puckslpr Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Hello all... Just picked up my bike last Friday! White FZ-07! Super excited. Already put about a 100 miles on her! Everyone said it's a sweet ride... and boy is she ever! Thanks to Jordan at Thousand Oaks Powersports... He worked with the price and got me out the door with no issues! Looking to ride with new friends! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puckslpr Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 already started... Yoshi Fender Eliminator... Flyscreen... Spools! Bought the Frame sliders, but was worried about unbolting the engine/frame screws. Didn't want the engine to twist or something like that!!! Do you have any advice? http://i1381.photobucket.com/albums/ah227/puckslpr/8CF87B02-4D71-4D80-B99F-D8B3E3C07861_zpskdxc4ize.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put on OES sliders and did them one at a time and torqued to the recommended pressure. Illegitimi non carborundum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do ONE at a time, they don't shift. I did mine (as did many others) while on the side stand. Many of us have the OES ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator Guru Posted October 6, 2014 Global Moderator Share Posted October 6, 2014 Hi @puckslpr, good to see you posting. Don't worry about mounting those spools. Just unbolt one and put the spool and and then proceed with the other one. The engine is not going to shift when you only unbolt one bolt at a time. Good looking bike!

Global Moderator mjh937 Posted October 6, 2014 Global Moderator Share Posted October 6, 2014 Welcome to the forum. I was concerned about the sliders too, but it was a piece of cake. I would recommend a torque wrench if you do not have one as you will want to make sure that it is torqued down correctly since it is an engine mount. Do not forget to put some oil or blue loc-tite on the threads as the torque value is a wet torque. Thanks for posting photos and keep them coming as you do more mods.
