trusty old 318 BMW:o

Kiwi making the big move to the Gold Coast at the end of the year am selling my toys so will be on the look out for a new bike when we arrive, yes another kiwi on the coast. Hoping the the Queensland raceway have some track days if not I will ave to organise some:)

Track Day Tyres Metzeler Racetec (road leagal race tyre) I run a K2 on the rear and a K0 on the front,they are dry tyres, they stick like crap to a blanket, warm up real fast and have sooooo much grip the only down side is I only get 800 to 1000 km pre set but hey I'm still alive and I call...

Welcome enjoy:D

it really pays to zip tie the plug onto the control unit as the retaining plug/clip is crap caused me all sorts of problems:mad: see my photo in the Gallery on FZ modds and pays to silicone the ignition module in place

It runs !! what I found was a poor connection @ the power comander fuel module which was suffin up the main ecu (nothing to do with the LED lamp) bring up a fault code (which was not the fault) this is what happens when you try to make a good system better, the factory plugs are first rate the...
