Kawasaki Sportsbike Riders Club - Australia - Online Forum

Hey y'all this is my little baby, i have to admit though i didn't take the pics, a friend of mine did, but i thought i'd put it in.

they discussed this on kawiforums before but i cant find it at the moment, you might want to give it a try. basically they were having problems with air trapped in the system after an oil and filter change, and the oil pressure light stays on after the bikes been started.

na fuck cutting that thing off.

you should have no worries just putting the hoses in a position so they are on the other side of the "tab" or whatever they call it (if they need to be there that is).
if it really does cause trouble (which it wont) two minutes with a hacksaw will remove that thing ...

Or you could just do what Neka did when he bought his.



Get your mates to do it for you.

my mates are lazier than me :lol:

thanks for the big write up MrStompy, it doesn't sound too hard. i got Galfer lines which run both lines from the master cylinder. The only thing is that they included a ...

Im just abit worried there might be something tricky with putting new lines on. or is it just a straight swap sort of thing?

i dont have a problem with bleeding, i've done it before.

Hi all, i've recently purchased braided lines from overseas for my 636, just wondering if anyone's done the install themselves? Difficulty?

I remember seeing an install guide in an UK magazine but not sure which.
Does anyone have a comprehensive step by step guide of some sort?

cheers.

did the change, tightened to the specified torque, washer seems to be a little depressed from the bolt but i reused it. doesn't seem to be dripping or anything so alls good for now.

I think next time i'll be less cheapskate and change it...

lol your comments have been noted

i forgot when i was down there...

Never replaced it either!!

Once it got chewed, so i fliped it over and tightened it a bit harder, just over a grunt!

a mate of mine did an oil change the night before a trackday, tightened to 2 grunts. damaged the thread and was leaking oil all over the track the next day...lucky he was out ...

righteo i'll skip it for this time around and get one for the next change.

where can i find the tightening torques for these bolts anyone know?

Planning to change my oil and filter for the '05 636 this week, should i change the washer or not? i've heard i can just turn it around but i dont like that idea much.

IF i should change it can i just use any washer and what size are they? Hardened?

i thought ten kate was honda?

i might chat to TKA when i get a chance or something.

they are...i said that....lol

no one knows wot is under ur bike neway.... so do the basic stuff..bling the stuff ppl can see...

oops you're right :oops:

yeah planning to do that too, again hard to source ...

Not likely. As a whole, Japan is an expensive country. It's one reason why everyone's so keen to sell their consumer goods there. Most of the stuff you might be able to get in Japan will be from the US, anyway.

If you just want to have a pipe from an exhaust manufacturer nobody's ever heard of ...

i haven't ridden the 07 but from all reports the power & torque are down compared to 06, but handling is sharper on the 07. But that can always be solved by getting your suspension sorted and aftermarket parts anyway.

plus i prefer the 05/06 cuz it looks meaner than the 07s, which just looks like ...

you gotta tell me what they say first :P and pfft sif i'd crack a tasmanian on my sister even if she was hot, even if i had a sister.

yeah im just looking for something thats different, i just dont want what everyone else's got. i'll be keeping my bike for a while so i want to make it special.

i ...
