I don’t have anything bad to say about Rotax engines. Not sure if I would own one but opportunity hasn’t risen I guess

@@grizzlymotomotorsports1029 Like tractor engines...they sound sorta industrial.

Thanks for your comment. Glad she’s back to top notch and ripping again. They really are great mini adventure bikes.

I want to do another video for you guys because I don’t think I can answer your question clearly. The groove of slot on the plunger slides into position in the fuel pump body with a little dowel locator in the body. I will post another video in a few days if you want to hold off for a bit

He explained towards the end where he saw the pin fell out. The small pin aligns with the groove just below it and keeps it in place. Don't tilt the pump and lose that pin or you'll have a bad cylinder. GREAT VIDEO!!! Can't wait for grizzly to do a 4 cylinder with geared rack as well as when the rack is frozen where slide pin doesn't match engine opening. Stuck. There's the side fuel adjust secret 😉

Sweet I’m glad you found that useful. I’ll be having the FZ1 back in the shop next week so let me know if you need a certain video of anything on the bike

I love my bike for the places I get to go on it. Wouldn’t catch me hiking and 4 wheels is just not that fun.

You know I think that same thing sometimes. I’ll get frustrated and something would give me trouble so I take a break, wooo saww, then when I come back I get it right away. It is a mental struggle sometimes. There is a book I have been meaning to read. “Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance” I think it would shine light on this topic.

Can you hear your fuel pump prime when you turn the key on?

@@grizzlymotomotorsports1029 yes of course

You got that right!

Sorry for the late response. I just got back from my week ride in Baja. I can do the work no problem. 408 630 0809. Ashton

First generation FZ1 2001-2005. Second generation was 2006-2015. This here is a 2009 FZ1. Yours is carbureted this generation is fuel injected

Tell it like a story, I like that. Thanks for your input. I don’t say that sarcastically. It takes me awhile to get good at something but once I get it I’m good. Practice makes perfect and listening to constructive criticism.

I'd have to say it was very clearly described if you were a little familiar with the mechanics of the pump and have some understanding of the parts. Great Video. Actually one of the BEST! 😊

Alright! I’m glad to hear that! I find so many videos useful on KZfaq. It feels good to be apart of that community. Your comment gives me inspiration to keep making videos so thank you for your comment.

Lol only one I want thinking of me at night is my honey

I got it from eBay for $185 For YAMAHA FZ1N 2006 - 2015 Fazer Headlight Set Head Turn Signals Light Assembly

Yes unfortunately the owner of the bike went down. It was pretty bad and he got knocked out and doesn’t completely remember the crash. He’s an older gentleman past 50 years old. He recovered and back at it again.

Yes a torn vacuum slide diagram or seal as you call it will cause running issue 100%. If you need help finding where the vacuum lines go you can look in the video towards the end

Yeah she does. You found one of my very first videos

This is my beginning stage when I was shy to talk on camera. I felt the need to fill the silence or cover my voice with music. It’s not a permanent method. It’s only until I can get more comfortable talking on camera. Thanks for your input tho.

Type into google bayou 250 service manual pdf. There is a manual you can buy online for $30

It was the touring style so slightly taller. The FZ1 rider actually went down and I have the bike in for repairs but no windscreen on it. I think he has it at home so I asked him and I’ll get back to you

похоже на GIVi

Your correct the service manual does say turn CCW and that is wrong. We should always turn our cranks clockwise away from our cam chain tensioner. Unless you have KTM or bmw street bikes have cam in front on RH side or on the opposite side like any dirt-bike and in that case you would turn CCW. Just a reminder because I didn’t say it in the video, we need to leave our tensioner engaged while turning our crank. Only time we remove our tensioner is when we are removing our camshafts.

Glad it was helpful!

With no hour counter I can only assume it was close to 100hrs based on the wear on the piston skirt. Based on the performance I couldn’t really tell if it needed to be done or not. I can say if it did run much longer in that condition the cylinder walls would start to except the same wear as the piston skirt. My advice is if it’s questionable then just do it better safe then sorry. You could always start fresh with an hour counter. This bike was running at 40:1. The people at SmartCarb systems said that was rich for the beta Xtrainer and they recommend 60:1. We chose to split the difference and are running 50:1 after the break in period. During the break in we are still running the 40:1 ratio. A compression test could give you a good idea of where your at in piston to cylinder engine life but you will still have good compression as your piston is starting to wear. The objective is for the rings to be the only component taking the wear. Only sure thing if you loose track is to inspect and at that point why not just do it. Thanks for watching my video. I hope I helped answer your questions. Braaap on and safe riding!

Great info and thank you for taking the time to give such a good detailed reply. My 2021 model is fairly new to me so I'm trying to get a feel for what to expect from my bike. Mine has 28 hrs on it. I suppose Beta put the hour meter on these at some point because mine has it built into the dash unit. @@grizzlymotomotorsports1029

Aww thank you Kati ❤️

Haha yep just having a little fun

That’s great advice, good eye! I’ve actually had problems with those also but thought it was a fluke. I will let my customer know and switch the vent to a traditional hose. Thank you to the people at smart carb fuel systems!

Dude said we weren’t going back until he broke something

Hahaha brilliant 😂

They are cool little bikes

Glad you enjoyed it

Your welcome

Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. I will always keep turning wrenches at the shop and helping my local community. Looking forward to guiding you and other individuals through the beautiful mountains.
