    Brake Bleeding

    Hmmmm..fresh brake fluid:icon_beer: Now I have some rear brakes, but they are soft, so I think more bleeding is required. Thank God the pistons finally pushed out, I was wearin' my hands out pumpin' that vacuum handle..I had to do one side at a time, cause I ain't got no T piece. I did a...

    Brake Bleeding

    How can you bleed the rear brake. I changed the caliper, and lost all brake pressure. Adding fluid isn't helping, I can't even get the brake pedal to pump up.

    Seat Grab Handles

    Hello, I am looking for a set of seat grab handles for an 2001 FZ1. 2001-2005 handles wil probably work, if I'm not mistaken. Color Blue, if possible, but any color will do. These things go for $192/ea from Yamaha :jaw drop:

    Fuel Sending Unit Issue

    At some point someone must have changed this gas tank. The bike had been salvaged from the insurance company at auction. The engine is from an 02' and the fairing is new. What type of gasket material should I use to make the gasket for the sending unit. I can't find the oem gasket anywhere?

    Fuel Sending Unit Issue

    So yesterday afternoon I decided to check the gas tank and see if I could figure out what the float was doing. I get out a nice little battery-less flashlight and put on my reading glasses so I can peer down into the depths of my tank and locate the float...looking...looking...well, guess what...

    exhaust

    ...is that jetting for more fuel or less? The bike I have was owned by a local, I am not sure if he did any tuning on the carbs. How can you know if the bike is running right? The old plug color check doesn't work well with unleaded gas. The bike certainly seems to pull like a tractor when you...

    Overheating

    ...As it turns out, I needed to add about a pint of antifreeeze (50/50) to the radiator and also put some in the overflow, which was bone dry. The bike stopped overheating:flash:

    Fuel Sending Unit Issue

    Good Morning, The fuel gauge is on "E" with the low fuel light illuminated...no amount of fuel in the tank will move it. I have checked the wiring on my fuel tank and gauge, but I need to verify the functionality of the sending unit. How can I troubleshoot the sending unit and gauge?

    Faulty Fuel Gauge; Intermittent Tach

    7k Error Code : This is an error code for your EXUP valve. The 7k error code tells you that it's not opening properly. Normally an easy fix, either the cables are too loose, or the valve itself needs to be cleaned and lubed. go here: http://www.cartestsoftware.com/fz1/exupmaintenance.html...

    ...Thank you for all the input, I'm thinking the thermostat might need changing, since the fan is working okay.
