Well I hope the weather is going to be good and it's still starting from Honiton as I've just booked a room at the Premier Inn. Myself and Mrs Cuckoo will be there. Mrs Cuckoo will be pillion on this occasion. She has recently passed her test (rides a Sv650) but she didn't fancy the 3hour ride from ...

I had my trusted 2006 FZ6 for a few years now and i've almost always clutchless changed gear on the way up. Lately in 3rd or 4th it occasionally jumps out of gear (back to the previous gear) as soon as i've changed. My question is is it more likely to be the clutch that needs looking at or the gears...

Brilliant day once again. Well half a day after I decided to take the bike for a skating lesson. All superficial fixable damage. Ill ache for a while but hay i'll be up and out again soon. Thanks to everyone that came over offering help and drugs!!
Thanks Si appreciate your efforts once again.

Weather looks dry, leaving soon. See you tomorrow.

New map loaded, sensor removed and blanked, smile on face again. Cheers all

I've finally fixed the problem so I thought I'd post it just in case anyone stumbles across the post with the same problem. IT WAS THE O2 SENSOR When I first bought the bike it had a power commander fitted, at the time I didn't know too much about them so removed it. While trying loads of different ...

*Update 2* Long story short, when the dealer stripped the engine they found and showed me pictures of the cams that were shot so I've done a complete engine swap. During which I put an angle grinder though my little finger.... time to recoop back on track. Anyway finished the swap, re set the tps......

I work every other weekend... guess what I'm working and used up all my holidays. Meant to be at Brands the week end before ( next weekend) As I put an angle grinder though my little finger which put paid to re-fitting my daytona engine looks like i'm missing that too.... Oh well summers coming....

2009 Hi thanks for all the input on previous thread on my stuttering Daytona. During the ongoing investigation I found 'shavings' in the oil and it turns out the cam and cam holder is shot. I dont believe this is the root of the problem but it has to be fixed. After getting a quote for the job I dec...

*UPDATE* New plugs, cleaned air filter, new battery. Checked electrical connections. Checked hoses. Changed fuel and redexed new tank full. Still no change. So off to the main dealer. They ran diagnostic EMRF. It indicated possible injector fault or tight valve clearences. They found sim loose and a...

Plugs look normal but going to change them anyway as the bike is stripped. You probably have a map or maf sensor in the airbox, could be worth checking Yep Intake Air temperature sensor I'll clean all the connectors. Think a proper outlet on the tumble dryer might help. Stable doors and horses come ...
