Enjoy the GP Al, and make sure you wave when the cameras are on you - we'll be watching the race from Vietnam. Really enjoyed the Malaysian GP.

Cheers, SB

 

Pics AL - hope it's great man.

Had to take the carbs off my 93 ( these were the high miles ones from Malbo)
seems they are dumping too much fuel in - worse now that the weather/air
is much much cooler motor bogs down and flutters under heavy accel.

Going to pull the new jets in I put in them and install back into the stock carbs
that came with the bike as I suspect the needles in Malbo's are worn and the
diaphragm springs are a bit weak too - me thinks this will remedy the issue
along with a new less restrictive air filter

 

Prepared my replacement Cam Chain.
Now in "How To" forum link ....

yes , i think so , on that plastic 3way tee . A bit of sealant has done the trick . Not game to over tighten .

 

Update . Broken down at Yea . Bloody reg/rec . Awaiting a mate with trailer , will be towed to near Phillip Island and fixed at some stage over the weekend. I'll ride her home . First test of the relationship. .

 

That's a real bugger Al. Have you managed to get a spare R/R?

Hope the fix is easy and you have a great GP

Cheers, SB

 

In 2001 that happened to a mate on his VFR800 on the way off the Island after the race. He had to leave it at a guys house he never new from a bar of soap. He had to stay down there until it was fixed through that week. I hope it doesn't impact on your weekend to much Al. Cheers mate. I'm sort of glad I never went now as I can feel the flu coming on......coughing non stop I feel like I'm gonna pop a rib soon.

 

That and a 3 way hose T for the rad is kept spare under my seat(S) at all times
Although lately I only carry the T with the 87 - need to get another SS one from
Dub for it !
