Quick clutch question.
Hi guys My FZR hasnt been moved for a few weeks. I dragged it out today and it started without too much fuss so I was very happy. Kicked up the side stand... no problem. Knocked it into first... clutch held in and it pulls forward. Apply the brake.. its stalls. It seems like the clutch is slipping slightly so when i brake to hold it stationary it cuts out. Is this just because its been stood, or do I need to break out the tools? Cheers Pete

Brake upgrades... FZR1000RU
Hi guys I understand that the blue spot caliper is an easy upgrade for my 1992 FZR1000. Can I use calipers from other manufacturers or the gold spot ones? Any help with improving my bike is appreciated. Pete

Blue spot calipers
Hmm so do the gold and silver calipers fit have the same mountings as the early blue spot? I want to upgrade my fzr and have read about blue spot upgrades, but if the others fit and are better i'll go with whats best. Cheers Pete

Adjusting clutch on a sr125?
Hi guys My clutch lever is pretty much right out when on the biting point. What is the best way to adjust it, is it simply adjusting the lever or does the clutch need looking at too? Cheers Pete

Improving a sr125..... any ideas?
Hi guys Ive just bought a sr125 1991, on a bit of a whim. I will use it to commute, park up and not worry about it. But also want to get the other half on a bike. As its a 1991 it has drum brakes and generally a bit dated....so is it possible to tinker a little and make it stop and go a bit better? Cheers Pete
