As far as I know they made 500 a year from 94 - 97 the 400 in 98. (I did hear a rumor that 100 were made in 93 but that's a rumor) So it would be between the...

Hi, I hope I'm not covering old ground, here, but the tach on my '96 Duke is sometimes steady (especially when stopped), sometimes erratic (especially while...
Hi. I went from 40 to 42 on the back and this made the bike better in town and quicker through the gears out of corners. The bike was also more willing at 100+...
How can you the mold release goo (silicone?) they have on new tires? Can I use engine degreaser without harming the rubber (I noticed once, while cleaning my...
Any tips on scratch removal? I was going to try using wet sanding up to 4000 or 8000 grit, then rubbing compound. Anyone with experience here? [Non-text...
The shop who fits my tyres runs a die grinder with a sanding wheel fitted over the tyre before they put them on the bike. If you don't have a die grinder you...
Thanks Mike. I am just riding on the street. Does the new carb only work better at high RPM? WOuld you recommend this for around town riding? I did a track day...
dan is it clear plastic?tail lens plastic...all can be polished but if you need to see through it ill will probably distort a little (but if it is bad now it's...
no, the carb gives better throttle response (cv vs slide) everywhere. My fcr actually gives better mileage than the stocker, and feels better at low speed...
I have a carbon hugger I got from Schneider in germany. Fit was less that perfect as I think they share the hugger across both the duke I and II but it does...
Thanks Joe. It's not the clear stuff, but rather the black stuff -- it's the side radiator fin, the side of the headlight casing, and a bit of the rear quarter...
you might look in the back of a moto mag, there are polishes specifically for this. One that's not, but that works pretty good is tooth paste. This is ...
Shawn, I just got my bike Dyno'd this last week. I've posted the JPG of the dyno run in the file section as "2002 Duke-II with FCR41+Akra" You'll see 2 curves,...
Hi ... I went from the stock 17:38 to 17:39 - hardly noticed a difference on acceleration or top speed. Cheers Bill mailto:wsymonds@... Duke 640 Last...

Has anyone fitted a Scottoiler to the LC4 engine found in the Duke 2 or any other LC4'd bike with the Mikuni BST 40 carb? I can't find a vacuum connection and...
dan, don't recall ever doing that type plastic...but if you have an inconspicuous(?spelling) place to try you should experiment first...if not sounds like you...
... When I bought my Duke it had a Scottoiler fitted, and unfortunately yes, you'll have to drill the connector. On mine it was below the carb outlet. (No...
Thanks Joe, I'll give it a try and report back. If I'm not too lazy, I'll do before/after pictures. Or, if my brake lever comes in first, I'll put away the...
Hi ... It's a mudguard mounted close to the wheel like most sports bikes have and which was standard on the D1s. Cheers Bill mailto:wsymonds@... Duke...
Ok you guys have talked me into the carb. Will I need to change the boots or will it fit with the stock ones?? This sounds like it will make the bike better ...
