color tune lets you see what kind of flame you have in the cylinder you pull the plugs put this in place then put plugs back in it help to fine tune your fuel air mixture to timing if you have an orange flame you can adjust until you get a nice blue flame that will help the efficiency of the motor fuel burn and should be done when syncing the carbs i hope i explained this right i have the concept down but hard for me to explain its also hard to do on the 1st and 2nd gens without a mirror and some sort of adapter as there is not much room for this to be done

but he is too far from me glade it went ok for you other than the rain hopefully dry days ahead for riding

sorry to hear about that prayers for her and her family as well as her friends with her and the driver of the truck she hit

if i had a carb tune and color tune i would come up and do it but i dont have one and need to get both so i can do mine

and i wont be back there until the 17th thru 19th

welcome to the crazy house you have a good bike thats not even broke in yet i cant answer your question but some one who can will chime in soon oh i was to late but see some who knows will always chime in this is a great place to be

i would not know but curious about that too

just dont squeeze the clutch lever while its apart you may have to losen the slave or take it off to get the rod pushed back in then put it all back together then put the slave back on to have a clutch again (ask me how i know:whistling::whistling:)

Don i think you spoke for a lot of us in that statement you made to Yamaha but i will be voicing my opinion as well along the same lines you spoke of

just be careful

thanks Wizzard it may be 4 to 6 months before i can start getting parts for mine but do look forward to seeing what you do to yours and how its done for us dummies :rotf:

just do a write up with lots of pics please so even a dummy like me can do it

yes thank you i enjoyed the story and the pics ride safe

glad you made it safely

:rotf::rotf::rotf: i love it :rotf::rotf::rotf:

:whistling::whistling::rotf::rotf::rotf:i use whatever spray wax i have on hand and also use an old detaiers trick spray the wax on wipe up and down to spread it then put baby powder on it let it dry use new micro-fiber rag to wipe off baby powder removes the moisture from the wax and leaves the surface silky smooth i use to use this on old oxidized paint it takes the oxidation out of the paint as its nothing more than moisture trapped in old wax layers

a lot of duct tape and seafoam should do the trick oh add a little bit of bialing wire to it also and she will be good as new till the duct tape falls off :rotf::rotf: glad you made it home safe

please do pics and write up when you do this thanks wizard

thats what i want to do but it will wait for a couple months and i find a doner bike for the swap

just glad you made it home safely and i look forward to reading your findings on this problem
