they will just say something like "we have taken aboard your suggestions but we would need to test out all our clothing and we dont have the time/employee's so therfore we rely on our customers feedback" you know the kind of shit they pull....
how about something like this

Ahh I have another idea and a simple one to try. It sounds like water in the float bowl...typical power one minute and struggling the next!
Undo the float bowl drain screw and drain some off, if theres water there it will soon be fixed
hmmm... wonder if thats why mine is doing it now????
ill be trying this also cheers

Sounds like a air intake problem try cleaning and oiling the air filter!
Mine in the hot weather was doing as you said so I drilled 4 holes the size of 5p coin in the top of air box cured problem instantly, now with the cold temperature she drawing too much cold air so ill have to cover up the holes!!!!

I do believe that these manufacturers should state clearly if they are water proof or splash proof...
Maybe like a grading system of how long they would stay waterproof 1hr 2hr etc etc but they wouldn't do that would they there happy for us to buy there shit to bin it for another....

Hello and welcome

All I got is regatta water proof over trousers and a mac in the sac for when it rains lol, there small and fit in there own little bags then I have some cheap asse armoured trousers and jacket that offer no water proof values but are warm (I think most jackets that offer full waterproof protection don't keep the water out for very long)
If it rains I gotta pull over and get my water proofs out so I'm also interested in seeing if anyone has found a waterproof setup

clean your jets
me i normally split the carb up pull all the jets out then put the whole carb in a tub covering with petrol and use a tooth brush to clean every inch then once ive finished i blast with the carb cleaner/compressed air hold the jets up to the sun and look through make sure the hole is there and nothing clogging it up.
make sure you blast some cleaner/air into all the places where the jets sit

ive got the carbon reeds in mine also fully de-restricted but the person who i bought it off de-restricted the bike and jetted her up she runs perfect (light brown on the plug) but he never removed the reed restrictor on the clocks so it wouldnt go to its full potential...
i only knew about the reed in the clocks because of this forum, ive gained alot of knowledge and also done the topend with the help off YOC members...
ive been toying with the athena bore kit for mine to give her a little extra help as its full of hills around here but im happy at the moment, once i get these AC10's on her ill be off getting manky and falling off

i also like it... but to be fair the exhaust kinda spoils it a little for me -!

cheers

What
The
Fuck...?

you know what ive just ordered a set of AC10's, they look the most usefull offroad tyres...
i remember seeing someone with them AC10 tyres on there drz and i honestly thought he was riding with illegal tyres on so to be honest the extra 30min googling has paid off for me.
i am also under the impression they wont last as long on the road as the tkc 80's/tw301's but hey ho ill be smiling on them lanes ooooooh yaaaaas
