Greetings, after having sold my 93 Fireblade about 4 years ago...i went ahead and bought a 3LN about 3 weeks ago... it's been running like a charm, at least I hope so... hehe It starts right away... no problems. It idles ok, doesn't die on me even in heavy traffic. The temp reaches about 3/4 of the gauge on occasion in heavy summer traffic... but very rarely. The only thing that bothers me is that when i reach about 10,000RPM... the bike doesn't pull that much anymore... it just lazily tries to go beyond 10,000rpm... is this normal? I have checked the exup valve and it's functioning ok. I'm thinking a carb synchro would fix it... or new plugs. Anyway... on to my main topic <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->... Is parts availability an issue over there? I'm from the Philippines, where "allegedly" FZR parts are hard to come by... i'm not worried since I can just order the parts online... that's IF there are still parts available. When i say parts... I mean ALL the engine internals. <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s --> What's a good online shop for our 250s? Thanks guys!
