its a lever 10 minutes tops

this may be a warrantee issue, did the dealer inspect it? did he fit the parts for you, for free? might be worth emailing Yam UK and drawing their attention to it.

yeah pattern is the same nomenclature and material but not made by yamaha. some pattern parts are better than OEM some are worse.

one question. did you buy it from a trader/dealer? if yes, this is surely their responsibility to rectify. if you did then you need to return to them asap.

get better soon, dude. heres hoping for a better new year for you!

hey thats back luck, and on christmas too. the lever is an easy swap. if your bike is veru new why dont you put genuine yamaha lever on, iirc they aint much dearer than pattern. is that the only damage (and the bobins), if yes then you have got off lightly, tho im sure you are still pretty pissed. this might make you feel a bit better, even if it is schadenfreude: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=-UEg1-6iEeo

and from me too, have good one ladies'n'gents

guess your gunna have to disconnect the exup cables from the original can and just secure them out of the way or remove them completely. You may need to fit a power commander to compensate.

if you start your bike up after a long lay-up and it won't take any throttle, thats a sure sign the petrol has gone-off. Might be worth chucking some fuel conditioner in before you stow the bike away. modern unleaded goes off real quick, bikes are uber-sensitive to this.

sorry to sound like a tosser, but make sure you notify your insurance of this as the last thing you want is them refusing to pay out after it is nicked and recovered (lets hope not) with a non-standard paint job. It could add a fair whack to the insurance!

i know exactly what you mean. for years my alarm clock has woken me up with my local bbc radio station (radio bristol), which has a breakfast show consisting of local 'news'. However a couple of months ago, it occured to me that stories about trees being chopped down (to local opposition), pubs that closing (to local opposition) or pubs that are opening (to local opposition!) isnt really important. What gets me is they would chat for an hour about weston-s-ms pier burning down and speak to dozens of talking heads but get nowhere. The final straw was when i woke up to the sound of my deputy-head speaking on the radio (that was a head-fukc, thought i was dreaming!) I tend to avoid the news mostly (though i do read world news in the times at work). Wake up to gold radio now - music far better.

welcome dude. it is a good site - enjoy Edit: great fz1n!

i thought she was funny as the prudish widow in open all hours. kinda the stereotypical northern woman, what do you think Goff? RIP.

Any one else interested in this?

yeah any skool hols is good, that said i dont wanna block anyone elses ideal dates

hey i might be up for it, last year i was booked to go to eastern europe, but the lectrics went down the day before and i missed the ferry! shame as i prepaid most of the digs. depends when your planing on doing this as i teach and can only get school holidays off.

my $0.02, id be looking at something shaft drive as just a couple of trips could do a chain, and it means you dont have to adjust it etc. id want something which has a range of luggage readily available and most importantly is reliable. Maybe a BMW twin tourer? engine capacity isnt the issue, comfort, practically and reliability are vital

cos im 2 sandwiches short'

hey, welcome to this place!

go ahead buy some and review them for us!!! lol

this one is also doing the rounds due to the stoopidity of the OP: http://www.106owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=68729

that whole smidsy crap is from south gloucestershire originally, around north bristol there are loads of smidsy signs. load of rubbish, just jobs for beauracrats and ex-coppers on the gravy train.

I guess these are Maxxis tyres? if it is, i personally wouldnt put them on an R6. Buy something better, dont skimp on the footwear!

iv never heard of a fuel pump being killed by an airlock (not petrol anyway). The fuel pump just raises the pressure (with a lttle lift maybe from an nearly-empty tank), you cant burn the fuel pump out cos if it wont deliver fuel, the bike wont run! The injection side is probably 42.5psi 2.5bar, and air in there will result in a little lumpiness or a stall, but will soon get pushed through. Diesel pumps need priming, petrol does not have this problem.

these are brill goff - cheers. im gonna do these with my year 10s next week!!!
