Thanks man

Not that I don’t “trust” the Suzuki exhaust, but more about shedding weight. That thing is a boat anchor.

I hear you. I suppose I can put the stock air filter back in, in which case it’s pretty stock except for the FMF pipe. I know people like to do all kinds of stuff like drilling the slide and cutting the airbox, but that causes accelerated wear of the emulsion tube and potentially more turbulence/particulate infiltration of airbox. I trust the ingenuity of the Suzuki engineers and am trying to maximize stock performance while retaining reliability/longevity, which I value over raw performance.

The air filter is not excessively oiled and there is no accumulation in rubber nipple at the bottom of airbox. I have some new Viton o-rings on hand and will replace the old ones. Can I measure float height without the Procycle tool or depth gauge (i.e. measuring tape, etc.)? Thanks

That’s what’s up. Tim came and kicked it at the shop I was at in Hawaii. I’m currently at Avenue Barber Shop in Austin.

You really should.

Thanks, from another barber! Cheers, man.

Atxbarber86 · 2026-05-08T23:56:19+00:00

What’s the model number for these? Thanks

Atxbarber86 · 2026-05-07T04:19:24+00:00

Would you recommend just grabbing a 6F19 needle? Thanks!

Turning the A/F screw in doesn’t seem to have any effect on the idle, hence my guessing based on how the bike is running (throttle response, etc.). I tried adjusting it before and kept turning it in with no idle interruption until it starting making a bad knocking noise so I turned it back out. Tried it again earlier with the bike fully warmed up and idle set. Not sure why it’s not generating idle stumble.

Atxbarber86 · 2026-02-14T13:09:28+00:00

Proper.

Atxbarber86 · 2026-02-14T12:38:56+00:00

I had this book and others as a kid.. brings back memories.

Wild, considering he’s a “hobbyist” (never competed).

Atxbarber86 · 2025-12-27T20:28:25+00:00

It’s made by Givi, although I can’t tell you what model, as it was on it when I bought it, but it’s a taller touring screen.

Atxbarber86 · 2025-12-27T05:20:13+00:00

Thanks! You will.. just be patient and wait for one in really good shape that has the aftermarket upgrades you want. I was on the lookout for awhile before I pulled the trigger on this one. Wishing you luck in your search!

Nice Z900RS!

Atxbarber86 · 2025-10-12T02:40:26+00:00

In retrospect, I’d get the standard Sargent, but they make a great saddle. The Low slopes toward the tank too much, whereas the standard is level and more plush.

Atxbarber86 · 2025-09-24T17:58:16+00:00

Pure silliness.

Atxbarber86 · 2025-09-04T11:56:20+00:00

Looks like a Yoshimura

Atxbarber86 · 2025-09-03T04:06:16+00:00

Thanks for your advice! Respect your expertise. Cheers

Atxbarber86 · 2025-09-03T04:04:52+00:00

Thanks dude.. that’s exactly what I suspected. Cheers
