Front Forks and spin on oil filter

[Mark Olson]

Rock on Randy,   

that's Good news for the group.

Did you make any progress on the motor mounts for the 86 models? 

I may even wash my fj this year.

Hey Randy, got a lovely list as soon as you have the oil coolers ready. Quick question, will the oil cooler kit have ready access for hooking up a temp gauge?

It's an awesome service you provide us all Randy, I hope you get plenty of support in sales to members from this site.

Cheers, Dazza

Tengu, I weigh 80kgs, ride mostly solo and went with the Racetech 0.90 kg/m front springs and emulators with at first 15wt oil but found it too harsh. Changed to 10wt and it still wasn't perfect, so increased the preload on top of the fork to number 2, and it is now just the bees knees.

I installed the penske as well, and with the gixxer rear wheel and nice fat 180/55 rubber, she is now a very different beast to what I bought 8 months ago. Just lovely. Gonna have to wait to get into some good twisties, very rare up my neck of the woods, although I have found a few corners that I do several times just to sate the kookaloo

But coming fro NZ, I really hang out to get onto a nice winding road.

Good luck with it all,

Dazza

Dazza,
         Thank you for the kind words. The oil coolers are coming along nicely and I really hope to have the ready to go right around February 1st.

The oil cooler will not have a provision for a temp sensor probe, you will need to install it directly into the galley fitting of the engine with this adapter; Galley Adapter

That adapter has 1/8" NPT so that the sensor can be screwed into it and be in the direct oil path.

Thanks again,

Randy,


is this threaded for the end of the engiine or the front of the engine?   I believe when i bought mine i was told they are two different plug sizes?

Frank,
      The galley adapter I have listed is the same for the front fitting under the header or either side just under the crankshaft. Those three galley plugs require a 10mm allen (hex) wrench from removal.

The smaller galley plug in the one for the oil pan galley which would also be an acceptable location to mount the sender and there would not be anything visible, but there might be heat issues from the header. I am actually having those adapters made right now, but I already have the large galley plugs in stock. That plug requires a 8mm allen (hex) wrench from removal.
