  1. I run the Castrol in my Virago.
  2. Buddy of mine did this also to his. But he put on a full big gun system, did the holes in the airbox, forget what size jets he used. That thing was wide open after that.
  3. I plan on doing this in the next week or so. Painting them black to give another look to my bird. (silver bird) I was going to just hit them with thinner and scrub them up alittle. I am going to be using black automotive paint.
  4. Center stand, and in the manual it states the use of a peice of wood under the exhaust pipe collector. (Not the oil pan)
  5. Came across this site that does the indiglo and reverse light. http://www.bluegauges.com/illumiglo/honda.htm I am not the smartest motherfucker in the world and surely not the dumbest (I hope) But just how hard is it change the color of the LCD screens? I am sure it can be done with probably $10 of crap from Radio Shack. I personally don't see how they wanna charge $80 for the single tach guage of a 01' and up bird, but only $10 more for all 5 guages on the 97' - 00' :???:
  6. Not only all that, but all members now pee sitting down. You should also start doing this immediatly so you don't feel outta place Oh, and thanks!!! :grin:
  7. I checked mine saturday before heading to the bike shop.. my Avon was like a 4104 or something like that.. Will be glad when I get my tire changer. Dumb tire changer at the shop took almost 2 hours to change 4 tires.. Would pop off the tires and them come and ask which way the tire faces so he would put them on the correct way.. Still fugged up my wifes tire, he didn't make sure it seated properly and I had to do that at home..
  8. Cool deal, I just don't want them popping out when the bike starts hitting the 140 or 150 mark.. Which I go by all to often.. Really need to slow down :roll: :shock:
  9. I wanna be able to pee later also but can't do it as I just stare at your avatar. :shock: Not the bike either :twisted:
  10. :roll: not very customer friendly.. So you going to get them or cancel the order?
  11. Yeah my silver 02' is faster than your 03' wannabe black other than color hey are pretty much the same till you get back to analog gauges and stuff.. :grin:
  12. How do the little plugs (not buttplugs) that cover the holes from the grab rail stay on, I been thinking about either ordering a set from Jaws, or maybe even making some..
  13. I ordered tires last week and had them installed this weekend. I remember getting my windscreen for $16 shipped, was waiting till it got to me. I knew someone would call saying the price was wrong and so was the shipping :grin:
  14. shes ruined.. Sell it I will give you $100 :twisted: Actually it might have froze alittle as water wetter isn't a antifreeze, the expansion of the water might have caused it to leak.. Just get your neighbors dog to lick it up or something. :twisted:
  15. That boy is sucking down almost $100 of formula in 3 weeks. Kinda wish that the wife could continue feeding him.. Why buy milk when you got the cow at home.
  16. My wifes front tire had the drag speacialty sticker on it. I have seen tires in dealerships almost a yr old, no big problem there. 2 yrs and more I would begin to wonder.
  17. I am setting up my basement to be a Man's room. So will have a section dedicated to just wrenching. Starting off slower than I had hoped, but the new kid is cutting into my play fund.. ALOT :roll:
  18. Have you gotten really old tires? I just got some tires from SWMOTO myself, I got a good deal on them since I also ordered my wifes tires for her Virago. Was a pain in the ass finding a 90/90-19 that had a matching 140/90-15 rear. Got me another Avon 45 since I was getting free shipping. Will look at their born on dates when I get home.
  19. Me and a buddy are looking at getting the one from Harbor freight. We are going to the dealer this weekend to get 4 tires changed :shock: We are only getting charged $20 a tire, but it would pay for itself quickly if we had out own. :cool:
  20. Well, my wife finally came to the conclusion of one important thing, after testing out her car the other day. I had to put a new (plastic) :roll: intake manifold on her Thunderbird. So I do a nice rolling burnout with it. I pulled back into the driveway, and my sister-in-law just looked puzzeled. Wife said to her that I put the tires, and gas in them, and pay for everything else. I can do as I please :shock: I bought her a bike for her Birthday last yr. She was pregnant, and now 3 months after birth better be getting ready to ride.
  21. I found some Pirelli's, and just ordered the MT66's in a 90/90-19, I am almost done with the project, carbs should be going back in within a couple weeks, and order a R/R and see what that ass stomping, fire breathing whole 535cc's bitch can do.. :wink: Then let the wife have it
  22. Her bike takes a 90/90-19 or 3.00/90-19 front tire on her Virago. Problem is finding a 90/90 front. The 90 tire is for sizes. 2.75 to 3.00 and 100 tire is for 3.25 to whatever. Would it hurt much by just buyin a 100/90-19 and make my life a whole lot simpler. Turn in would be alittle slower, but this is her first bike, and this will be her first riding season. I wanna order them from swmototires.com and found a crap load of tires that are 100/90 any advise ?
  23. I ride some pretty twisty stuff in the mountains, only had the rear skip on me once, and that was from the road conditions. They do get sticky.
  24. I ride aggressive when the roads allow for it. Which is about 70% of my riding I was running 36F and 38R for pressure. This this time around I will bump it up to 38F and 40R might help
