I really should apply for a job in the K&N marketing department........  :lol

:rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin they are a good filter,been going for years 

[Andy FZS]

Just ordered one as I didn't change the filter earlier in the year when I changed oil and plugs. The last K&N filter I ordered was 4 off the little cone filters for my Honda 400Four in the mid 80's.

those were the days......got them fitted to my x7,not the same as standard as you do away with the air box and increse the jet size.....together with the microns it lifts the front wheel in 2nd just using the throttle  :eek :eek

[Andy FZS]

I remember being pillion on an X7 once heading towards a humpback bridge followed by a tight right hander :\  I was punching the pilot to slow down but all I could hear was his laughing :'(  Anyway we were home before the pursuing 250LC and CBX550. Those were the days and I don't miss them at all..............away camping every weekend straight from the pub into the tent and then back in the pub, no why would i miss it :\

swmbo`s very good at keeping me busy  :rolleyes :rolleyes :rolleyes ......still not finished the bathroom,very close though.....bikes been covered up in the garage since my last post many moons ago,weathers looks like its getting better for this weekend so might get out there and put the origanal carbs back on and correct the shim c**k up .......will update at weekend........my monies on the fuel pump now so will bypass this with a peice of straight tube and see what happens 

[red98]

nice day too fettle in the garage    uncovered the 600 and removed the carbs in readyness to fit the originals,now iam a GP HERO  :rollin :rollin  its very easy and i completed the job in less than an hour,i borrowed a few bits and peices from the old carbs and next job is to refit them,sort out the shims and by-pass the fuel pump,not a great deal done today but its a start 

[red98]

seeing all thoes 600s at the london foccer meet has got me motavated again.....spent half an hour tonight putting the original carbs back together sliders glide smoothly and settle with a reasuring knock......iam now happy that the carbs are not causing the stutter  ........all my hopes are on the fuel pump and i dont know why i didnt check it in the early days of "stutter solution saga"..........so a question for you all....anyone had any problems with fuel pumps ?......bikes a 1998 , done 40000 miles and been well looked after    

[Dead Eye]

I'm pretty sure bozboz had some issues with his fuel pump recently. They aren't overly expensive to replace though are they?

[red98]

yeh,thats right.think he fitted an xj900 one and worked well,there was also a link to what other bikes share the same pump,not looked at that yet,but very helpful......new patt ones at m+p sell for £80,will try bypassing first using a remote fuel supply suspended from the rafters....... :eek :eek :eek :eek

Ah ok, so a lot more expensive than I thought

[red98]
