  • XS 1100 fuse is constantly broken

    Hello all, I inherited a Yamaha Xs1100 which I wanted to get out of the garage to wash today. The battery was empty, so I bridged you, and helped you a bit with the start pilot. She ran as well. Since the brakes were also a bit tight I strangled them when driving out. After that I wanted to bridge again, but now always this fuse (photo) flies out. I separate the plug from the starter relay remains the fuse in, but I have no ignition. Can mi Help someone?

  • Yamaha tracer 9 GT

    Hello friends , maybe you itch little but since yesterday I am the owner of a new tracer 9 GT … The decision was hard to find the right motorcycle . I don’t lack strength but because of my body size of 176 cm I am limited in the choice of motorcycles . Even then I found the tracer 900 a successful motorcycle but somehow decided to the Triumph Sport 1050 . At the end I drove the big Explorer . If it’s around co mfort and travel fitness goes the Explorer was unbeatable. As far as ranking is concerned a horror. Anyway now it’s the tracer 9 GT and up to 3 things that bother me with the 9 GT (that’s but whining at high level) I am brightly thrilled. I mean the perfect motorcycle there is not but for my purposes really optimal. In the sense I wish you all a good ride. Take care of you.

  • Yamaha XJ 600 Diversion Clutch characteristics and handlebar flaps

    Hello all, I bought a 97er diversion today. A little less than 70,000 km. The previous owner told me the clutch was made new. On the return trip 2 things noticed: 1. With all the other motoor bikes I have, the 1st course goes in with a full “crack”. With this not. I just push down (sometimes it doesn’t go directly) and N goes out. Very gently. 2. The clutch comes on the last cm at the handle. And I can switch without any problems without having to domes. So Sometimes it hangs a bit too, then I have to press the foot lever several times. Is this all normal? How can I adjust the clutch that comes after the first cm on the lever? Furthermore, I noticed that if I take my hands briefly from the lemkrad, it starts me directly with handlebar flaps. So man can’t drive free-handed. What could be the cause here?

  • Lithium-ion battery from Shido

    Moin Moin, it is traditionally the time in the year in which one deals with the topic of starter battery. Mostly because the old one has given up the spirit. I got a Li-Ion battery from Shido last year and meanwhile also covered a few kilometers with the good piece. Conclusion: conspicuously inconspicuous. But what you notice directly: the XSR 900 starts better than with the old one. Where she has previously allowed herself a starter turn more, the good one starts right now. Vortei le: -Higher starter current -kaum Self-discharge – weighs only 30% of the old battery -charging status indicator Disadvantages: -less battery capacity -under -10°C no longer to be used Who wants to read it more about because of how/why/why, here is the detailed report.

  • FZR 1000 engine damage

    Hello guys, I’m new here and I need your help!!! I probably have an engine damage with my 1000 FZR Bj. 89. Had it not run for a few weeks and when I had brought it back to run after several attempts, super much white smoke came out of the exhaust, which smelled like oil. The cooling water level also remained constant, but became quite hot. Now I am expanding the engine and I have also discovered a lot of oil on the spark plugs. Will the cylinder head seal be, will you? Can you give me now perhaps a few tips on how I can best make myself to the engine. What I should renew, check and consider. Where do I get the spare parts best? Thank you

  • Incredible but true, Fazer 1000

    I finally had time to pick up my new machine yesterday, it all worked smoothly, I drive the first 30 km (of course very slow) and notice something clapping in front. I hold on to control everything apparently, no loose part nothing. So continue driving. After 80 km the flap will be more and more, stop again… still nothing found, only the chain is arduously loose. Well off home, “Master should check the machine again”, I thought. On the way home I notice the brakes in front become soft!!? “After about 100 km the brakes become soft?”, I asked myself the question, did I have to make a mistake with the decision? Maybe I should have bought a KAWA or Honda after all? While I constantly questioned my decision in the head, the flapping became louder. With about 30-40 km per hour I finally got to sleep. Motorcycle in the yard, no, no, no, I can not believe that! I had to get rid of the wheel at the front with a screw, I had to get rid of the front wheel.

  • Yamaha R6 bjh99 goes out at about 60 degrees

    Hi together. Hope to get tips here. My r6 goes out at about 60 degrees and can only start again after it is cooled down.. Fuel is inside and is pumped. Engine ventilation hose I had off. Comes minimal smoke out. Air filter cleaned. Carburettor cleaned. Spark comes to all 4 candle plugs. Think some electronic part is too warm ???? It runs super at the beginning. So from 58 degrees it turns slightly higher and then less … and then nothing more …. I am grateful for tips. Also upload a video and link this here.

  • Motorcycle fork Stand pipe coating possible?

    Hi, as you can see in the appendix, I am concerned with the stand pipes (= chromed pipes), which I had dismantled today. Can one anodize the two chromed stand pipes or similar? The painting or powdering would make sense, since the stand pipe must fit exactly into the submersible tube and the paint/powder coating is too thick. I am grateful for any helpful answer.
