thats right.....i have a pattern filter in there at moment looks as good as original,fits well  Big Grin ....iam thinking of treating it to a k+n,but a few more things to check before i do that  Wink


Re: stuttering fzs 600 - CRH - 26-08-12

Re: stuttering fzs 600 - red98 - 27-08-12

more garage time this morning.......carbs,checked the mixture.......4 turns out  :eek .....as ive stated before i`ve owned the bike for 10 yrs,9000 miles when bought now on 40000,carbs not been touched in my ownership and main dealer service records before that  :\
standard mixture settings should be 2 turns out  :eek i was going to richen by 1/2 turn,but left as is and re-fitted  Wink


1 1/12 hrs this morning,struggled re-fitting the carbs this time  :\ ....untill i realised its a lot easier mounting onto the air box rubbers and securing with the julibee clips and then sliding into cylinder head rubbers  Wink ..........i know that already,senior moment as iam at that funny age  Wink

Definitely recommend the K&N as well Wink Got one on mine but having replaced the entire exhaust system at the same time I can't comment exactly on it precisely - the entire system has been running like a dream though. Can't wait to get mine back tomorrow Big Grin


Re: stuttering fzs 600 - darrsi - 27-08-12

I've got replaced stainless down pipes and a what's virtually a race can, and it's always been just fine, but the K&N has made it noticeably better  :b  (not including the latest hiccup obviously)

Sounds a tiny bit different as well.


Re: stuttering fzs 600 - red98 - 27-08-12

had an afternoon with mumsy today  as 80th birthday,good day  Big Grin ,quized her and her elderly friends on the stutter problem and all i got was blank looks  :rolleyes ........bike fired up a treat this morning no problem.....inlet shims were fine,exhaust i increased by 1 size (0.05 mm) did`nt think i would notice the difference,could not have been more wrong........top end is as quite as something very quite  Wink .....not a single rattle or knock,even on first start up  Big Grin  well pleased with that  8)  tick over is a bit lumpy now so will re-balance the carbs...need to do a bit of homework on this to understand ....HG  :o .......as dont know what this is yet....but i do know its quite crucial to getting the best from the bike  Big Grin


    anyone know about this HG thing ?.......................... Wink

Re: stuttering fzs 600 - CRH - 27-08-12
