  1. I wouldn't randomly take my bike key to a pub if I hadn't rode it there But your not adverse to slapping it down on the bar then
  2. Its an underseal gun for the likes of waxoyl .
  3. Pit to pit 17" (43cm) This is an old product range garment named multi sport/ cross shirt Does not have back protector
  4. If you use bicycle innertube slices you can generally stretch it over each individual cushion or even over the "spoke" parts in the hub
  5. On behalf of Wife Spidi Lady Teker leather and textile trousers size 40/UK 8 These are a current style from Spidi and a their spec can be found here: https://spidiuk.com/products/womens/womens-trousers/teker-leather-ladies-trousers/ I've only worn them literally once (yeah, I know everyone says that, but I actually mean it!) and they're in nearly new condition. Sadly, they're a tad too long for me and don't really suit me and my riding style. They have the standard hip and adjustable knee armouring, long rear ankle zips, velcro waist adjusters and an additional waist hook fastener to stop those awkward moments when your trousers pop open mid ride! They're available new from various outlets for £300ish. These are a bargain at £50 (+P&P if necessary) Local collect ox11 also
  6. Selling on behalf of the wife : Ladies Spidi leather trousers. Italian size 40 which is about a UK size 8. They come up quite large and fit more like a 10 although the waist is tiny. I bought them from ebay and I've never worn them after trying on . £30 + p&p Local pick up (ox11) also

  8. Have you tried the radios not being connected as bike to bike ?ie as walkie talkies and does the range differ
  9. https://www.themotorbikeforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=62866 May help
  10. Throttle position sensor Maybe Only thing I can think of but surely you wouldn't have one on a carb as they are for fuel delivery calculations on injection systems Gz do use a tps ..its not just fi. It controls the ecu timing retard or advance
  11. Cheers . Maybe when I get time to move the wood from the alley way, then I can do it. It will take me a good hour to shift it all out, and then the hard work begins. I have paid a deposit on the ZZR and will pick it up on Sunday as a temporary run-around, until I get the Triumph running. Once that is perfect, then I will strip the ZZR and restore it to beautiful condition, including new fork seals, which I have never done before. Re fork seals get a standard sized wooden broom handle and a roll of gaffa tape handy for creating a tool to hold the internal rod whilst undoing the lower retaining bolt
  12. Does your rear brake line foul on the wheel under loading ? Looks awfully close unloaded

    Real inspiration

    Check out talan racing too
  14. Temp guage may not move a lot if the thermostat has been removed ..to see if guage works properly try disconnecting temp sender wire from sender and make a contact to earth ( chassis )turn ignition on the temp guage should climb all the way to the top ( make sure you have a good contact use a small bit of wire ie paper clip or such like in the connecter to make sure) If it doesn't climb trace your way through the system testing with an earth connection at the various connectors If it does climb its a sender fault or thermostat has been removed but possibly the following : Kawasaki gpz, zzrs are renowned for the sender unit not earthing on the thermostat housings ..try attaching a seperate earth wire from the battery negative to one of the bolts on the thermostat housing or to the large nut part of sender unit ( you can just loosely touch it as a temporary test with bike running it should start to climb as the bike warms up . If it does then create a permanently attached lead from thermo housing to an earth point Fan should rotate freely by hand
  15. It has been really hot in past few days . Coupled with a hot engine Coupled with a hot chain. Chain lube gets thinner as it gets hot and if its cheap lube it was thin to start with . But yes does look similar to Hedgehog Shit ( only seen one of the 7 hedgehogs we had in garden last year since hibernation ended so far and even he has not been about the past few days )

    clutch plates

    Now this question is purely based on a google search and not seen proof of it being 100% an issue. Apparently some ebc kits are specified NOT to use fully synthetic oil so is this something a possibility ?

  20. Bit like bikers when you live near a twisty section ... FFS change gear ...
  21. F2 and f3 cbr have different sized rear wheels so that may raise issues . Is this where i make you swear as i do have : A f2 swingarm and a f3 swingarm But they are earmarked for future track bike projects sorry ( just finished building the other f3 track bike for the wife )

    Brilliant isn't is . Rest of mainland Uk raised the legal limit to 50 on all single carriageway roads in april 2015 , Yet Scotland still has the 40mph ( apart from specified roads) limit .
