I have a ZZR250 which I am trying to get on the road. The rear brake rotor is looking on the iffy side, could pass road worthy, might not. I have got prices off some wreckers and the best price so far is $65 posted. I have been looking on ebay as parts and noticed a lot of cheaper generic brake ...

I recently purchased a 1993 ZZR600 and have been told by my mechanic I have a leaking water pump. He has done a temporary fix but suggested I look around for a replacement before it leaks again. I have got prices on a few second hand items and priced them new from within Australia but when looking ...

Thanks guys. I now have a small shopping list of stuff I need to sneek past the wife.

I recently bought a 1993 ZZR600 and am planning on doing most of the maintenance in it myself (pretty well anything apart from rebuilding the engine/transmission). I am wondering what people deem to be the essential tools/measuring equipment/calibration equipment to have to perform maintenance a ...

Do dealers in QLD need to supply a Vcheck or only a REVS and RWC? Would it be worth doing a Vcheck on any bike, even if from a dealer?

Unfortunately I cannot stretch the budget to $5k but might be able to get it out to $4.5 if the bike is right. You are right in saying that the extra $1k opens up a ...

EDIT

Do you have a shaft drive too? Most of us Toowoomba country hicks do

when I owned a chain drive bike, I would clean it every 1000kms or so using kero, chux and a toothbrush.

As for lube, I originally used a wax (cannot remember the brand, have the remainder of the can lying around somewhere but then I tried mobil chain lube which I got from supercheap for $5 a tin ...

Grrrrr....people changing their names is dring me nuts. I fished through 20 pages of Dravens post history to see why he was going to be home bound before realising he was 87ninja...

can anyone post some pics of the 2 shirts? I have not seen the green eyed monster before.

the new low capacity kawasakis are shit. I would not buy a new gpx250, the build quality is not as good as the old jap ones.

Yup, won't be until Sunday though. I'll send you a message before I come.

looks like Sunday will be a tank off day. Also, what sorta $$$ in parts would I be looking at to do the carbs and fuel tap? Just gotta prepare the wife.

If it has Mikuni carbs like my GNs- there is a tube which can be seen at the bottom of the carby bowl- it hooks up to a tube in the bowl that makes sure the carbs don't flood above a certain level- it's a safety thing- it shouldn't flow fuel ordinarily- either your float level is too high, needles ...
