so today I have replaced the friction plates and pressure plate springs for OEM also over the winter i converted the bike to a cafe racer so all cables are new and oiled. Whilst replacing the friction plates i did notice the steel plates are blueing so do need replacing however would this cause a heavy clutch??


Cheers
