It's easier to get at the plugs by draining and removing the radiator, IME. petrol tank 900 - duibhceK - 23-03-2006 the 900 fuel tank uses a fuel pump. You can take it of without draining it. At least that's what my meca did last week... petrol tank 900 - TDMBob - 23-03-2006 Tnx guys just feel the need to put a pair of these fancy plugs in (iradium?) and do the JBX airbox mod as I can't get out on bike with this weather and will have to calm myself down with doing little workshop jobs and get her ready for spring RTT06 France and beyond. petrol tank 900 - gazman - 23-03-2006 <!--quoteo(post=672:date=Thu 23rd Mar 2006, 09:16 AM:name=TDMBob)-->QUOTE(TDMBob @ Thu 23rd Mar 2006, 09:16 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->Tnx guys just feel the need to put a pair of these fancy plugs in (iradium?) and <b>do the JBX airbox mod</b> as I can't get out on bike with this weather and will have to calm myself down with doing little workshop jobs and get her ready for spring RTT06 France and beyond.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd--> Is the JBX airbox mod likely to make you fail the MOT on emissions (no not the ones you're thinking about Bob )?? I thought the air-flap malarkey was to improve emissions? petrol tank 900 - dandywarhol - 23-03-2006 No emissions test for bikes...........when it does happen expect some seriously detuned motors to comply. Even the cat 900s put out about 100 times more shite than a car!! petrol tank 900 - steveglover - 23-03-2006 <!--quoteo(post=689:date=Thu 23rd Mar 2006, 04:10 PM:name=gazman)-->QUOTE(gazman @ Thu 23rd Mar 2006, 04:10 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->I thought the air-flap malarkey was to improve emissions? <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd--> It is, but noise emissions.
