What's the best way to remove shift mechanism so can clean front sprocket? Do the nuts on the shift arm have to be totally taken off or can they just be loosened?
Clunk
Salesman at used bike store said all Yama's have a clunky gearbox. Not a problem, just their nature. Hear BMW's are tons worse if that's any comfort.
Would it be worth it to get the Shorai lithium or just get an o.e. replacement like a Yuasa?
Was thinking about adding an alarm and afraid about running the battery down.
Bought 07' recently. Has MIVV slip on w/mid pipe. No engine/air box mods. Do you think I should have a power commander installed to keep from running too lean?
Windscreen
Yeah, I have the copperdawg (copperdawg.com). Seems to diminish turbulance. You will have to replace the mirrors with bar-ends or do without as screen covers the mirror mounts. Does give the bike a more aggressive look, too.
Just bought 07' FZ-1 off Craigslist. Well kept except for grungy drive train and headers. Any suggestion on bringing chain/sprocket up to showroom condition?Also would appreciate any suggestions on cleaning/polishing headers!
Thanks!! F1faniam.
