jeeze Cliff, its like 12:30 here... no callin us east coast people :P

tldr... JK you probably just knocked it a tad loose when you had the caliper out...just gently snug up the banjo bolt, and try bleeding them. if that doesnt work then pull the bolt out and replace the copper washers on EACH side of the brake line and torque the bolt properly. bleed and you...

yea its pretty good when merging into traffic or whenever I go down to the drags :rockon::rockon: like Eric said, on the Fz1 and my R1, you twist and it GOES straight into illegal lol

how come nobody thought of JB weld and duct tape? Blah

I went +1 and I can still powerwheelie in 1st, jump up a few inches when grabbing 2nd and get head shake when grabbing 3rd....sooo it does put a damper on initial jump, but to say that you lost 10hp is just as much nonsense as saying that it cant wheelie at all.

Im down to help in the Atlanta area. :D

I would have just used the cup socket to begin with, but thats hindsight... take the front sprocket cover off, like mentioned, and get something that will eat away and soften the rubber or attack it with a heat source.

is that even possible? you would have to notice it running ridiculously rich to get that mpg.

I just put a t30 on my front 2 weeks ago...it felt a bit odd at first but that was because of residue from mounting it...sprayed it off and it only took like 20 miles before i could lean it with alot of confidence...

:popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:

you wont do it on a FZ...aerodynamics come into play on top of horsepower. my R1 ran out of gears at 189, now with a sprocket change im sure it could do 200+ easily, but you also have to have a good set of race tires, and a good chain guard, a well setup suspension...

way to rain on our hooning Cliff....

I was riding through my old HS parking lot (Starr's Mill High School in Fayetteville GA.) to get something out of my sisters car when I noticed a silver S1 in the row right behind!! Who was it!!?

of course it can do well over 120.... I know of an anonymous individual who sat at over 120 for 10+ miles the other night... and with the 17t it runs out of power at 153... the R1 however, does not run out of power lol this thread is officially ALIVE again. :thumbup:

in general yes, with the exception being if you order the ignition switch from Yamaha with the original key code, that way they should all match (seat, tank, ignition) with no problem.

I love how I have my R6 forks set up, the bike is extremely nimble at almost any speed, couldnt do that with the stock forks :P

:bow: I see what you did there.... except it needs to be either the same color or all one piece....

it will definitely come off with the side stand still bolted up,,, I havent done it in quite a while, but I know I didnt have to take the side stand off. iirc I used a ratcheting wrench and a box wrench to take the center stand off, I think I left the bracket there ( I was planning on putting...

I likes the Mustangs TOOOOO I make mine alot more fun lol

you guys need to stop making me feel bad, I gave up and painted mine flat black :P but my FZ is my primary mode of transportation, I would have to clean them every other day.
