Ssup peeps ....
Blade underwent 5th service which is supposed to be the last regular service. I've been slack, but anyways... it included inspection of spark plugs and really was some work just getting to them. The plugs have their individual coils attached just on top of them ! never saw anything like that before, usually the coil system is a central one with wires going to individual plugs from there... And yes, also introducing FMF Apex.... very few of you must have heard about this brand. It was suggested to me by tenhut, and boy this exhaust is awesome. Just what I needed, not too loud, just the right tone.   Mission: to reach the spark plugs.     The spark plug coil. All four has one like this. Plug is attached to this.    Now this ladies and gentlemen, is what I also did now know before. It is the heart (ecu) of C-ABS system ! Lies just between the front and rear seat, this baby saves and has saved lives of people. (saved my a$$ a couple of times too).   A cam belt tensioner.... what it does ? Not too sure, maybe what it sounds like.... but replacing it sure reduced hell lot of vibration at around 4.5k rpm. Was under warranty  This is where it is...   R1 and polo (puppy) as always not too impressed by the proceedings  After 17k kms, bike still gives me a smile whenever I just look at her and I wonder if this kind of a bike is really possible to be made by mortals ? sweet little wonder ....     forgot to add a video , sorry for the crap audio... I think acoustics got screwed because of the garage. Last edited by fireblah; 10-24-2011 at 09:11 AM. |
