    Soltek + FZ1 mirrors = confusion

    I found a thread that showed kaitsdads install. That wasn't really what I was looking for, then he directed me to a better thread of the install. That makes more sense than what i had bouncing around inside my head. I did read somewhere that someone was putting a layer of inner tube rubber...

    Soltek + FZ1 mirrors = confusion

    Anyone install the soltek brackets AND the FZ1 mirrors? My mounting studs are too short to make this work with any threads showing. Also, the stainless steel mounting fittings replace the ones that come from the factory, right? How do I get the old ones out of there?

    I was a pacifist til today

    There seem to be alot of those punks in Kentucky. There were some firing rocks or something off one of the pedestrian bridges that spans I-64 on the west side of downtown Louisville. My car is still pretty new to be taking a rock, but luckily for me they were born Kentuckians, and can't throw...

    paint/? it black

    on the exhaust; "black chrome"? I think Yam had some 'Specials' around 1980 that had the black chrome on them. Maybe it didn't burn off.

    Downloading videos from you-tube?

    Anyone know how to download a video from you-tube? I live in the sticks, and I'm lucky to have electricity, but not lucky enough to have broad band. I do have the satellite 'broad band', but it kinda sucks too. i have a 175 meg quota in 8 hours, so i can't watch big movies at home, so I'd...

    Gen II Front Cowl removal?

    Yes! I downloaded a scanned tech bulletin that told how to remove the cowl to replace the speedometer. I can't seem to find it online right now, but if you still can't find it by the time I get home, I'll e-mail the pdf to you. ADMIN Note: Not from this board please. Do not engage in piracy...

    07A not starting...

    Does Yamaha sell a kick start kit? Then you could change a side cover on the engine and add a kick lever. Ta-Da... that'll be a $50 consulting fee thank you.

    Using the GenII hazard switch for other than 'hazards'

    Well, I'm hoping to use the hazard switch to run a relay to power the solteks. Nothing special like interlocking it with the standard high beam switch, just simply on/off. I'm ass-u-me-ing the hazard switch has one lead going to hot (yami fuse-box) and the other side of the switch goes to a...

    Using the GenII hazard switch for other than 'hazards'

    Well, I'm finally about ready to install the solteks, and I was thinking about where to put a switch so it would be quick to flip off. Looking at that hazard switch I decided that I might be able to use it to flip a relay for the solteks. But, I'd like to know more before I start ripping it...
