    Mate this is the noise I was trying to describe.. It gets louder towards the end of the video..


    you can tell when I hear it... It sounds like something is rubbing together when on the throttle..

    Sounds rythemic like the chain rubbing on the chain guard.

    i have taken off the new exhaust system to have a little bit of welding from our gun welder at work :p Then when hole free and cleaned right up it will go back on the bike.

    The yellow tank is foooked it constantly springs leaks. And the yellow fairings had a horrible paint job straight over clear coat without rough up and is cracked and lifting.

    Also this way the other 250 I have can go complete when it's for sale.

    Alright lads finally some work in the zxr shed, I may have diagnosed the air intake leak that i have been searching for on and off since i have had this damn bike! I pulled the plugs they all look the same i was wondering if one might show up as leaner then the others. It hadn't so i ruled out a rogue carby boot leak.

    It all points back to the bloody hose i replaced the vacuum lines with having expanded around a t junction because of heat! DAMN SUPERCHEAP AUTO JUNK! So new hose and reset everything i had set too rich and I might have a goer.

    I was meant to work on it today but was bedridden with a hangover LOL.

    Just started the old girl properly for the first time in a few months. jesus christ i forgot how loud it is haha. Even running rough it sounds amazing.

    It was puffing some blue smoke at first which settled after a few big revs.

    She is comin out of the shed tomorrow for some work to be done
