Re: Passenger Seat Removal

turn the key -- grab the seat strap (if it still has one) and sake rattle n roll (push down and lift) -- if the key turns it should finally lift off.

Re: I think i got the shaft

MO allows you do buy a "donor" vehicle and peice the two together to make one road-worthy vehicle. If the DMV can't use the VIN to give a title (I understand the legal issues on their side, but they can when it was last registered and work from that end), make sure you have a Bill of Sale as stated ...

Re: FZR White Gauges - Interested? Need help.

Tim, well Nik told me about your request for news, sorry it has taken this long to say something but as mentioned elsewhere I am "out & about" before surgery.

Re: FZR White Gauges - Interested? Need help.

just got my own vinyl cutter last week.
I'm gonna play around with getting some fresh clear acrylic, painting it white from behind, and attaching vinyl letters to the top (or cuts on top of white vinyl for the front) and light everything from behind with white LEDs.

Any word from your guy yet?

Re: 660 not liking the choke

My 91 seemed to do what yours is doing. It all ran fine when I picked up the bike, then I ran cleaner through a fuel tank a month later. That's when the problems all started.

My FZRs

White one is mine (91 FZR rebuilt from ground up) Black one is my son's (94 FZR needs fork seals and carbs redone - but he is leaving for the military soon, so we are waiting and just enjoying the days I don't have college to ride).
