Re: Led tail lights,flashing too fast

No, only running the leds in the undertail,they seem the brightest and more prominent.What is a OP?

Re: Led tail lights,flashing too fast

Are they the long rectangular ceramic blocks with a wire each end that were supplied with the tail light?I fiddled around with them,joined them here and there but didnt seem to make any difference.

Led tail lights,flashing too fast

Just fitted a integrated clear led brake/indicator tail light to my zx7r.I also fitted a undertail with led indicators as well.The indicators in the undertail seem to be a lot brighter than the ones in the tail light,so i've decided to run with them,but ,the flash rate has sped up somewhat,and I ...

Purchasing chain and sprockets,best deal???

The time has come to replace the chain on my bike,and although the spockets look fine ,I understand it is common practice to replace them as well.I have got a few prices from here and there,but Im a bit confused as there has been price differences of up to nearly $300.00 ,which seems very extreme.I ...

Rejuvenate faded plastic,anyone know?

Anyone know how to get your old black faded plastic looking like new again?Ive tried the usual shit like Armour All,Mr Sheen and so forth,but, they just dont quite cut it.I took the old zx7r out for a spin today,ended up parking next to a couple of later model zx's,and to be quite honest,mine looked ...

190/55 tyre on a ZX7R

Just thought I'd pop the question,has anyone ran with a 190/55 rear tyre on a ZX7R?If so has it been of any benefit?Mate has a set of tyres for sale at a bargain price,one being the 190/55.

Re: Front brakes are spongy on a ZX7R

I reckon ive bled a whole bottle of Dot 4 fluid thru it ,but ive just been told today that my lines are probably rooted.I wrapped my hand around and pumped the brakes,and could feel them swell just a bit,which is probably enough to cause me grief.Do you have any idea the cost of new brake lines?

Front brakes are spongy on a ZX7R

Has anyone else who runs a ZX7R had any problems with front brakes feeling very soft and spongy.Ive bled them many times with some good results,but only to find they return to their former state of poor control and braking ability.This seems to be a re-occurring problem that I am plagued with ...
