No idea why the 360 cam has that line. It didn't show up on anything except the KZfaq upload and I didn't spot it. Hopefully it's not too annoying! Anyway, how do you think the bike sounds now :)

Sounds really nice, pleased the mods are working for you 😊 The screen seems to benefit you on street enough to leave it on, I originally thought don't bother for street, but after your experience probably worth doing... OC - My old gsxf is staying stock. If I ever get a Z900RS 🙏 I'd probably replicate all your mods. Cheers, Andy.

It's such a good bike, really happy the mods just made it better for me. :) Yep, definitely takes more air off me than I thought it would! You should get a Z900RS for reasonable money soon used!! Do it :P

Success! On the track it is sure to make life easier. Everything you have done to the bike makes perfect sense for your intended use. It certainly does sound wonderful when you wind it up. There is a trend in wider society that just isolates people from tool use. The staples of education woodwork and metalwork are disappearing. This around us that break are not designed to be dismantled and repaired. When I was a kid I was forever taking things to pieces to find out how they worked. Dismantling computers and phones is just not the same. Cars generally are designed to hide all the working parts from view let alone being able to work on them. I just bought a new, second hand bike today! What would I like to change ? The exhaust, which though it is stock is very, very loud...... It is a Keeway V250Fi. A fun ride out. Thank you. 👍

Yes, currently the rear end is VERY stiff so need to drop more preload, we got caught in rain and it was very frisky :D It does, and the nice thing is it's very much mild mannered when cruising, really really happy with the bike now. Yeah it's baffling. It won't be long before a lot less people will be doing things for themselves and that makes me sad. As if I didn't do all my own work on bikes I MIGHT be able to afford one bike max. I'd be missing a lot of what I love doing. I was the same as a child. Modern cars generally don't interest me much as they're very hard to work on. Oh nice, congrats!! Keeways took off in Ireland too, seem a solid wee bike! Best of luck with it :)

Seeing it in the sunlight, the screen does have lines that complement the bike. In any case, if it’s effective, that’s what matters here. Maybe it’s not completely integrated with the bike’s lines, but it’s not like the giant, upright windshields they put on cruisers, either!

Yeah I actually don't mind it at all now, definitely jarring at first sight but only since I've stared at the Z so much 😂 Oh yeah I hate looking through a windshield even tho they work.

I got excited when you said you're in North Carolina! I'm nearby in Erwin, NC with a business in Fuquay-Varina. I've been considering this tune for my new z900rs cafe for the throttle issue. Anyway, it'd be cool to see you around. Thanks for the info! Also: Defund the HOA! 😂

I really appreciate all your videos . I just bought 2018. Did the flash helped with the shifting? Mine is so clumsy/ clunky.
@TheGorillaBiker 5 күн бұрын
Glad they're of some use :) It did a little, however check your chain and front sprocket in particular as well. I was also going to test a shift linkage stabiliser bar soon that apparently helps!
@goldfish8196 5 күн бұрын
@@TheGorillaBiker I believe I've watched all your zed videos so far - more than once. lol. They are really helpful. I'm planning to change the front sprocket to a 16 so I will replace sprockets and chain. Thank you for the heads up!

first time im hearing about the cam swap! what do you know about it so far?
@TheGorillaBiker 3 ай бұрын
Nothing other than its been done and gets you a lot of top end, people also have used the minimum thickness head gasket also. It requires a decent amount of work on a dyno. Not something I'll personally go after
@Russxm 3 ай бұрын
@TheGorillaBiker does seem like a hassle, especially since (imo) the bike has plenty of power to get you in trouble. Cool tho, hoping to see more ppl share their experiments. I watched you headers vid the other day and it finally pushed me over the edge and now mine are on the way. Gonna be Identical mods to yours plus the airbox mod, I just want more of that induction noise!
