Re: Friendly Ride - Sunday FEB 22nd
Im guessing 6 and 7's have one too but theres a little coolant filter under the carbs that should be cleaned out to supposedly 'prevent' carb icing, though it does help.Pop it out the little bottle and blow it out with compressed air and youre good to go.Varcon wrote:Definatly a kawasaki fault then, as mine was doing it to and pissing me rigfht off !

Re: Friendly Ride - Sunday FEB 22nd
Thanks for a brilliant ride out. Weather was pretty darn good and managed to get home in time to put the R6 under the hose, which subsequently broke shortly afterwards
the hose that is. So hand cleaning today, which will be fun!
Was good to fit faces to the names as well. There were some right-dirty helmets out there too... ooh er missus.

Bit late but just to say nice to meet and put names to faces or vice versa
Had a good day ourselves me and Graham and it was nice having Jade's company up to Launceston. Great day all round! 
Cut me in half and I'v got Suzuki written right through me!
