  Focer Font of knowledge speaker power RMS and stuff
Posted by: fazersharp - 27-05-19, 07:33 PM - Forum: General - Replies (24)

I deed to replace a little sound system and the one I am looking to buy has a Speaker power 20 W (10 W + 10 W)
But I already have speakers in position and I upgraded the wire to 42/0.15mm 3x6mm (whatever that is )My worry is using the in-situ speakers with the new system as I do not know what my current speakers power is. Looking down the back in an air hole thing I can see printed on the speaker I think it says 5W 8 ohlms but that is only on the small speaker as the bigger one has not got a hole. They are small at  20 x18x13
The online manual says this
Use the speakers only with the recommended system.If not, you can cause damage to the amplifier andspeakers and can cause a fire. Consult an approvedservice personnel if damage occurs or if there is a sudden apparent change in performance
The spec for the new system speakers is --- Speaker power 20 W (10 W + 10 W)So would it be ok to use the in situ speakers or would I actually get a better sound with the new spec speakers.I do not have any info on the old system.

Great to see Scott Redding do the triple,he had to do the business in BSB after comments he made about it being a step to far down the ladder before signing for Paul Bird.When you come from Moto GP people think its going to be a walk in the park in a domestic series,it just goes to show you how competitive BSB really is,and what about Fores and Barbera? really on the pace,I thought this year was going to be a bit of a damp squib with everyone following the "works" ducatis but no way! cant wait for Brands. :woot

  Stuck exhaust studs...
Posted by: Grahamm - 25-05-19, 08:29 PM - Forum: General - Replies (10)

I've posted this on the FB group, but I thought I'd ask here too...

I'm having major hassles at the moment as I needed to replace the gasket at the bottom of the cat pipe on my FZ6 (2006) and decided I might as well replace the header bolts and studs since they were getting seriously manky.

Unfortunately, despite liberal spraying with Plusgas, tapping with a hammer and wedging two nuts together, I still can't get them to budge.

I went to B&Q and got myself a blow torch and some freeze spray, I've used more Plusgas, I've used the blow torch, I've used the freeze spray, but even with two nuts wedged together, the stud won't shift and I just end up unscrewing both nuts at the same time!

(And, yes, I cleaned the Plusgas off the stud before I put the nuts on!)

I've used a wire brush on a Dremel to clear as much rust off the base of the studs as I can and sprayed on more Plusgas, maybe they'll shift tomorrow...

Question: How long should I apply heat from the blowtorch? I've tried 30 seconds and then a minute, but I'm not sure how much effect it's having.
Anyone got any recommendations for how long I should use the torch without worrying about melting parts?

Maybe use what you nee and pass it on to another Focer.

  tyre plugs
Posted by: celticdog - 23-05-19, 11:04 PM - Forum: General - Replies (10)

Okay so the rear tyre gets a puncture, I only purchased it 3 months ago and it's probably done less than 1500 miles.  :'(
I've pulled a nail out of the tread and plugged it, clean puncture- easy fix with one of those kits. All's well as it's got me home safely.
Now the tyre pressures holding, What's the verdict? Should I get a new tyre asap or do I run it till it's ready for replacing? The bikes for commuting and as such I very rarely exceed 70 mph.

  Installing a GiPro X-Type Gear Indicator
Posted by: Bertie78 - 23-05-19, 12:25 PM - Forum: FZ6 / FZ6 Fazer - Replies (9)

Hi all,
I'm currently trying to install a GiPro gear indicator, and whilst I'm no idiot when it comes to wiring etc, I'm struggling with the instructions a bit. So the bit I'm struggling with is the "Crankshaft position sensor", mentioned in step 3a of the instructions (attached). Could anyone give me some pointers to identifying the necessary parts? A picture with red circles would be helpful. Smile


Tia.
