I use to care, but after a while and seeing that many people squid on the road you just don't care. You also know the squids haven't had a decent stack yet, and when they do, they probably won't get back on a bike and will say something along the lines of "it's dangerous"...
Seeing as most of the people here have bikes, they must also have a way to move them!?! If anyone here has a trailer they can lend me for 11th and 12th Jan let me know.
As long as it can fit the 636 and a ramp on, it should be good...
There's a case and a half of beer or whatever tickles your ...
Without being rude, it's your responsibility to check you have the right parts. Most people in spares dept work off part numbers and diagrams, so whatever they see on the computer is what you get. :shock: Even if you know it's the wrong part!
I have had a one case where I asked for a 150/60 R17 ...
Just a thought has anyone used the Axle Armour/crash Knob branded axle sliders at all? Any thoughts? I'm happy with the way my Oggys held up in a slide so I might give them a try.
A bit of a conflicting weekend for bike fans, there's the show, a track day on the 22nd at EC and the Oran Park 6 Hour. At least there will be variety.
Question is would the bike feel any different with non genuine parts? I very much doubt it. But if your worried about it make sure he uses genuine parts.
And for what it's worth, Kawasaki probably get most of their service parts made elsewhere. I was told by a few people that Ryco make OEM filters ...
If you really want it just buy it, which it seems you want it. You probably wouldn't be riding a bike if thought with your brain, instead of your heart...
Having heard a few 250Rs with exhausts, they were very loud for what they were, but they never sound 'right'. In other words I think it's ...
I hope the quality of the bikes isn't affected too much. So with all the money Kawasaki saved they should have a MotoGP/WSBK championship winning bike by 2012?!?
Maybe give the Kawasaki mechs a call and see if the ZX14s (I'm guessing that's what you own) are known for these problems and if there's a fix for it. Perhaps change to a different set of pads may help things. I'm not really sure...
Lean will sorta make the engine rev harder/quicker but not make as much power. I doubt you could really tell on a EFI bike.
The ECU can't self adjust A/F ratios as it doesn't have the 02 sensor to work off, so nothing self adjusts, whatever has been programmed into the ECU is how it will stay ...
