usually a replacement. I managed to get one from a guy in Derbyshire who made a batch of them. I suppose modern cnc can knock one up out of nylon in no time.

toying with photoshop today and particularly like the Gulf colours. So I got the FZ and this is what I came up with what do you think?

I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone. I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there. I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to be driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my friends, family and work. I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I'm not too much on physical activity anymore. I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often. I've been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm. Sometimes I'm in Capable, and I go there more often as I'm getting older. One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense! It really gets the adrenalinflowing and pumps up the old heart! At my age I need all the stimuli I can get! I may have been in Continent, but I don't remember what country I was in. It's an age thing.

just a thought, chilterns did a 2 stroke tuning manual the YAS1 may be in there as yam did tuning kits

depends on what age the bike is whether you have O rings or not (I assume pilot O rings) 1980 was a turn about year its not about premium fuel its about the ethanol in modern fuels.

open the pilot screws to 3 - 3.5 turns out. the "new" fuel doesn't burn as well as the old. carbs need to be clean and I mean really clean. if the bike has been standing over a month the fuel starts to varnish

mine was a mark 3 beast. great sloping dash in it and loads of room for "sleeping" in

looks a good project. Got no info on it though. sorry

what? intro's are your first post, cryptic questions maybe your second

try and find out what the bike is based on. Yamaha usually use parts to interconnect with each other from the same time period. bearing factors are your friends

i used to own a blue cortina, the most stolen car in the uk. I got stopped all the time. As soon as i see cops behind me, I'd just pull over, open the boot and glove compartment and wait.... nowt to hide and was sick of doing "producers" at the local nick (remember those?)

nice job Mark. resto pikkies would be good too. we like to see progress/how to's etc

that's a find John.

you wearing out trainers Kev?

Its worse for students who should know better. They happily step out in front of you sending you in a full wheel slide and trying to avoid their oblivion on this planet, then smile at you along with a cheeky wave and carry on their merry way!

some peeps hang the bike off the rafters using strong rope.

nice bike

never had a switch and I have always managed to flip it. I think its some thing that is natural. now for leaving the ignition keys in the bike and walking off is a different matter.......

:babyha:

someone stepped out in front of my car from behind a van. Luckily I was in 2nd gear so just knocked her over as the car lurched when braking. Trust me, the police were everywhere (must have been a quiet shift) and they were lapping it all up. The whole road was shut off and as it was local, was quite embarrassing for me. I got put into the police van, breathalysed, cautioned and had to make a statement. luckily the girl was just a hysterical mess (30yr old) crying for her mum. I also got witnesses that said it wasn't my fault and the girl did say it she made a mistake. I wasn't prosecuted (what for?) but was a load of hassle and time.

seen that before, but props to you for coming up with it yourself.

buon compleanno Foams, keep off the drink as you can't afford any more eBay purchase yet!!

Test Your Brain This is really cool. ALZHEIMER'S EYE TEST (I love this part.. Its absolutely amazing!) Count every "F" in the following text: FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS..... (SEE BELOW) HOW MANY 'F's? Count them again. WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- no joke.. READ IT AGAIN ! Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 'F's before you scroll down. The reasoning behind this is further down. The brain cannot process "OF". F INISHED F ILES ARE THE RE SULT OFYEARS OFSCIENTI F IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OFYEARS..... Incredible or what? Anyone who counts all 6 'F's on the first go is a genius. Three is normal, four is quite rare.

the neutral switch is just a live connection. its exactly the same as the xs400/RD's. you may have a relay associated with your though which may be causing the issues.
