Busy weekend

My back has been hurting so I have spent a lot of time messing in the garage this weekend.
Todays jobs included:
- Fitting the carbs to the RG500
- Oil change and filter for the Duke, you have to take the rear exhaust off and you can see (Chris) the difference lowering the needle 1 position has made, they are now nice and dark as opposed to the whitey/grey they were before!
- Re- jetted the FZR now it's running 110's (was 105's standard are 107.5's). Plus raised the needle from the second position downto the middle clip position. This is in the hope to improve carburation.
They were the major jobs, plus some fiddling with the exhaust support on the FZR, nice and clean now and finding some appropriate bolts for various bits and pieces.
Major Led Zep on the music front all weekend - you can't beat a good bit of music in the garage as you work!
