If you're only just figuring that out, this must be your first bike (not counting anything back in the 70s/80s)... It's not the bike, it's not even the insurance, it's the damn ancillaries! lol Helmet, Jacket, Trousers, Gloves, Boots. Then you need a lock & chain... Then you need a lighter security option... Then you need a different lighter security option because the first one turned out to be crap... Then the Summer comes round and those nice Trousers & Jacket are way too hot, so you need a lighter set... Then you've forgotten your big Gauntlets and need a lighter pair... THEN, you start doing little bits & bobs to your bike and decide you need a paddock stand... Then you realise you need a FRONT paddock stand... Then, if you don't already have them, basic tools... Then more specific tools... Then expensive tools... Then your basic tools are too basic and you want a better set... THEN, your Helmet times out and you need another one... THEN, you get another bike, and your gear is the wrong colour and it all starts again..!!!

Anybody know where to get/find a fzx750 headlight?
What NEO said... Also, take a look on https://www.fowlersparts.co.uk/ , find your part, then post the part code here. Gives everyone a better chance...

Yeah, as Neo said, wet filters (I just couldn't remember what they were called...). Like K&Ns.

I have no preference for either of those, however... Just bare in mind that if you get 'oil' air filters, there's a lot of work involved keeping them good. Yes, they are great, however. If you don't put enough oil on them or don't clean them and replace the oil on a regular basis, they don't work properly... If you put TOO MUCH oil on them, then they suck that into the engine and / or clog up..! With either option, I suspect you'll have to do a lot more work / more frequent checking than the standard paper filters.

Changed to LED on my 2016 YBR Custom, indicators aren't co-operating
Hihi, first off, welcome in... So... LED swaps aren't just straight forward... Ever... There are several questions that need answering before you get anywhere near an answer to this. 1/ Did you purchase a dedicated LED indicator upgrade for your particular bike? 2/ If not, did you just buy a cheap set of 4 LED indicators? 3/ If not, did you go the very cheap route and just buy 4 LED indicator 'bulbs' and replace them? 4/ Does your bike run on a 'CANBUS' (Controller Area Network) system? 5/ Did your install include a controller unit? There will be several more questions no doubt from more knowledgeable people, but that's your start... The fact that your indicators flash at the correct speed means that your bike isn't detecting the low power draw of the LEDs as a burned out bulb, which means either they're regulated or your replaced your indicator relay... 6/ Does your bike have a single turn signal indicator bulb on the dash or a right & left indicator? If it only has one indicator bulb on the dash, it's possible that you're getting a current leakage thru the shared turn signal indicator bulb. Removing this bulb and trying again will tell you if this is the problem. If it is, you need to install a diode in the bulb wiring...

hello
See, that makes so much more sense than in the Appalachian mountains..! They did them in exactly the same pattern, but red too. But you're right, the Blue ones were far more common, and yet, if you look around for one these days, the blue ones are rare as hell!??! He should be up there at the top now, I've given him one too. For bikers, we have some strange views of 'exciting'... rofl

hello
Banff... Had to google that! But I'm getting that it's in Canada. You don't sound like you're in Canada..? I'm going to go on the principle that you're in England and work from there! lol. In any event... Welcome in! At least you'll be able to do your DAS and not have to wibble through the rigmarole of going through the licence levels! It's cold at the moment, but at least that means you should have passed by the time the nice weather starts.

Or, there's the expensive / buggeration option: When was the last time your valve gaps were done?

Rebuilding 70s nissin 14mm Yamaha brake master cylinders. rx125 rd etc
You could possibly do with an external mike for your camera. You have a rather resonant voice like me, there's a lot of reverberation on the audio... Other than that, an informative video (that's actually in focus!!!).
