I didn't realise that. What I did do, after Mark contacted me was go to the link that I'd posted. Obviously after all this time, it wasn't showing...
Hi Friend, you're not that far from me at all really. Now, your question, I believe that they are the same for your bike. Just to make sure...
DON'T use Car oil as it has too many anti friction additives in it, and it plays havoc with your clutch and starter clutch, You must use JA...
Has anybody even considered seized wheel bearings?
It shows that you don't know the bike either, as the 1100 has got discs, not drum brakes Excuse me???? What exactly gives you the right or...
Thanks a lot my friend, I'm just buying a GPZ 600R
Anyone know if there are any forums or groups similar to the XJ one on here for Kawasakis, especially the 1986 GPZ 600R at all? I'm having...
Re: At a loss... 80 psi is very low, and it's running too lean too.
Don't forget to check the above my friend, one word of warning, IF you do smell gas in your sump - by taking the oil filler cap off, and getting...
Normally mine operates at between 1/4 to half way. In standing traffic it goes right up to virtually in the red, then the fan cuts in and it...
Right my friend, 2 nuggets of info for you. First, if you can take your tank off, your thermostat is under there, the thermostat housing looks...
Is that the same with the stock 700 mufflers too fitz? as mine are just straight through
No mate, according to Chacol, they won't, apparently the ones for the 700 were made just for the 700 it's a weird shape specifically for the 700
Not too sure about that, I've just PM'd Chacol for info. Yes I saw that whole system on ebay too, Rather expensive at £500 including delivery...
Hi folks, I'm completely stumped now, my collector box ion my exhaust is shot, so my question now is...... What do I do? Can't get collector box...
Then that points to your valve cover leaking then, and seepind down over the fins
Re: K&N fir filter Worth the money? I too have the K and N oil coated stock style airbox filter, it was already fitted when I got the bike in...
Rastacia, it sounds like you are in the UK, are you? If so, where? Pete
I didn't think a Mxim exhaust header would fit a seca, for the exact reason you've described
Don't bother draining your carbs etc, ADD more fuel to the tank. I don't know how you guys manage to get problems with seafoam, I really don't....
Big mistake my friend, it's a matter of trial and error with the rejetting.
Thanks friend
Bump
Quick question, I have to replace an exhaust clamp (collector to down pipe) on my 86 Maxim-X and I know they are integral with the collector but...
anything except standard airbox will mean rejetting to a greater or lesser degree - As far as I know, hopefully, either Fitz or one of the other...
In a word, YES. That was the worst thing you could've done, when you fit pods or cone filters you open up a can of worms, it means rejetting, then...
personally I'd want to paint the whole thing
This has gained my interest, as I too am thinking of doing something to protect the collector box. I will follow this with interest. Sorry I...
Thanks my friend, I've contacted him
Or put the bike on it's side stand
Are you sure that they are direct fit petcocks or due you have to manufacture some kind of spacer to accomodate the new petcock? Either way put...
Thank you my friend, I think that just might do it, and you are perfectly correct regarding the jubilee clips
That's exactly what I've had happen each time, which is hy I said check for it Thanks for confirming that Fitz
The washer is there to stop the spring trying to widen the gap in the rubber washer on the filter, and slipping into the filter
I hope you've still got access to the old filter, as you will probably find that the washer you are asking about will probably be stuck to it...
Thanks for that suggestion, I actually tried the jubilee clip route myself before posting, but it doesn't seem to have worked, for me. Let me know...
Hi Guys and girls, well I got the carbs sorted out and the engine sorted, oil and filter changed, now she's running like a tank....Literally....
Bill I told you in your other post that the BS33 CAN be rejetted, it's no good starting another thread because you don't like the answer. The...
Nope, the BS33 are correct. You are better off having the stock exhausts on it, that is true, but the mikunis can be rejetted. The thing is,...
You can rejet the Mikunis
The Maxim-X part Yamaha part numbers are: 1 1AA-14611-01-00 PIPE, EXHAUST L far left as you sit on the bike 2 1AA-14621-01-00 PIPE, EXHAUST 2...
I am going to, my only problem is I've had to order the oil filter body to engine O-Ring and it hasn't arrived yet. I can driain the oil out of...
No Fitz, the wave washer was pushing the spigot away from the seal, instead of the spigot being pushed towards the seal, which it would be if the...
I don't know how I've missed this bodge job before now, except for the fact I hadn't stripped the Petcock before, but I've had a right shock in...
Make sure the spring in 20-21mm if it is shorter, then it won't hold the diaphragm in place. Read this, and make sure you follow it to a the...
Can you point me to the pdf you mentioned please, I've not seen that. Thanks
Ahh I see fitz, my mistake, if that's the case, I think you could double, treble, or even quadruple the costs I gave. you are perfectly correct,...
Just thought I'd let you know fitz, the cost of replacing all 20 shims here in the uk would be £160.00, shims from Yamaha are £8.00 each, so in...
+1 on what fitz says
Hi and Welcome. First off, get yourself a set of METRIC feeler gauges, you need metric feeler gauges to get any where near decent idea of sizes....
