Hello All carb/tuning experts!! I've got a Kevlar Airbox cover (Mitani) for my 315 and as its a lot loss restrictive (In theory anyway I'm guessing..) the bike will be getting more air so will be running leans thus the mixture will need richening?? If my presumption is correct how do I go about doing this?? the bike seems to run ok at the moment. Mixture/carbs/jetting has always been a bit of dark art to me, the bikes an 04 BTW Thanks in advance B

Nice job... where did you get the rear fender from!! I like the original long ride seat .. looks like a raleigh chopper!!!

Hi chewy, Whats ur websites URL? B

Hi All, I've put a linkage kit on mine, while I had it all in bits I put one of the service free dog bones on plus a later showa shock off a 4rt, the back end is nice and plush now.. was thinking about footrest hangers but I heard the Raptor and Jitsie (for a 4rt) ones wont fit a 315 as the 315 frame is thicker, so does this mean the only option for 315s are the stock hangers ? ta B

Yep! mint ones go for reasonable money nowadays an 01 went for 2k a few week ago and an unused 04 was on ebay for about 10 mins before it went... Ta B

Thanks for the info... now I know where to take it! Ta B

Thats useful to know, can anyone recommend a shop to do it (in UK) as I reckon mine needs doing. Cheers B

I did a direct access in Novemeber cost me 600 quid, I was quoted 390 to do it on a 125. I figured if i was going to do it was worth paying the extra 200 quid to ride a 600 for the three days.. The only mistake I made was doing it Scotland in November !!! it was freezing having never ridden a rode bike it didnt realise how cold it gets on a road bike especailly on a motorway.. ta b

Not exactly close up but lots of pics fujigas's 03/04 bike http://www.fujigas.net/e/gallery.html Ta B

Thanks for the advice, I'll know what to look out for now!! Cheers Guy

Hi Guys, Thanks for the thread very informative, its something I plan to do in the near future with one of the service free dogbones. Was just wondering while i'm doing that should I replace the swinging arm ones? hwo many are there on the swinging arm? and how can you tell if they are shot! ta in advance Guy

Hi Moogster, Glad to hear you have finally got your bike running good! Was just wondering how you fit a PWK to a Mont I'm presuming you got new rubbers inlet and airbox side or did you stretch the standard ones to fit? Cheers B

Hi All, I'm also after some after market hangers for my 315, and was looking at the 4rt Jitsie ones. I guess if you cant fit 315 hangers to a 4rt then the Jitsie 4rt ones would'nt fit? Ta G

Hi All, There was a recent thread on this forum about buying items from the Josep Banyeres site (Fujis Minder if you did'nt know). For one reason or another it turned a bit unsavoury!! anyway I took the plunge and ordered a few items this involved sending a payment to Europe cost me ten quid (twenty seven quid for next day payment ) and about twenty quid for P&P! I ordered the gear a week gone friday and it turned up yesterday six working days in all it would have been quicker if I'd paid for the fast p&p and payment. I've now got mesen a Mitani Work style long pipe, bash plate and Kevlar air box (for a 315) I thought I'd have to take a trip to Japan to get that sort of stuff so I'm well chuffed. I'll post a couple of piccies of me pride and joy when I get em fitted. Ta B

As far as I can remember.... 2002 had different frame geometry 2003 had different engine porting 2004 nought mechanically (though mudguards and decals different) hope that helps! Ta B

Thanks Munch... Ta B

Hi Folks, I've got a jitsie fork brace to fit to my 315 does anyone know what size drill I need to drill out the rivets on the standard brace and what size rivets I need for the Jitsie one? Ta B

Hi there, See below the Mitani ones look nice, I;ve been meaning to get one for a while for mine. Thought i may be able to get one via the shops that stock Mitani stuff for 4rt's. The sumpguards look the business as well! http://mitani-kobe.shop-pro.jp/?pid=7702246 Ta B

Thanks for the responses.. Seems opinion a bit polarised as to whether you should use them or not! Ta Guy

Hi All, After a wee scare I'm going to invest in some knee braces, I've seen the Pod ones has anyone had any experience of these? Cheers Guy

Hi All, I'm after some Kevlar (The Green type colour) Jitsie Fork Protectors for my 315, I've had a search on the interweb but can't find anyway. Anyone got any ideas of where I could pick up some? Cheers B

Thanks for the advice Stork... I'll give that a go Cheers B

Hi All, My 315 has been resting in the shed for over a year now and I was thinking it was about time she had a run out. Though I can't kick her into life, although the bike was in tip top tune when last used. I'm guessing the petrol has gone off and I need to flush out the carb and tank and refill with fresh fuel. That was my first plan of action. Any other ideas of what I should look at ? Thanks in advance B

Both very nice machines... a couple of questions ? 1, 315rr have you polished the frame on your bike ? 2, Subira what's the front pipe on your bike Will take some pickies of my 04 next time I'm out on it Cheers

Hi, I dont confess to be any sort of twinshock expert but to me it looks like a 349 with a 348 tank/seat units and tailpipe! Cheers B
