rzresurection Posted May 1, 2014 Author Posted May 1, 2014 Relays all wired and the indicators are working properly.
rzresurection Posted May 3, 2014 Author Posted May 3, 2014 Nice that fairing will be a lot stronger now! Yes, I don't think that it will fall apart as I'm riding [emoji6]
rzresurection Posted June 3, 2014 Author Posted June 3, 2014 Have been working on some painting and some other stuff Still have to do some speed blocks. Rubber arrived today. Dunlop Q3's I've had my bike on a rear stand forever. I put the front stand on. When I did, I found that the front tire has some serious drag on it. Feels like the calipers aren't releasing. I may have to do a caliper rebuild. Argh. It's probably the only thing I haven't rebuilt yet. WTF!
Moderator drewpy Posted June 4, 2014 Moderator Posted June 4, 2014 always the way with rebuilds. It all looks fine until you need to use it
dt502001 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 looking good Steve shouldn't be long now till she see's the road again
rzresurection Posted October 10, 2014 Author Posted October 10, 2014 Thanks buddy. It's been a PITA to get it running properly once I had it running. Seems to go decently. I got it running just in time for winter storage. Lol
blackhat250 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Nice in the black " , is the front end lowered,,,,
rzresurection Posted October 13, 2014 Author Posted October 13, 2014 Yes the front is lowered. I'm trying to help improve the geometry of the bike. With the R1 front end (less offset) and the FJ swinger (52 mm longer) the handling would be slower. I dropped the front to help compensate
dt502001 Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Hey Jeff looks good how the suspension working is it too stiff?
blackhat250 Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 She looks heavy tho" sapping the bhp ... you weighed it ?
rzresurection Posted October 13, 2014 Author Posted October 13, 2014 Hey Jeff looks good how the suspension working is it too stiff? Haven't had a chance to do a lot of suspension tuning yet. It is stuff on the front end. The back isn't bad. Spring rate on the R6 shock is similar to the RZ. Not enough time in the seat yet to give good feedback.
rzresurection Posted October 13, 2014 Author Posted October 13, 2014 She looks heavy tho" sapping the bhp ... you weighed it ? Yeah, she's chubby for sure. I need some stainless pipes - gain some Hp and lose weight (win/win). Will weigh it at some point.
dt502001 Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Jeff fyi stainlees wieghs more per sq in than mild steel your gona have to find other places to shave weight.
rzresurection Posted October 16, 2014 Author Posted October 16, 2014 Yeah for sure, but a set of stainless pipes will weigh less than one of my stock pipes. Plus I'll get a hp increase.
