sicklle and canuckFZR:
if you look closely in the picture with the engine hoist in it, you can see whats left of the carbs, k&n's, and jetkits I bought from you guys, like, a frickin few weeks ago
all my spare parts for the FZR were in there, luckily she wasnt, but if I had finished the valve adjustment on the Ninja last weekend she woulda been since its been raining the last few days
so thank god for small favors
the lowers for the FZR were there, including the middle V fairing, a YZF750 clutch master/slave, exup carbs with stage 3 jet kit, dual K&N's, the manifolds, exup airbox and k&n, spare Dj stage 1 and 3 jet kits, my spare jets for my genny carbs, my spare cltuch plates and barnett metal discs, spare clutch springs etc etc etc etc
the fairings bother me alot, and the carbs, because I moved them to the garage, THIS PAST WEEKEND

those lines are me with my jaw dropped! I've had nightmares of that my friend. I'm soooooooo Sorry.
We had our home burned to the ground when I was 11years old so I know a little bit about what you're going through. Again, Sooooo Sorry.

Yes Yes I know, I said, I'm building a project YZF1070
Basement is done now, 850 finished and gone...
Gotta get the new siding up on the house.
Fixing the FZ1 up, cleaning up garage and then I might even begin

none of it was life/death to keep the bike running, just a pile of spares to ensure minimal downtime of courseFZRDude wrote:Dude..... that is so sad.
List the parts you need and we'll start looking again.....
and my 'good' lowers, they weren't great, but were complete
mostly what sucked is that all my EXUP carb project parts gone, exup carbs, DJ stg 1 and 3 kit, k&n's, air box w/k&n and clamps, boots, metal intakes off the head........
guess I won't be doing that project ever prolly, just get a good jetkit to replace the junk DJ kit in my bike now......or buy jets and try and and sort em out myself....

the house did catch fire, but its not minehotcam wrote:Man that sucks total . Glad you and your house didn't go up. Bulk sympathy...
rental garage, the owners ins is investigating and confirmed electrical as the source, and is working on pinpointing exact cause.
It was either the outlet, or maybe an aircompressor, but the air compressor is 99% of the time turned off.
I hope its his wirings fault, then I may be able to get $$ back from him and not have to pay his deductable on teh garage
