Re: FZR1000 EXUP Emulsion toobs group buy

problem is... the supplier uses the mukuni part numbers not the Yamaha parts cat numbers and they state theres several different fitments for the 750

It'd be a chance to get the right ones without being able to match them up

Re: Ignition key switch

isnt it possible to remove the barrel itself and rebuild it with the same equivilent levers from another lock. I've done it on peds and matched up locks where one of a set was knackered and I wanted to retain the original key. New keys are always worth looking at too as they wear over time. Plus if ...

This in turn heated the fluid, made it expand and then lock the wheel. When things cool...

Kwak looks well smart. You've made a nice job of it :cool as for the exhausts, you may want to try this stuff. Its only a polish but it leaves a shiny silver effect and lasts for ages. The older generation used to use it on stoves etc http://shop.ebay.co.uk/items/__zebrite_W0QQ_dmdZ2?rvr_id=&crlp=62...
