any way i got to 60mph in 5th i think and it just stuck at about 62mph at 5500RPM and wouldnt go any higher, any ideas

pass......test

cheapest way to go faster, bud.

JakeyC · Scooby Slapper Joined: 21 Jan 2005 Karma :

yea i will do but the tihng is an NSR should go faster than 60mph even restricted, 60mph!! i mean Rolling Eyes

instigator · Super Spammer Joined: 19 Oct 2004 Karma :

60mph was fine for me on my 125 Wink

Well.....all it did was 55mph Laughing

Stick it out, learn as much as possible and do your test Very Happy

Unless you got it on finance, then sell the bike and get a bike designed to go faster Very Happy

No wonder why your bike won't do over 60 though, should do 70 I would have thought. There's plenty nsr geeks on this forum though, I'm sure someone will tell you something useful Wink

yes, im hoping someone will tell me something useful

The square root of any number is the number's 'square root' squared.

Useful? Wink

What condition is the spark plug in? That is the window to the engine. Running too rich, too lean, overheating, pre-ignition, too much oil, too little, whatever, the spark plug colour will tell you.

Could be your ignition pump mate... I'd check that out then take it back on the A roads. If it doesn't reach 80mph then take it back home, degrease the back of her throat and download the whole thing.

Is it an import NSR? If so then it will have restriction in the cdi. It therefore wont let you go above certain speed.

My guess would be a partially blocked main jet, i had a similar problem on my TZR.
either that or the head wind was too strong Smile

Let me know if you need a hand on how to fix it.

have you checked the usual restrictions ? ie the one in the exhaust its a little washer between your exhaust and the cylinder head just unscrew the exhaust and pop the washer out thats one, the CDI possibly thats already been mentioned . Im sure some kind soul will tell you more . as for the rest dont listen to them telling ya not to bother lol it just because they have big boy bike Laughing

Ive got an Italian import NSR. It was restricted when i got it and it would do 75 regularly 80 max.
To derestrict i had to take a washer out that is welded in to the exhaust further down the pipe than on non-import NSRs, then reweld the pipe back up.
That fully derestricted it and its now good for 105 on a good day!

Cheers

I'm needing to change the plug on my bike, never done it before.

Does it just unscrew? Also what should i be looking for colour wise on the plug?

Just pull off the HT lead then use a spark plug spanner to unscrew it.

Yes it unscrews like a bolt.

Ideally it should be a nice light brown colour.

When screwing it back in, screw it in by hand till its as tight as you can get by hand (without the ratchet) and then give it a quarter turn in with the ratchet. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
