Question time

The place to come to share your technical expertise, or just find out what the little springy thing is that's just pinged out of sight under the work-bench.

You're a champion technical advisor but I'm concerned you have too much time to kill.

No I have those, I'll have to take a photo tomorrow and show you which ones are leaking.

Looking
like the tubeswith the revving up problem because I was quite confident I'd cleaned out the pilot jets and on re-inspection I'm still confident I have.

Best place for tubes, Ebay?

Pirelli Diablo

Post by kboehringer »

For what it is worth....

I run Pirelli Diablo Rosso III's on my FZR.

INCREDIBLE GRIP! If you aren't throwing sparks.....YOU'RE NOT LOW ENOUGH! The Pirelli's grab FANTASTIC.....NO worries when the sparks are flying!

Not sure if they offer these tires in the UK but they are properly priced and I don't believe I'll ever buy anything else for my FZR

Definitely, just a shame the winning bidder hasn't contacted me and hasn't replied to my messages.

Well done Mark. 👍
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.
