Airhead

Here is the 6 wire CDI and Magneto And here is the 7 wire CDI

Hi Paul nice to hear from you, that bike really does look like a lot of fun and you got it for F-all...nice, see what you mean about the mirrors tho...Gawd

There are only two adjustments that you can make from outside the carb. The idle screw ( Throttle stop screw ) adjusts the speed of the idle. The idle air screw adjusts the idle mixture. This is only at idle and does not effect anything above idle. Here is another method to adjust it. Screw the air screw in and out until you get the highest idle speed. Then lower the idle speed with the idle screw and do it again until you get the best idle. If you can't get it to idle, or rather the idle stays real high then drops off and dies, check for an air leak at the carb manifold. Squirt some gas or starting fluid on the manifold and see if the revs change. If they do, you have a leak. If your valves clearances are too tight, it will also effect the idle.

5 wires doesn't sound enough, from what I've read there should be either 5 or 6, read this Here

Not foolin anyone y'know

Look a great bike, bet its good in the twisties being nice n light, is that a nitro kit disguised as a can of red bull there?

Yorkshireman wants a headstone making for his late wife, and he asks the mason to carve 'She was thine' on it. When he goes back a week later the headstone reads 'She was thin' "No you idiot" he complains, "you've missed the 'E' off" So he goes back a week later and looks at the stone, which now reads ...... 'E she was thin'

Great to have you on board radar, been looking at your FZ600 thread, interesting stuff

Nice clean bike there OT, will have to pass on the primark window thing...well for you anyway

Did it tap even if the bike was stationary?

Ayup...Tetley bitter men , If yer cant beat em...join em

A bloke from Yorkshire goes to the jewellers: He says, "Can tha mek a gold statue o' mi dog?". "Aye, reckon a can," sez the jeweller. "Does tha want it eighteen carat?". "Neigh," sez bloke, "I want it chewin' a bone."

Come to think of it...Number 2 might be good advice for imanupstart...i mean, with his track record with "passengers of the foot"

If any passenger of the foot tries to obstacle my passage he's gonna get more than a melodious tootle from me i'll have you know

And 2 x 10

Hi Marc, that makes a refreshing change, welcome to the forum

They wouldnt get far though!

en tien van me too, good luck je prachtige jonge ding.

You been on the wine again OT ?

You do know where your spark plugs are dont you? You will see the caps plugged on top of them with a thick wire, at the other end of them wires are the ignition coil /coils. just spray the caps, thick wires (HT leads) and a little on the coil where the HT lead connects

HT (High Tension) leads are the thick wires that connect the ignition coils to the spark plug caps, spray them and the plug caps with WD40, see if that helps, as for the corroded horn, if your bike is still under warrenty i would expect them to replace it! Does your bike have an external oil cannister filter?

It wont be anything to do with the oil, that wont affect performance but will affect engine life, you say its worse in the wet, try a spray of WD40 on the HT leads and plug caps, an easy thing to do!

Chris have you read This thread, could it possibly be pulling a vacuum in the tank, if you think that's possible can you disconnect this one way valve gadget temporarily in order to prove or disprove this possibility. As for a whistling, these thing should set the alarm bells ringing, but you say its at 40 / 50 mph, you sure it isn't wind noise in your lid? try turning your head side to side to see if it goes. If its definitely whistling i would have it checked by the people who recently fitted a new crankshaft, whistling suddenly starting isn't a good sign.

Four Cats Four men were bragging about how smart their cats were. The first man was an Engineer, The second man was an Accountant, The third man was a Chemist, and The fourth man was a Government Employee. To show off, the Engineer called his cat, 'T-square, do your stuff.' T-square pranced over to the desk, took out some paper and pen and promptly drew a circle, a square, and a triangle. Everyone agreed that was pretty smart. But the Accountant said his cat could do better. He called his cat and said, 'Spreadsheet, do your stuff.' Spreadsheet went out to the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into 4 equal piles of 3 cookies. Everyone agreed that was good. But the Chemist said his cat could do better. He called his cat and said, 'Measure, do your stuff.' Measure got up, walked to the fridge, took out a quart of milk, got a 10 ounce glass from the cupboard and poured Exactly 8 ounces without spilling a drop into the glass. Everyone agreed that was pretty good. Then the three men turned to the Government Employee and said, 'What can your cat do?' The Government Employee called his cat and said, 'CoffeeBreak, do your stuff.' CoffeeBreak jumped to his feet....... Ate the cookies........ Drank the milk....... Sh*t on the paper....... Screwed the other three cats....... Claimed he injured his back while doing so....... Filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions....... Put in for Workers Compensation...............and Went home for the rest of the day on sick leave............ AND THAT MY FRIEND, IS WHY EVERYONE? WANTS TO WORK FOR THE GOVERNMENT!!
