    Mystery switch

    Brilliant thanks, the bike is a 2002 full power imported from Japan a W prefix engine. The bike was a metallic grey with a dark grey engine enamel which I am looking for a match and struggling to get a touch up for, any suggestions or links to paint codes much appreciated

    Transmission oil

    Hi folks, could anyone tell me the difference between the recommended final drive oil SAE 80 gl 4 and other oils. I have an abundance of LODEXOL FS 75w-90 ad want to know if this would have any detrimental effects or in fact I can use it, thanks

    Thanks, it was easy once I got the rotor off, 3 bolts loose and the springs all fell out but back together no problem without disconnecting the wiring

    Generator rattle

    I’m actually thinking now it could be one of the rollers out of the starter clutch as it does clunk now and again on start up

    Afternoon all. Hope your keeping safe. Quick question, just finished re-commissioning the bike and noticed a rattling on tick over behind the generator cover. Not all the time but sounds like a ball bearing getting thrown around. Any ideas similar experiences? I’ve ordered a new gasket and will...

    Water pressure high

    Morning all, the refurb of my 2002 1200 continues and yet another quandary. The water pipe from pump to thermostat was tye wrapped in with a bit of rubber at the pump end. Fitted a new pipe and when it gets to pressure it starts to push the pipe out. Probably why the mod in the first place...

    Mystery switch

    Thanks everyone, lots of ideas, nothing turns off or on with the switch that I can see. Judging by the ware on the front tyres and set up of the bike I’d say it’s been raced so could in fact be NOS or v boost overide, I’ll post any findings, thanks

    Mystery switch

    Morning all, I’m just getting my new Japanese 1200 import ready for the spring and I’ve removed the sat nav / toll paying system as I don’t speak Japanese and I’ve found what appears to be a kill switch on the bars which looks like it’s never been switched off. It connects directly into the...
