Re: Any Good New for Economy ??
Well I ve been saving up just in case this happens. Thats why I've been busy emptying all those beer cans listening to all the doom and gloom and stashing them in the garage. Think I got it covered:) Yup to much doom and gloom in the news making the mood worse...
Garryese I did read the entire thread. Just wasn't sure if he actually had a compression tester on it, is there an issue with the compression tester. Other than bending valves it seems unlikely to loose compression on both cylinders at once.Checking valve lash should tell you if you bent a...
So did you check the plugs? Is there fuel in the oil? Have you checked spark. When your spinning it over can you feel pulses out of the exaust. Don't know about 750s but some 700s have leaked fuel past the needle and seat and flood out to the point of getting gas in the oil and depending if an...

Put a dial gauge on the clutches and see how much runout you have. These are stock Kawi belts not aftermarkets right? How many miles on the bike? How long did the origanal belt last? Other than the belt everything else is good? performance is where it should be, doesn't seem a little slow ?
I used thick plastick and poprivets with backing washers on my Twinpeaks. Cold weather is brutal on plastic if you try and flex it but I'll live with a little carnage so I can ride all winter.
