An overlooked component that is vital to motorcycle safety is your brakes. Brake pads are not the only thing that needs to be replaced to maintain your brake system.

Making your own Muffler/ slip on from scratch I started with a piece of 4“ aluminum tubing which I squished between two boards in the vise to a pleasing-looking oval. Then I traced the ends of the oval onto 1/2” 6061 aluminum stock and cut the end caps on the band saw. A little work with the disk sander and the end caps matched the oval canister quite well.

DogBones Dogbones raise or lower the rear of the bike. Raising the rear improves the speed and ease of turn in and braking as more weight is pushed towards the front end. I have always made mine out of 6061 T6 because it is inexpensive and strong enough. If you can get it, go with 7075 T6. It is about three times as much but is almost double the strength rating. 2024 has about a 7k lb higher rating than 6061 but isn't as easy to come by and doesn't weld very well.

I wanted to keep my graphics, so I started looking for a donor piece, which I got from a fellow enthusiast. I had to use some of the extra plastic to fill the gap, as measurements were a little off, after cutting the pieces to fit, I took a razor blade and cut the edges of the piece so that when placed into my fairing there is a V along the crack.

Fork Seal Replacement This is a general procedure for replacing the fork seals for an FZR 400 or FZR600. The fork seals for the FZR400s and FZR600s are the same and so are the procedures for replacing them. The FZR 400 and 600 forks are identical in overall length and diameter. The forks for a 600 will fit a 400 and vice versa. The only difference between the 400 and 600 forks is the length of the springs and the collar (spacer under the cap bolt). The 400 has a longer spring and short collar. …

Yamaha FZR600 There are two types of FZR600's, pre and post Dec '93. They're completely different animals. Launched in Feb 89', the Genesis had the slanted engine of the FZ750 and thou Genesis, but with four valves, not five. It had a Deltabox frame, 38mm forks, monoshock, 2-pot calipers, naff-all weight and killer steering.

Cheap Ignition Advance Okay, here's my first 'how to'. This is a cheap alternative to the $50+ offset woodruff key that Factory Pro sells to increase base ignition advance. Adding advance will give the engine more punch throughout the rev range. One advantage of this is that the engine will properly time (by the book) if you have the cams out, or if you adjust/degree cam timing..without having to remove the flywheel and re-install the stock flywheel key.

First i'll deal with the blinker/turn warning lamp, this changes polarity, power comes from the blinker's that are on, it earth's/grounds via the blinkers that are off, i.e the bulbs 2 wires are connected to right blinker & left blinker positive feeds, so we need diodes fitted. Otherwise the blinkers would act as Hazard Warning Lights.

The Pace: Separating Street from Track, Riding from Racing Racing involves speed, concentration and commitment; the results of a mistake are usually catastrophic because there's little room for error riding at 100 percent. Performance street riding is less intense and further from the absolute limit, but because circumstances are less controlled, mistakes and over aggressiveness can be equally catastrophic. Plenty of roadracers have sworn off street riding.
