Re: fzr600rrsp
bike is looking good mate, glad to see you kept hold of it in the end and working through the issues that arise.
The suspension will make a huge difference I bet

Re: fzr600rrsp
Well, suspension back and it's easy to see why it was handling poorly.
200ml less oil per leg than spec, and piss thin too. Now 15w oil and 80ml air gap. New seals and good to go
Shock opened up and frothy oily tango was in there. All rebuilt and regassed.

Re: fzr600rrsp
That should be a lot tighter. Is that small spring in the forks for top out ?

Re: fzr600rrsp
Suspension was near perfect. A little softly sprung on the rear meant having to wait before throttling on corner exit due to the bike squatting and pushing wide, but compression damping helped a little. Front was mint.

Re: fzr600rrsp
Few videos,not in time order, of the Anglesey classic bike trackday.
Starting to get back to grips with a sportsbike after so long on naked bikes and sitting up.
Still not at full race pace, and was being respectful of other riders on track,but starting to feel happy in the bike, and mojo appears to be back.

Re: fzr600rrsp
New ali clock bracket and koso copy clock fitted (needs finishing off) and now got no fault codes on the clocks. Was showing code 8, fuel sender, and no matter what was tried, couldn't sort it. Turns out the Cdi was kaput but it's running the bike fine, and never showed fault before. Ah well, was only a tenner for a new One, so all good.
