  1. this radio shack one looks to be open or closed based on which spades you connect to. aaand radio shack is finally bankrupt out of town
  2. why would they stamp both kinds all with the same number?
  3. motocat12

    Equifux

    Wow, what a mess. hope the executives see some time. Can I call SS, tell them my card's been stolen and get a new number.
  4. I ordered a ducati brake switch. before checking... it too is mirrored Looking at a ducati forum where they suggest an unsealed 250vac radio shack switch(dual side mount). it has 3 spades.... I bet these 1022 switches do too under the epoxy. my old open switch has wires coming out in different place than the new closed switch. The mirror mount tab thing may be an axial/radial lever "design".
  5. was going to use it to replace the clutch switch preventatively. the clutch switch Also says 1022 but is a mirror image with the mount tabs on the opposite side
  6. My rear brakes (lights) were always on last week. I unplugged the front switch and they went off and the rear worked normal. Couldn't get the front micro switch working on a bench test. Ordered a replacement switch with the same number stamped on it. BUT it has a flexible metal tab that covers the plastic plunger often comes up as a clutch switch but I've seen them as mirror images with the mounting opposite. This one appeared to work when i tested it to see if if it mattered which prong when where after I removed the plug to shrink wrap it because the wire was a bit short. Then when I plugged it in the brakes are on normal and off with the lever pulled. I know there are normal open and normal closed switches But the Brake lever pushes the plunger by default and and releases with the lever pulled.
  7. Buy another member's bike again before you change your mind and get the r6
  8. Tonik's rear doesn't know the meaning of "working too hard" going in sideways on the other hand. A 4k bike may be ready for suspension work. So you bought tire too good for the shocks?
  9. also try gearing the fz up in back for better acceleration and lower top 120+ speed(may need longer chain) or -1 front +2 back
  10. sounds like the ignition
  11. you may also be able to fit a quick turn throttle tube with a bigger cable radius so it feels like the engine has more in it at the throttle opening you're used to.
  12. Was the clutch pack removed? positive everything is in the correct alignment? want another set of hands/eyes?
  13. "***riders must be 25 years of age" keep doing free demos, but how is this ageist discrimination allowed in this day and age.
  14. Consumer report say; all wheel drive not as good as (but better with) snow tires.
  15. ^Doe's his knee pucks not his kneecaps. Short bent arms...?
  16. I've had luck with nylon flexible hose from dorman with crimp clamps https://www.amazon.com/EnDuraLast-FP-HoseKit-Flexible-Fuel-Hose/dp/B00LPX1JHY http://www.autozone.com/fuel-systems/fuel-line-repair/dorman-5-16-in-8-mm-x-12-in-with-barbs-flexible-nylon-fuel-line-repair/193135_0_0
  17. I did better after I let some of the 40 psi out that I thought would be faster. Not on pure washboard trails.
  18. you might be able to check it with a dental mirror and flashlight
