IT WAS THE FUEL INJECTION RAIL!!!!!!

Post by varden »

I think I've finally put the ZX6R trackie's fueling saga to bed.

Turned up to QR for some test and tune today, bike ran fine till i had to ride it out of the pits...then no power....then back to life....then 300m into my first lap...nothing.....then at the end of session alive again.

Pitted it, pulled out the EFI rail, put original one in off lunched engine and prob solved.

Got 3 sessions in during the arvo once bike was back together, didn't miss a beat. Cut consistent 24-25's on very average condition slicks Couple of slides here and there to remind me that the tyres were past it.

WOOOHOOOOO!!

There are really only two questions in life. 1.Which way do i go? 2.What is the lap record?
