Need some views/advice please:
My Gen 2 has done 48,000 miles commuting and the clutch cable was quite stretched, so bought what was described as a super slippery one from Wemoto. Eventually changed the cable after being a bit ditzy (think I was tired – see earlier post) and although the new cable was a lot smoother out of the bike compared to the new one the actuation on the lever is still reasonably stiff compared to say my mates ’04 R1.

Cable route seems ok etc as per the old one that came out.

Any ideas or solutions please – I tend to ride using 2 fingers for each lever and also slip the clutch as I’m also used to riding 2 strokes off road (ok these have hydraulic clutches)...
A bit lower force would be good to have and my finger joints might last a bit longer!

So it seems to be a thing! After hearing a noise, I removed the front sprocket cover to find the nut just sitting loose on the end of the shaft, not a hint of thread left in it. I bought a new nut from the dealers and came on here looking for a torque figure for it, turns out its a common fault and that most people, including Yamaha, know about an upgrade to a wider nut.


So how come my dealer in Carshalton sold me a 9mm nut and claim no knowledge of any other part, the dealer in Twickenham also claims ignorance, and even Yamaha UK say there is only one part number suitable for a my bike and that's for the 9mm nut I've been given?


Despite all the related threads on here I couldn't find a part number mentioned for the 12mm nut, is it a genuine Yamaha part?

Looking at selling my 2007 ZX10R , thought I'd put up on here to see if there's any interest. High level summary is that its a cracking bike (bloody fast and handles fantastically) but I'm just not getting a chance to use it so would rather free up some cash to go towards doing up the house and see it go to a good home than let it sit for months in the garage!


High level info:
- 2007 plate, D7F (no generator issues on this model)
- circa 25k miles
- Partial service history. Serviced before I bought it at circa 23k miles, I've since done a full standard service (adjustment, oil, oil filter, air filter, coolant, spark plugs, brake fluid etc).
- Black
- Excellent tyres, Michelin Pilot Power 3 with <500miles
- Good chain and sprockets - O.E front, heavy duty gold chain and supersprox rear fitted circa 3k miles ago (when I bought bike)


Modifications are as follows:
- R&G crash protection (crash bungs, rad guard, bobbins, bar end protectors)
- Akrapovic end cans and Power Commander V (circa 165hp at rear wheel). Also have a decat mid pipe to go on I'll throw in which basically turns the exhaust into a race system (most restriction in this model is in the mid pipe with the headers of good quality). All bits needed to run without error message (02 blanking plugs, servo motor removal kit etc.) fitted
- Carbon engine casings/protectors
- Carbon mudguard, chainguard
- Heated grips (Oxford sports)
- Rear seat cowl (pillion seat included)
- Gear indicator
- Nissin brake calipers & braided lines (no fading issues as can happen with standard Tokicos)
- Scottoiler


In this state I'm looking for offers of around low-mid £4ks.


Have also a number of other mods that were fitted that I'd be happy to refit at an agreed cost including:
- Brembo RCS master cylinder and matching clutch perch
- Ohlins shock
- Giles rearsets
- Giles adjustable handlebars
- Giles chain adjusters
- Bagster tank bag
- Carbon ram air covers

Ideal toy for summer - any interested parties please get in touch! Bike located in NW Kent / SE London region.
