    Misfiring Problem '04

    Thanks John (I assume that's your name?) I'll give that a try when I get a chance. Theoretically, if that is the problem then when I spray WD40 onto that area it shouldn't matter at the time whether it's misfiring or not - The fuel mix will be affected regardless, correct?

    Misfiring Problem '04

    Hi guys, My bike started misfiring intermittently about a week and a half ago after a particularly cold and wet ride into work. It was fine in the morning and then when I started the bike up to get home from work it was only firing on three cylinders - I believe it is cyl #4 that isn't firing...

    Odd problem, something to do with water I think.

    Thanks, so what did you do about it? Just replace the switch gear, and that appeared to sort it?

    Odd problem, something to do with water I think.

    My 04 FZ6 seems to have a bit of a problem with water. Whenever I wash my bike or it is left out in the rain for some time it gets a bit funny. It struggles to idle, throttle feels as if it is not responding properly and sometimes cuts out when I pull the clutch in coasting up to traffic lights...

    FZ6 S2 Scorpion + Decat Question

    I know this isn't greatly related to your question, but do you know if the de-cat pipe fits with the standard exhaust?

    190 Rear end

    And there was me thinking a 180 was a big boy tyre lol. Looks like you're wearing it in nicely, where abouts are you from?

    Renthal road bars

    When I get the chance, I'm going to get some pro taper contour bars on.

    Do you have the right to use a video camera (if the police pull you over)?

    I'd **** myself if an unmarked car blocked me off, then got out waving a gun at me.

    Anyone ever tried different tyre sizes?

    HI guys, Has anyone every tried a different tyre size for the front, like a 120/60 or a 110/70 as opposed to the standard 120/70? When I was on my CB500, the standard tyres were 110/80(f) and 130/80(r) but instead I used the same width but in a 70 profile. The result was a bike that turned...

    Does this sound normal?

    Ridgeback, do you mean yours does the same sort of thing?

    Does this sound normal?

    It starts up fine col or warm, I had 140 out of it the other day and felt like I could possibly get a bit more so I'm not too concerned about the top end performance, It just seems like when I give it that extra throttle it doesn't deliver anything. The bike is a 2004 uk model, about 17000...

    Does this sound normal?

    HI guys, was out for a good ride this evening, and noticed something that (to me) seems a little odd. Around mid rev-range the bike seems to have more power at sort of quarter-half throttle than it does full on... It's actually quite noticeable for me as I find myself pulling my face into the...
