    Fuel pump gasket

    Put a fresh gasket and make sure there isn't any paint where the gasket seats, or it will leak for sure. Gasoline will slowly dilute most gasket making compounds and automotive paints. Hope that helps

    Surging and unsmooth

    What did you do to your FZ today?

    Looking for Gen2 OEM bellypan (any condition)

    I am considering an f-glass replacement for that reason and cost. Keep in mind that there is a quite a difference in airflow between riding and a dyno blower. I doubt I will be holding the redline for more than a few seconds at a time on the street.

    Looking for Gen2 OEM bellypan (any condition)

    180+hp 84ft/lbs baseline , then it lost power :( I found the reason, yesterday... the throttle bodies had popped off the boots and were probably leaking prior to that. (hence the 180hp) going back to the tuner on monday As a precaution, I will strap the plenum down. Ive been riding it as is...
