Sorry to hear, dude! Wish I had some parts you could use, but c'est la vie. Best of luck getting back on your feet, and with your bike's restoration.

I tried everything under the sun to reach the engine side adjustor without having to take extra stuff off, but to no avail. You'll need a long extension or two and a ratchet to get the throttle bodies off, as there's four little bolts underneath which are a pain to reach. Just loosen them -...

It's getting to be slim pickings now, but I updated the list. Been really short on time as of late - my apologies, folks!

Re: February 2016 BOTM - uploads enabled Count me in, folks!

Here are a couple of photos of me in the process of taking my bike apart. All in all, to get to the point where the plastics were off, it's taken me about two hours due to a number of hang ups along the way. I got my little oil filled heater I picked up at Canadian Tire hooked up and on max...

Welcome, dude! You'll find plenty of good people here!

This would explain why my bike on a few occasions got up to temp, and then went back to 'Lo' once I started moving even slightly.

Ideally, they should be factory set if you buy them for our particular model. Double check the plug gap with a feeler gauge, however.

You're gonna want those P1X baffles, lest you attract cops from miles around. Edit: All this thread necro. Gah! I should have paid closer attention.

Ah, that would explain why I've been noticing better results then! A guy I work with suggested I try running with a vacuum gauge hooked up to see how it affects my mileage. Really interesting video, thanks for sharing!

Thanks! Ordered some levers from the2wheels (nice blue, 3D shorties) and am likely going to extend that and get some coloured bar ends just for kicks. I need to take some stuff off and get to the valve cover gasket I'm pretty sure, as there's a bit of oil weeping from the top over time. I think...

Kind of related to fuel economy, I've got a 2015 Cruze 1.4L Turbo Eco in manual. The manual says that the 1500-2500RPM range is for regular operation, and you shift from 2500 up. Now, this car has a lot of low down torque for what it is, and you can run it at 1500rpm no problem and it doesn't so...

I've got a Qwest and find it's a solid helmet, although I haven't owned anything else in my short riding career. Highly suggest picking up a mirror tint visor from Amazon or the likes for a few bucks if you go that route.

If I felt like I needed stiffer springs for my weight... I'd just save money and buy less food. Not only would you be able to ride better, you'd feel better too! Although, FI has come up with some worthwhile suggestions thus far.

2002 CBR600F4i w/ 49,000km. New oil, plugs, fluids, filter, tires, chain, and sprockets! Runs like a top, and is in great shape all things considered! Time for some winter touch ups, and prepping for the next season! I figure pissing off the rents by riding it down the street already without...

Welcome back dude! Loving how you managed to defy gravity on the beach :rolleyes: !

I could have sworn it was 5 cans... No wonder it didn't work for you!

Re: FZ6N 2005 won't start (solved) Could your plugs be fouled/improperly connected? Fuel pump work? etc?

Maybe his butt makes his butt look big :rolleyes:

Happy birthday man! I'd have been a little more lost without you, our friendly, resident monkey!
