When I go riding, the temperature gauge usually reads about half way. Once it hits half way, it rockets up to the redzone. After I turn off the bike, let the needle fall, and turn it back on, without riding, the needle sits at the middle. Is this a problem with the spring or the thermostat? Any spri...

Great job! I love it. Why is the poor thing in the snow! Mine looks like that, except with pollen on it right now... I hate spring for that reason

Wow! looks great! Do you know, by any chance, what year/model seat that is? Beautiful bike!

I installed NGK cr9's. the bike ran the next day perfectly. I have no tools to check the psi, but I know the previous owner was not big on maintenance.. It probably needs a valve job. do you all know a good place to buy somewhat cheap carb sync tools? my fzr manual is still on the way.. so far I hav...

I revved her up to 8.5 grand.

Oh really now?! I live In lewisville area. I went to Reagan High School. I definitely know where king is. I used to go down to the RC track all the time over there. Wow, this is really cool! I could definitely use someones help

Nooo! I literally ran her twice since I changed the plugs. Crud :[

Alrighty, so I started her up. Warmed up fine, revved her a little high, plume of black smoke puffed out, and now won't start.. hah what did I do to her?!

Alrighty! does anyone know the measurement of the tap needed? I have an 89 fizzer. I'm no machinist, but the machine shop department at work should probably have something I can use.

Alright, so I discovered the cross threaded spark plug when I changed the plugs out when I got the bike, Lord knows how a person could do this.. Anywho, without the airbox, the bike cranked right up, first try, no put puts, all go. I replaced the spark plug, but noticed that it sits 1/4 of an inch t...

Is there an easy way to do this? or a trick? I have been trying to put this SOB back on, and every time I get one side fitted on, the other side pops off.. the clamps are all loose. I don't believe I have ever lost my lid over something so seemingly simple..

I recently purchased the motorcycle, so I don't know when the last valve job was done. The motorcycle is at 19,xxx. I took out the spark plugs, and they were carbon fouled, so it's definitely running rich. Im going to save up for a couple weeks, I guess, and have the motorcycle properly tuned. As mu...

Fuel lines are not compromised, all the way from the petcock thru the fuel pump. Sprayed engine starter over the carbs and some carb cleaner. Engine turned over with a hard time and some backfires, took about 10minutes to run smoothly after that. I'm still not sure whats going on. I recently just st...

Of course! pet cock is on, choke is on, fuel pump clicks. Ill get a couple "put puts" from the bike but thats about it

Charged the battery, getting a reaction with the pump! still no fuel though, choke is on. I havent a clue whats going wrong
