I am now considering getting an ignition module since I have read it helps with the mpg and the bike will run cooler. Before I make the purchase I was hoping for some people...

    It took awhile but I got my PCV installed. I used the map suggested by Dynojet which was the map for a Yoshinura TRC Full exhaust with a stock or aftermarket filter. I am a newbie wen it comes to the fueling maps but noticed that the map seemed to have added fuel where other maps reduced fuel. I...

    suggested power commander map

    Hi All, I am currently planning to buy a PCV for my 2006 FZ1. I currently have a Yoshi full exhaust, K&N filter and graves flies. I have not yet modified the flies, most of the maps I saw have modified flies. What is a good map for me? Should I stick with stage 2 or 3?

    Racetech springs settings?

    I did the swing swap today. I guess the owner before had done a fork rebuild. The oil was a red color and there were tool marks. I also noticed the difference of spring length was no as large. The springs were only about 5mm different in length. Were the forks from a 2009 and 2006 different...

    Racetech springs settings?

    How much did you cut the spacer? I saw the post where you had to go back and cut 6-8mm. Does that mean initially you should have cut the spacer to match the new spring?

    Hello All, This week I will be replacing my stock fork springs with Racetech springs that are 1.0kg. I chose the replacement in part due to the forks needing an oil change and sine I weigh 88kg with street gear. My rear suspension is a Matris aftermarket shock. I am a suspension newbie...

    Twitching idle and stalling?

    Hi Guys, I could use some advice. I have a 2006 with 90,000km. I think I may need spark plug changed but want to see if there may be other issues. Recently I noticed that at times took some extra tries to start my engine after filling up the tank. No issues when the engine is cold. Today...

    Tuning advice

    Thanks for the advice on Ivan's flash. I am still actively riding on the weekends so I cannot afford to have the ECU sent in just yet. Based on the mail it will take about a 2-3 week turnaround time. So should I go ahead and install a power commander until it gets truly cold and my bike...
