Turn Signal Intergration – Yamaha YZF R6 2002

Sunday, April 5th, 2009

After owning my bike for a number of years I finally went ahead and decided to change out the rear fender and put in a turn signal integrator.  As long as I was changing the lights out on my bike I also went ahead and changed out the front turn signals to some “flush” Mounts as well.  I order my rear turn signal integrator from CustomLed since they seemed to have a pretty decent price on the lights.  I also made sure to get a new relay since I was removing all bulbs from turn signals and was going all leds.

The instructions from CustomLed were of a vary high quality so following them was a breeze.  Of course the actual implantation of those instructions is something else entirely.

Replaced fuel filter

Sunday, September 14th, 2008

So decided to replace the fuel filter on the truck before winter kicked in. Started a little before 8 in the morning talk about some cold dirty cement since I did this in the driveway.

The plug to disconnect the fuel pump so I could release the fuel pressure was in the front of the gas tank on the top. Unplugged that and tried to start it thus removing the pressure.

Took a couple a pictures while I was working in it. You can see the old filter out next to the new one and finally the new one installed. Of course after I did this I smelled like gas for a while.
