A place in East Kilbride called Central Scotland Powder coaters....wheels, frame, sub frame, yokes and both peg sets ..£200 ... good deal I think!

Finally found the time to get the engine back in the frame... forks, swing arm and wheels next..

Update on the carb front for anyone that's interested.....it turns out the needles advised in Haynes manual are from a FZR400. The actual part number from mikuni for a 1987 FZR 1000 Genesis is J8-5CZ02.

Yes....we are watching/listening.

The £200 for the coating was a good price !
I paid £180 for just a TDM 3VD frame and swinger 3 years ago and wheels use/waste a lot of powder.

Haynes got it wrong you say ?...........well I never !

Here's the carb list for 37mm carbs, from mikuni...

All sections of the forum are like this now I'm afraid, Schmo.......

That facebook has a lot to answer for IMO.

Have you a copy of the Yamaha manual ?

Only the Haynes manual which I'm now using as a pad to sit frame on....all its good for.. lol

I know what you mean re; quality of information in the Haynes.
Far too many models attempted in one publication.

I looked in the WIKI last night but the "megaupload" link for the 87/88 Yamaha manual is broken.
(I think the hosting site was made illegal years ago and closed actually)

Yeah I found the same when trying find manual....i will be able to finish no problem it's just the small details that if not done right at the right time could mean a partial strip down again when I come to start the beast.

I believe it is courtesy of Paul (Stig) who owns the Exup forum in UK and IIRC has contributed to some of your posts on here.
