  1. That would have sucked major ass if it would have happened on the road. Tell me about it. At least I have three months to decide what I wanna do. Just do me a favor and have a blast next month
  2. Yeah, yeah, "Mines bigger" Would you believe I made the right choice not to go to Barber, The truck dropped a valve
  3. You get more noise from the wind than the muffler on a long trip. The micron system is actully fairly quiet. Why bother with trying to put the stocker back on? edited to add: http://www.cbr1100xx.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=39032 if you really still want to do it you could cut the socker and fab a mid for it.
  4. If you get a large enough bubble it may drop the level and interfere with the siphon action. I check it over the next day or two to be sure. Also, don't forget to get the new copper washers for the drain bolts.
  5. It will work. You'll need to make/find your own spacer/mounting hardware. I haven't tried with that particular mount it can be done.
  6. What he said. It sounds like something more than slip-ons and jets were done to this bike.
  7. A lot of manufacturers retard the ignition timing in lower gears for drivability/emissions purposes. One of cheapest/easiest ways to gain power in a Suzuki is to install a TRE(timing retard eliminator). Same principle here.
  8. I know we played around a little but our two bikes sound different with the different cans? Iwasn't really paying attention.
  9. The shrooms are good for tipovers and you don't have to cut the fairing. They won't help in a crash. Sliders are designed for a get off but you'll need to cut the fairing to fit them.
  10. What he said. But as a general practice you should change the fluid. It's subject to heat and degrades regularly. On another note, saw your pictures. Nice lookin bike brother. But how did you hook up with such a cute girl? Did you lie to her or somethin?
  11. If it's just a heating element it really should not make any difference which way you pass the current through.
  12. more info and a price http://stores.sportbiketrackgear.com/Detail.bok?no=421 I may have to grab a set at the track this weekend.
  13. Found some info from Monte
  14. I've run the medium race powers and believe that the new TC's are mediums with power tread pattern. The best place to ask would be over on the Sportbiketracktime forum. Monte(STTGuy) is the US Michelin guy. If I see him this weekend I'll try and remember to ask.
  15. Hey, aren't you suppose to be studying anatomy?
  16. It's because it's the super special 02 version of the bike. They're the fastest thing in the world. You bringin this bad boy to Towanda?
  17. Shit Joe, I said that in one paragraph
  18. Correct. if you raise the rear and or lower the forks it quickens the handling(decreases stability) also, depending on load and suspension your geometry could change also. I don't have a damper on my BB but have the rear shimed and forks dropped to the point where it is up to the edge of tank slapping wothout actually look over.
