Nice bike. Always liked the ZZR series.

Not a bad day for a run out, ' cept the first postcode put me in a golf course. Should have taken my clubs Donnington Castle Ludgershall Castle

If you google no plug caps one of the results is a data sheet which lists all the caps along with the resistance.

Careful Joeman, when she grows up she will cost you a fortune in tools for presents not to mention the phone calls with the little requests of, can you pop round and give me a hand getting the engine and gear box out of the car. I speak from experience. But on the plus side, Hoggs does most things now for herself.

Fixed it for you

if you google resistor plugs and resistor caps they were introduced to stop electrical interference for radios and other electronics, eg ICU. The NGK caps document list several values of resistance. 1 , 5 & 10Kohm.

Taken from the NGK plug cap listings. All motorcycle manufacturers now comply with current legislation which demands a standard of noise suppression on every vehicle. This is achieved usually by fitting NGK resistor covers though in many cases a combination of NGK resistor covers and NGK resistor spark plugs (R type) is necessary to satisfy the ministry tests. It is emphasized that despite the use of both resistor covers and spark plugs in such engines, due to the unique and superior construction of NGK products there is no loss of performance or shortening of service life. so for some bikes you need both. see what the resistance value of the cap is and check if the plugs offer the same resistance. Other web pages suggest the higher the resistance in the circuit the "longer" the spark time for clean burn but the plug is more prone to fouling. So sorry no real help here.

Not the best day for a run out and could not find a name sign at the first stop. Conisburgh Castle Conisburgh Castle Peveril Castle Finishes the Mdlands set

Maybe he just wanted to do pull-ups

Will probably go Monday now as the weather forecaste is shite. Off work Mon and Tues so it was a toss up which day to go. Hopefully Tuseday will be a reasonable day for a ride to try out any goodies I get Monday.

You're welcome. It may be the caliper or piston is sticking and not letting the one pad move away from the disc when releasing the brake, hence the one pad wearing. If it's a sliding caliper a good greasing of the pins otherwise clean up the Pistons and make sure they are free.

Dedicated GPS for the bike, i have mine on the bike all the time. Check out EBay for the levers. Got mine there and they give more adjustment than the standard ones fitted to the Bandit. Use a scala Q1 for linking to Phone and SatNav. Don't take pillions so can't say what the comms is like.

Adjusted mine to be more comfortable and easier to use, lower Han the book level. Forgot about the switch. Rode for a couple of days with the brake light on till I noticed.

i got a box of chocolates from a customer today Hope you have declared it. Don't want you being accused of accepting bribes.

start off with heated grips and end up with mixing petrol and diesel. This forum is like a box of chocolates etc etc.

Well done Lee. Pop across to the newbies section and introduce yourself.

She's ok

So that's why your drinking Stella tonight.

Well done Gollop.

So spray with petrol and set fire to it. Dries the wood, kills the worms and probably solves the saga of the extension. Or read this http://www.woodworm-info.co.uk/woodworm_shop_google.htm?gclid=CjwKEAiAjIbBBRCitNvJ1o257WESJADpoUt0YtxALC-IZddhaaTjTf5rQRn3gFzO8V2o4k6mfSaGkBoCcVHw_wcB

Most costing about the £75-100 mark will certainly do yor tyres and some paint spraying, but to do a lot of spraying or using other tools you will need to check the air delivery rate. Spray guns etc will have an air consumption figure and the compressor will need to be able to supply it within reason. But as you don't use the tool 100% of the time the system has time to recover and that is where the air resorvoir comes in so the bigger the air reservoir the better. To spray a lot you should also budget for a water trap, these not generally supplied with the compressor. Hope that makes some sense, it did to me.

The rear pressure does not seem high to me. The Bandit 1250 is 42 psi The GPX750 I had was 41 psi and I used to run that about 43-44, ( this improved the handling). The valve developed a slow leak and I knew when the pressure was dropping because if it dropped below 38ish the handling was au full. So I would go with the book pressures. But try it and see. However running too low a pressure increases the chances of a puncture, excessive wear on the tyre edges and poor handling.

Just take it easy and it will come as you get more confident on the bike. And again do wear ear plugs. As you get faster the wind noise increases. We've noticed

Because fuel is sold in litres.
