and im on my zxr400 l baby,





passed my full test on the 8th, went to the nabd rally on the weekend, been riding on the animal since the 12th

stunning bit of metal, still getting used to the steering cos it needs a fair bit of counter steering even at low speeds?

Peace

That lucks awesome mate!!! Love the exhaust.

Counter steer is basically needed at anything above about 10mph...

Thats looking nice, somethin abit different

cheers peeps, and thanx Jeppo for that tip.

Im thinking about getting some further training cos im not confident at all when cornering.

Another question for the gurus.

when accelerating, not pinning it, but all the time i hear a swoosh swoosh type noise. defo not the brakes, defo form the engine. any ideas?


cheers

swooosh swoosh? the wind?

Its gonna be hard to diagnose on that lol

Get it up on paddock stands and spin the wheels (just make sure its not breaks). Could be the chains not adjusted properly...
Extra training never hurts, the best way to get to know your bike by far is a track day, really get to know what your bike is capable of and have a great time!!

Had it on a stand, got its butt on there last night, same with the front, and the discs are ok.

its odd how it only happens when the engine is under strain, accelerating like.

See those hoover pipes ?

Maybe wind swooshing in those - is there a K & N In there...?

Not 100% sure on the K+N situ,

Defo not the sound of wind rushing through the pipes.

Is your chain too tight? Or not lubricated enough.

Maybe you were passing near by lamposts??

Bike looks cool!

it was one of a pair off ebay wasn't it? did u buy the two?

Mine gets that sound too mate and im not too bothered by it, i doubt its anything really mate.

strange noises are what owning kwaks is all about lol

just wear some earplugs
