  1. How much shipped to 27520 for 1999 cbr1100xx right lower cowl in black
  2. Thanks for all of the help. It was the battery. It went without warning. I read out all of the circuits and recharged the battery a couple of times, but still had the same problem. I finally put a new battery in. Everything is back to normal. I guess it was time. I bought the bird about 2 and 1/2 years ago and this is the first problem I have had. 2 CCT's and a set of sprockets and a chain, normal wear stuff ... I think that's pretty good for 20,000 miles of riding.
  3. I got on my bike after work, and when I turned my key to the run position the lights came on, the fuel pump ran for a moment, all as normal. As soon as I pressed the starter button the bike went completely dead. Checked the battery leads, they were tight. Checked the fuses all were good. Hauled it home, charged the battery same result. Any suggestions.
  4. Thanks for the information. I adjusted the beam up to the suggested 35" and it seems to have helped a lot. I haven't been back on the freeway, so I will know better then.
  5. I have searched for headlight adjustment instructions with no luck. Can someone "enlighten" me. When I drive after dark my low beam is just too low. I do not feel comfortable driving more than 65mph on low beam. I worry about old truck tire pieces taking me out. On higbeam I blind anybody on the freeway within a half mile in front of me.
  6. Thanks Mike, based on that I really do not need a rear sprocket since my bird only has 21K on it. I will just order a front sprocket and the DID530zvm2, and from what I've read on here it sounds like White Buffalo Racing is the place to buy.
  7. If I buy a D.I.D. 530ZVM2 will I have to have new rear sprocket? Also, is there an advantage to the AFAM hard anodized vs. steel rear sprocket if a new sprocket is required. The bird currently has a gold 530vm.

    speedo healer

    I ordred mine from: http://www.amotostuff.com/thestore/speedohealer.html I enterd my error at 8% and the speedometer seems to be really close. I haven't had a chance to compare it to my GPS because all I have is a hand held and haven't taken it out with me. I liked the ease of installation and the highest speed replay feature. As mentioned above, my 40 MPG has gone now since it changed the odometer. The reason I noticed my speed was off was that I was checking mile markers on interstate and they were constantly over a mile apart.
  9. Anyone familiar with affects of installing a full Yoshimura system and later installing a PC? Just wondering what I should expect...cooler running in city traffic? It runs above the half mark when driving it in lower gears on mountain roads constantly on and off throttle or stop and go city driving, but never touches the upper mark. On interstate and other open roads it usually runs in the lower half of the temp zone. I do not seem to have any flat spots, so will it improve performance noticably, or improve gas milage, I get between 38 and 40. I would just like to know what to expect before spending $300+. Any suggestions on finding a used one, probably not many out there since this version seems to be a recent release...
  10. i got a S/S sleeve replacement kit from yoshi, two kinds just the sleeve for 50 bucks i think or the whole kit , sleeve, rivets and bands, and the hanger for 70 bucks. real easy replacement, the yoshi plaque is included and rivets but is not installed, as it depends on which side you put it on, seem to remeber it arrived real quick as well , after they had told me it would take 4 weeks it arrived under a week. don't like the labels anyway.....and changed to a nice S/S can. Thanks, I hadn't considered taking it apart and repairing it. Also I didn't know you could buy a new skin.
  11. I have a '99 CBR1100XX with a full Yoshimura RS-3 exhaust system. The can has some dents on the side closest to the wheel. Can just the can be replaced or is it OK to drill and pull the dents? Will this affect the performance or sound?
  12. Collar 2 @8.99 ea. Spring washer 1 @2.69 plain washer 2 @1.99 ea. Bolts 2 @4.49 ea. Total tax and special handling $36.70
  13. I just ordered from the stealer. Supposed to be here Monday or Tuesday. Thanks
  14. Thanks for the info. I was trying to see if I might be able to get what I need from the hardware store and not have to go through the stealer.
  15. I purchased a center stand on ebay and it came with the springs. Does anyone know what size bolts I need? Also, I saw on the parts list and picture that there is a washers looking item with a "collar" on it. Are there any substitutions for this part? I have the full yosh exhaust and the stand fits just fine. I just need the hardware. Any help is appreciated
