    yep, back to these guys
  4. your da man! can you google for me too
  5. check all earths to frame connections. neutral is an earth switch, hence it earths the TCI. TCI's work by earthing to complete the current, coils should have 12v on ignition switch on just check all connections are clean too
  6. Mat love the trackers
  7. the neutral switch is needed to tell the TCI that you are in neurtal and its ok to fire up the bike. if you have a switch on the clutch, you could pull the clutch in as that over rides the neutral. if you don't, run an earth from the TCI to get spark but make sure your in neutral

    I had a woman just pull up right past the stop line at lights whilst I was walking across, she wasn't even looking forward. probably 2 metres past it. scary stuff
  9. something like that, A rose between 2 thorns more like it though
  10. good idea, still paying for the bike though :/
  11. was talking to Brad at work and asked if he was going to Pasty and pea night at Rivvy. Nooo, he's off to settle for fish and chips straight from work. i thought bollocks asked my line manager if i can get out early and yes, its on. so tonight i just did 100 miles with 2 BMW 1000rs's and they took me down some cracking new roads to me into Settle village, had a lovely chippy tea and a late night romp home. Life does'nt get better than that
  12. I'm not going this time, too much to do.

    no wonder XJR's are getting expensive http://www.bikeexif.com/maria-motorcycles-yamaha-xjr1300
  14. Aldi do an infrared thermometer ATM, may be worth getting one to measure heat in coils and exhaust etc
  15. Just putting it out there for now 2016 Sat 27th August - 2nd September (Practising commences 20th August)
  16. fair point mate was looking at your rep rather than the post (need me glasses on). just don't have an FZR only a FZ so can't help. TBH most yams of the same era share similar setups
  17. nope, an intro in the newbies section may go a long way too
  18. how hot is it getting? maybe a weal mix causing the issue
  19. it in, 2016 Squres meet The date for the 2016 gathering has been agreed with Squires, its going to be the weekend of 9th, 10th, and 11th September. That weekend avoids a clash with the IOM classic TT and just about keeps to our traditional slot of early September. I reckon the format will be identical to this year which seemed to be big success.... Friday night in the Café for a few beers ,Saturday rideout, Saturday evening in the Bar for beer and banter, then another ride on the Sunday... We will be doing a flyer and promoting it a bit later on but get it in your diaries now!! Read more: http://the2strokeforum.proboards.com/thread/13893/2-stroke-garthring-2016#ixzz3oTbdEjG1
