WAAAAAAAAAAANT Just got a Versys, though. Dammit I should have waited. Yamaha is always a classier option with a much better motor.
Thank you sir!
Very true, biggest I ever used was the 295. Maybe the KLR650 people need them more? Who knows...
bumping. Will drop down to $60 shipped for the 23 shims. Thats a helluva deal! Lower 48 only...
I guess you'll find out soon if I have the right sizes!
I'll drop it to $80 shipped to the lower 48! Seriously, make me an offer. They're just sitting on my shelf- jealous of the 7.48mm shims sitting in...
bumpity
Ok here's a list of shims: 230x2 240x2 250x1 270x8 280x2 290x3 295x1 300x2 310x2
Colortune sold! Shims still available.
Pending on the colortune...
Having sold my XJ, there are a few things I still have kicking around. I have a 14mm colortune. Used briefly with normal signs of wear, but not...
After two years of ownership, I sold my trusty Seca. I've learned so damn much bringing that bike back to life, and I now have no hesitation...
Yeah, something is wrong in the mechanism. If bet it could just use some lubrication. The easy way is to use silicone lube, and just spray...
Thank you Rick for all you've done for everybody. You've taught so many people how to wrench on bikes, and how to do it properly. I'm wishing the...
Oh man that's rough. You know what, though? That's going to be a helluva nice bike when you actually get it sorted. It's funny, but people...
Thats a doozy. Float heights all in spec? Do you have an in-line fuel filter? When you think about what's going on inside the carbs during...
+2 no fruit in beer. Although I do like almost everything about the new FZ-09/07, I can't stand that headlight. They're paying too much...
I just did it- I crossed over to the dark side. 2014 Kawasaki Versys ABS. The ugliest color I've ever seen, but the nicest ride I've ever...
Don't turn so much... Or you can try and find bars with a little rise. Bar risers might be an option too. There are some switch options...
Yeah, bet it's the petcock. Rebuild it or replace it. Pretty damn cheap option to try first. Make sure you use an inline filter, too.
That's a lot to deal with. I feel like when I buy a modern motorcycle, I'm going to want it to have all the bells and whistles so I don't HAVE to...
Those are electronic, so maybe it's grounding out? I'd make sure all your connections are clean, tight, and there's no exposed or fused wires....
Get it. They're such awesome bikes. You can't get rid of your black 550, though...
Why so much?! Back fees?
Re: Low speed t-bone collision knocks something out of align I agree with taking a look under there... Another unfortunate option is stirring...
I just put some decals on my tank and screwed it all up. It's a total PITA to put them onto compound curves. Check out some YouTube videos before...
Here it is: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0009LSXA ... ot_redir=1 Don't put it on tires...
I use back to black too, but I'm trying to find this stuff for plastic parts that has black dye in it. I think bondo makes it. It doesn't come off...
Did you just do an oil change, and that's why you don't want to lose it? If you did, I agree...if you didn't, screw the oil it needs more....
I think the FZ1 bars are going to be waaay better than bent bars. I think the 750 seca and the 650 seca bars are pretty similar, and I ended up...
Damn, I should have gone with the Euro spec stripes! They look so much better! Thats a damn fine color scheme.
Don't think oil has changed much, but 20W seems kinda high. I tried 20W, and I just about rattled my teeth out. I'd go with 15W, but I have a 650...
Monthly payments...That's what keeps me coming back for more XJ, too. I was looking at a few different bikes, but the $100 per year I spend on...
Because he didn't leave an area code...fer Christsakkes sake I tried!!!
Rich, I'd say. Colortune is your best bet.
I bet you're rich. Mine is a tad. Does it feel lumpy?
I got progressive fronts with 15w and 1.5" of preload spacing, and rebuilt "RFY" shocks, rebuilt with 20W in the back. It handles like a dream,...
Oh man, that thing is so damn clean with the USD front, and rear. It looks like a damn good touring bike.
Basically I'm trying to decide between the FS7 and the FS10. Anyone?
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/mcy/4496893050.html $600, and everything looks to be very clean, just dusty.
It would take pretty major surgery... USD forks have a much greater OD at the top, so you'd have to machine out the triples to fit. The problem...
I was more thinking this type of brace... http://www.fastfromthepast.com/servlet/ ... Categories I'm pretty sure they're the same, but can't...
It bends very easily. I feel like it wouldn't be so easy to take the front fender off if it was an effective brace. It's just doubled up sheet...
D404's are the best damn tires ever. I got 8-thou out of mine. Probably could have gotten more...
Anyone know if the forks are different between a turbo and a non-turbo seca? Fork brace...Want one...
Dunno... [img] Maybe? [img] Think it will be better with accents...
I think you start hitting the fender before that becomes an issue. That being said, I put new shocks on my XJ, and blew my u-joint a month later....
9500. Not a good idea to go past redline. It was an accident: having too much fun and not paying attention...
Not Harley. I don't want to start developing oil leaks. It's Kubota orange.
