Can't even take the sensor out as the...

Bought a 12v pump off amazon last week, successfully used it this morning to do an oil change on my van, sucking oil out via the dipstick is infinitely easier, sod crawling around underneath to take...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Going slightly against the grain for a Yamaha Tracer owner, I've taken the lambda delete kit out and refitted the sensor.
Maybe sometime this year I will add the FTECU harness kit and remap it...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Put proper thru axles on this, not sure why it comes with axles that require a T40 torx to remove - hardly the easiest thing out on the road... + it now has pedals and correct saddle height

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Not sure, I have no trouble with a rubber strap type wrench.

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Coolant change on the big Tracer, I'm assuming the stuff in it was from new.
Not far off oil change too so that's the last maintenance job for a while. Brake lines getting changed this winter :p

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
A small screen mod on the Tracer. Standard spacer that came with the MRA screen is 2.8mm thick, I've now removed that and added some drilled 3/8th rubber tap washers which now = 8mm.
