    steering stem bearings replacement

    I found tapered roller bearings to be smoother and providing a better feel. Yamaha is also uses a sketchy seal in that area, prone to rusting. If you have it apart you may as well replace them.

    I'll just leave this right here

    My Stelvio skid plate saw good use too. Mine was more from sliding down rocks.

    At second look the header needs to move to one side or the other so it doesn't get smooched.

    WOW! THAT is what I want in an Adventure bike. Man, that thing is cool. What is it, an FZ9?

    New Yamaha Project???

    I had it made by Revival Cycles. It's hand formed aluminum. I'll posted some more photos of it and the new tail bracket.

    Tail piece. :) Homage to the Bob Cook racer the bike is inspired off of. :)

    2016 MotoGP Discussion Thread *SPOILERS*

    You will. The best part is you can watch whenever you wish, and play it over and over.

    Why are Harley's so different?

    Because their pants don't have seats...

    FZ1in...... TX?

    That's a nice ride. I love the section out of Lago Vista, however I always seem to get stuck behind a wagon train of minivans! I'll check with Rachelle on the time to eat, then we can back plan from there.

    Bike pulling left - FZ1N

    I've got a slight curvature to my spine. Any 2 wheel thing does not track straight with my hands off my bars. Perhaps?

    Dyno Day scheduled

    Sounds like a great combo to me. I found that after my flash there were only a couple of points of tuning, here and there, on the fuel map. Minimal at best. Again I'm curious to hear what you learn as there is no one answer.

    I'm thinking your house to Inks Lake State Park, to Oatmeal, to Nameless Road, to Lime Creek Road to my house. Then we'll cook something! :)

    He looks pretty professional to me. I'm looking forward to how it turns out. What kind of mods have you made?

    I know from many years of having a wide variety of bikes tuned, including the FZ1. I recommend you do a bit of searching here.

    The map that comes with the bike '06 - '13 or so, is terrible. A proper tune, preferably flash makes a world of difference. Both in total performance and response.
