Not exactly sure what the problem is. Clearly defining the problem is about 50% to 90% of solving the problem. Seems like you have a 92', a bike with more stock upgrades than my 86. Is English your second language? The written part is kind of hard to read... We like to help, just don't make it too hard for us simple minded blokes to read....

Then feel better soon, perhaps before your next post. If you can take our punishment then fire away. We love to tease and abuse, all in good nature most of the time.

Take some time to search our files and posts. Many questions have been asked and answered already. You will get a warmer welcome when you come in with knowledge from searching the files first.

well shucks thak y'all for the getting better
the reason why i asked about the year is some companys run models by financial year date not calendar year
