  1. Ninja 650R, ER6
    Hi All, I just wanted a second opinion on this from someone with a bit more experience. My 2006 ER6 runs OK but it sounds rough and burns oil (fairly randomly!). The engine seems to run very hot, and the oil turns very dark/thick almost immediately after an oil change (i've changed the...

    Hey everyone, I just bought a 4 degree ignition advancer for my 05 Z750, Installed it and found that the bike didn't run properly, it got to around 6000revs and would stutter and splutter and my FI indicator would flash, it really didn't like it, So I thought I'd put the stock one back on since...

    Would I need to take the engine off in order to reset the timing on the cam chain? I lost the timing when I took off the camshaft cover which took the exhaust camshaft with it enough to take the camshaft chain off the sprockets. I would prefer not to take the engine off. I'm wondering if...
