Thats the riding I do...... maybe add a few more mph tho!! LOL

Had a pretty close call on my bike today (on private property) doing about 120 -140 (ie max speed on klr 600), throttle just went dead and motor felt weird and then conked out so i let off throttle and down shifted to roll start it (must of gone down two gears or something) the rear wheel went into a compression lock for about two seconds and back came out a bit..... Damn close call...after that bike was running fine --0 it was really weird as i have never had anything like this happen b4? maybe it was just a bubble in the fuel lines or something?

Any of you bike riders had this happen to you before?

I think next time i will just hold the clutch and pull over (bit safer mez thinks!!)

happened on my zx7R, iced carbs.............. common problem with the late 90's ZXR's.

Winters weekend day, cool air, long ride, loss of engine power, down a few cogs to slow it down, lock rear wheel (where was the slipper clutch in the 90's LOL), big slide, no power, BAM on it comes with compression, black snakey all down the road (oh and black undies too). Pull to side of road and let the carbs warm up again.

Brendan this is perhaps the best street cycling vid i have ever seen: its a cut down segment of pascal on le Perlipherique ie its the highlights from a lap around paris in 12 minutes: this guy can REALLLLLYY ride!!!!!!!!!!! He defenitely has a death wish!!!!!!!

WOOHOOO Got the 6.1 Hemi 300C :D in today. there are only subtle changes from the standard 5.7 (like the extra 68kw) the main thing are the 20 inch wheel with monsterous brembo brakes. I would easily get one of these beasts over a FPV or HSV. Got to say this is one of the only good things about my job :P

Can't wait to get the jeep equivelant 0-100 in 5 seconds - take that Holden a 2 tonne 4wd is faster than the GTS

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
