    2014 Yamaha FZ9!

    I ask the stealership today... they don't expect them on the floor for another few weeks. They only ordered 5 and 2 or 3 of them appenrently have down payments already... good try Mr. Salesman! :screwy: Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2

    How cold is too cold?

    Little trick for the fogging visor. A 2" strip of duct tape roll like a joint with the sticky side out. Stick it on the bottom opening edge of the helmet then close the visor on it. The little gap will keep the visor clean. Open wheel racing thing... work good. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337...

    How cold is too cold?

    For that week or two a year that it gets in the 40's here in Florida... I use the car. LOL well, joking apart. I have a jacket that I bough a size too big. Once all the layer in (rain layer help a lot to keep the cold wind out) and add a sweater I can ride for a while. A 1/2 decent set of hand...

    2014 Yamaha FZ9!

    I'm trying hard to scrape some change and get the FZ9. Planning of doing the same thing I did with the FZ6R and come up with a cheaper exhaust solution. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2

    Will a Four Stroke Motor Damage with Lean Condition?

    E10 str. Fuel ratio is 14.1:1 compare to the old 14.7:1 I tune my ride to 13.5-13.8 in the cruising range. 12.8 to 13.0 run good on the bottom end and make the throttle a little smother. 7% fuel trim in the PCV is 1 fuel ratio. (14.0 to 13.0:1) The worst part of running lean is detonation...

    Would I be crazy....

    I always like the VFR. I was a hair close to get one when I bought my 6R. Brand new 25th anniversary was sitting on the floor. It all came down to sticker price... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2

    2014 Yamaha FZ9!

    Old saying... HP sell engines, torque win races! LOL Agree, no where near to compare the FZ6 (who was a nice ride) to a FZ9, or FZ8 in that matter. Last numbers were 112 WHP and 57 ft.lb on the FZ8... still need to get numbers on the last cam timing and tune with my mid-ship exhaust...

    2014 Yamaha FZ9!

    I stop by the stealership today, they are hoping to have one on the floor by next week. I'll go again next week. I'm 50/50 between a 13 FZ8 and FZ9...

    Major Engine Failure

    Cool, but that doesn't explain the oil... remove the other plugs and change oil at least. If you are the luckiest man on earth... maybe the injector just flood the engine... Check your oil level! If it piss enough fuel in the crankcase the oil might level should be very high and have flow out...

    Major Engine Failure

    HUm. Not quite sure what Ivan does with the flash but look like there tune for HP and response... more timing advance combine with lean map is a recipe for disaster for sure. That's a speculation... I have no idea of the flash numbers or map he's using. But getting 46MPG out of a FZ1... I don't...

    Major Engine Failure

    Not saying that's what happen but I've seen many engine blowing up over the years. Oil coming out of exhaust is not a good sign. Lean condition increase the combustion temperature to a point where you melt a hole in a piston. It doesn't take long... might not even happen all at one. I saw you...

    Major Engine Failure

    Ewwww! Doesn't look good at all!!! To get enough oil in there to piss off the exhaust it's more than an valve seal or blow by... look like you might have burn a piston or something like that. 06 were FI or carbs? Look one injector or one carb might have stop working and lean out one cylinder...

    Danmoto jisu exhaust

    I put 40K miles on my cheap Viper can. I changed it for the Danmoto Jisu because I got tired to look at it.
