Went on a 150km ride today after disabling the accelerator pump feature and loading the stock 00-01 map. The black puff when blipping the throttle...
My understanding is that they are different, you need to use the whole 6th gen TB's and air box together to make them fit a 5th gen. You will also...
I actually forgot that I enabled the accelerator pump feature, I'll start by disabling it and using the less agressive stock 00-01 map and see how...
It happened over a relatively short time. I only ride my bike once a week, I'm pretty much in tune with it and notice small changes straight...
Yes, I've tried a different map as well but no change. Even sitting on the stand in neutral, if I give it a quick 50% throttle rev, exhaust gas is...
You're right, FPR vacuum is only connected to cylinder 3 & 4, so it's not that. All my electricals were redone and upgraded a while back,...
I did a bit of digging around today with my limited time. With the vacuum line off the fuel pressure regulator, and letting the pump prime there...
Thanks boys, I'll investigate this week if I get a chance. My three daughters are keeping me busy lately. The TB's were rebuilt about 20,000km...
Thanks Terry, I will read the relevant pages in the workshop manual to see what I can do to check. I can also smell raw fuel when I shutt her off,...
I have a problem with my 5th gen running very rich, and economy suffering. I'm down about 60 to 80km less per tank. And my friends reckon that I...
Now that's what I'm talking about. Yours looks good as well Big Jim. I specially like the white.
This is a common problem with older bikes that have used ethanol fuel. The stuff eats away at rubber diaphragms and cause head aches to all sort...
I can only compare it to the VFR800, as my VFR750 ownership was too long ago (1986). The riding position is nearly identical, (1050 ST that is)...
Ooooh, I'd like to see a picture of that. Yep, she's a big arsed girl.
I was only referring to the S1000XR for passenger comfort. I wouldn't tour or carry a pillion on the S1000RR, I also had the misfortune of doing...
I love my 5th gen, but I must admit that it has nothing on some of the new offerings. Whenever I borrow my mates S1000RR or Street Tripple, or my...
My 01 had been sitting for a long time when I bought it, and it was left with air in the cooling system. The WAX unit hose is at the very top of...
There isn't normally a fuse on top of the battery unless something has been added. If you mean the fuse next to the battery that has a red wire,...
Sure do, not while leaned right over, but when starting to bring bike back up. Keep in mind I use Rosso III's with 34psi on the rear when having...
I agree that straight up wheelies is just asking for trouble, and they are not what I was referring to. Front wheel lift at take off, and from...
