    depends on the colour, it used to be just PJ1 but they stopped making yamaha silver and the only silver i can get is from YAMBITS via ebay or shop. for black its PJ1 every time!! sprays directly on clean alloy and is heat proof.

  16. I would get second hand axle and spacer and angle grind the f%cker out. sorted. check ebayas there's loads of parts there.
  17. I love it when peeps turn a problem into a benefit
  18. way too expensive, donnington on the 7th Feb is the first show for me (hopefully)
  19. if its electronic then the front brake application would take it out of auto mode!!
  20. I think you can get away with 2 amp if you are NOT running starter motor. I am going to try one that size as you only need to exite a magnet!! I would keep the air box hoses and the T-peice which goes to the breather system as this gives the diaphram an undisturbed air flow to the carb. I am doing this with my xs tracker and it looks good with out the side panels. yes I have emgo and they are too tight but perfecto for the air box tubes!! as for the bars you need to change the harmonics to where it is confortable Ie where in the rev range you are riding! as you are Leaning more on the bars you are affctivly changing the harmonics by adding your body weight. do you still have the rubber isolation plugs in there? try tightenig them or losening them (not too much LOL)

    what normally returns the pads back is the "rolling" action of the piston seal as it returns to normal state after compression. problems can arise with rust in the brake cylinder affecting this and also the "slurge" hole in the master cylinder blocks up, preventing a return of a small amount of brake fluid from the initial compression of the brakes.
  22. I would suggest getting a manual as it is detailed there, not too hard depends where its routed originally. If you PM yamagod, i'm sure he'll have an electronic one!!
  23. and it will get the air out of the system as well
  24. lets hope it extends to Manchester!!
