I can't beleive it's been over a year now. I forgot to update on this, thought I did. I ended replacing the water pump assembly, I found all of the parts in stock at Chapparral motorsportsin San Bernardino. Cost about 75 bucks, I saved a bundle on the labor cost, very kewl!! Pretty easy to...

Hey, forgot to Thank-you for the kind offer, hope jmerch44 could use it!!! Cheers!!!

Sorry for the crappy pictures, cell phone! Thanks again Cmayer31!!!!

That is some smooth looking wear there!! My ex tire has more wear on it, it actually looks like the rubber was starting to peel from the inner carcass, something like that. It's funny how you get used to things, and until someones points out the problem, you swear everything is OK. It takes a...

More like an inverted mohawk JAJA! Actually it was 13,300 to be exact, and yes squared, original BT-020. I'll post pics tomorrow!

Update! I had the tire repaired with a plug/patch from a bike shop in TJ. I wasn't really sure what it was until today. I've read in other forums that this repair pretty much retains the original speed rating of the tire. For the meantime I'll take it easy, but it should be a permanent fix. I...

Ah man! I'm putting this on my future to do list for my XJ as well. Looking forward to your final review. I've seen these racks for quads too, they're much wider though.

Thanks Cmayer31!! Picked the tire up on Saturday, hope to have mounted this week. Just wanted to let you know that I assume full responsibility from the tires repair, so no worries for you. I do hope I can afford a new one sometime, ti'll then, it's just legal freeway speeds. Cheers!!

Should be fine. Hopefully it's only temporary, a patched tire is better than a tire showing inner layers i suppose. I don't really abuse my FZ, mainly for work and the occasional cruise. Maybe that's why the tire lasted so long, sissy, I know. Cheers!!

Thank you sir!! I'm sending you a PM. Cheers!

If I could get my bike to a rideable condition soon, I could help in a group ride down south. I know all the killer local food stands in Tijuana!! All you would need though if you are a US Citizen is a valid passport, if you have a permanent resident alien card that's all you need too. Cheers!!

Sending reply. Thanks!!

Last time I patched a tire was when I was 13, bicycle tire that was. Is it the same principle or diferent?? Thanks! You sir are correct!! I live in Tijuana and work in San Diego.

HA HA!! I knew these pics were familiar, I see you're a NAXJA regular, so am I. Is that your XJ? If so, you have good taste my friend, an FZ with a XJ. There is a forum in TJ that I hang out in, we do alot of local off road trips. Oh BTW, nice pics! I live in TJ and work in SD, thanks for...

I kinda feel embarrased to ask, but I have no other immediate choice. I'm looking to BUY a used stock size rear tire. I just hit 13k on my original tire, and it's starting to show the inner layers. My FZ is my only means of transportation now. I'd be really grateful if you have one at a really...

You sir, have the best color FZ6, oh wait, I mean we have the best color out there :rockon: I guess it doesn't look that bad, I'll try painting black just for kicks. Cheers!

I went to my local Pep-Boys to pick up the oil filter and couldn't find the regular blue one. The box is yellow with the same part number PL14610 , is it just new packaging?? BTW it's mustard yellow :confused: Cheers!

Thanks for all of your replies!! Heres the deal, with our company discount I could get a 160g PS3 shipped for $455, the dell that I was looking at is roughly $1k, fully loaded memory and Bluray etc. Currently my computer is part of my Home Theater, I don't use it much for other things cause it's...

I'd like to get some opinions from everyone as to what system to buy. My two options are a PS3 160g or a Dell Slim with a Bluray drive. I mostly use my current vintage computer for picture viewing and music only, I got it plugged in to my LCD HDTV and my Home Theater. I'd look to upgrade to a...

This is where we play, Tecate B.C. Mexico, and yes, it's where they make the beer TECATE. Cheers!
