tidied the garage ready to rebuild the blade after it's winter engine refresh,service+clean.... just as i was leaving,turned to see the garage finally tidy and realised that everything in there is all to do with bikes apart from a pair of golf shoes..... at some piont i'll realise that enough is enough and stop buying stuff,but not today oh yea and when thats finished the bike under the blanket is next.
it's my FZR 4/6 (hybrid),just in the process of putting a stronger engine in it,and rebulding after a little off last yr. this is how it looked pre crash.....
Well got home from work and postie delivers 2 boxes,R&G rad guard and K&N air filter so after a quick cuppa it's out to the garage I go. The rad guard went on a treat although the zip ties are a bit fiddley but I got there in the end,then it's time for the K&N fitting. Well seat off and tank cover removed and heat cover off and WOW a right bunch of wiring,so my question is what is the easiest way of doing this or is it not as bad as it looks.
that looks one well sorted fzr400 scooby trying to think of that model is it 3tj?? probs wrong there? what kind of job was that to do drop the 600 engine in? bet it goes well with it in?
Got some clear Eazi grip tank pads! Fed up of sliding around on seat, think I will wait till its a bit warmer before fitting.
What pads have you gone for Hump ? I have EBC but can't say its throw me over the bars time ,just feel the say as the Honda issue.
it's not as bad as it looks tbh,just make sure you wark every connector you take off(although to be fair they all fal in the corrct place anyway).taking air box is the longest job wit the amount of screws lol
it is indeed a 3tj. as or the engine,it needed brackets welding onto the frame to take the 600 lump,if your handy with a weler it's a relatively easy job.(i'm not,but my m8 who did it is ) other than that it's all down to how far you want to modify it,this has had a fair bit done,and is a proper laugh on track,putting a lot of the bigger bikes to shame,until it all goes wrong obviously .......
thats what i meant,i've not quite mastered the art of teleportation as that would make it a whole lot easier!!!!
Today I've fitted r&g rad guard , brake and clutch reservoir covers black with hrc on them , Tank pad in hrc colours , ( took me ages to find it on ebay , but it looks good , so I think ) And got optimate all set up ,
