    Bike was hit&run, alignment off

    I had an incident a year ago where the front wheel alignment went out. The advice to me which worked was don't loose the forks. Use a wall or fencepost to straighten the front wheel little bit at a time. Ride to test and repeat if necessary. Fixing it properly takes a bit more effort, but will...

    R6 engine

    Thanks dude, i'm carrying my cyl head across, so fueling and cams aren't an issue. I'm more worried about engine mount points, crank bearings and gearbox output shaft. $650 is a great price, but after postage here and import taxes it'll probably be more :( But thanks, as long as i can mount it...

    Happy birthday abraxas

    Yeah, thanks dude :thumbup: I thought i knew a fazer, but it's a learning curve. Same factory JYARJ frame numbers, but this is a grey import, other was official yamaha. I worked out that she'd done 1000 km per year since new, 10 year old bike. Yesterday i took her over 200 twice no fuss...

    Fazer 2

    Early november I dropped my bike ... not paying the correct attention led me locking up the front wheel and going down. It was less than 50km/h, full gear saved most of me, but the fazer sadly went to the grave. She had a cracked frame already, and at 173 odd thousand km it was not worth...

    What do you want inscribed on your tombstone?

    What a strange topic, but ok here's my thoughts ... I want my organs donated to my enemies [/jk] No tombstone, no coffin, no viewing, no nothing. Dump me wherever cheapest. But i don't even want a funeral, stupid ideas those. People spend far too much time on the dead, and not enough on...

    Well folks, that's all she wrote for this FZ

    Ok wait wait wait guys My frame is cracked too, had it welded about 3 years ago and it HAS held. Was an aerospace engineer that welded it though, NOT for your local bike shop. http://www.600riders.com/forum/garage-mechanical-help/24655-frame-cracked.html The cause was the lower engine...

    Motorcycle Plate Blocking

    I've been through all options with avoiding cameras. First created a plate flipper, worked through a cable running through a hose to the back, was very neat. :D Then they changed the law to make plate flippers a criminal offense, so i hastily removed it. :eek: A while later some plonker drove...
