I would replace highly customized with "upgraded"
Get rid of the tinkered line. Total turn off. And besides, what bike owner doesn't tinker with their bike?

I got nuthin, donated a bunch of phones in December.

Lots of extra heat with pressure that low. Lucky the tire didn't blow out.

11) 96% of cancer victims eventually admit that they've eaten bread !
I remember reading somewhere that researchers couldn't track cancer in humans before the advent of enriched flour.

Just need to work on the diet. Between business travel, vendor lunches and general lack of willpower my diet goes from marginal to total suck.

Actually there's no such thing as "DOT" law or regs for motorcycle tires, unless of course you are hauling freight for hire and stop at all ports and pay road use taxes.
Yes... it don't take much to plate a bike here in AZ. The headlight and tail light don't work and are only on there for fooling the PoPo whenever I ride from my house to the trails. Most PoPo around here won't even blink if they see a head light on what looks like a streetable bike, but boy if they see number plates, your ass is theirs.
Uh, last time I checked 49CFR 571.119 includes motorcycles manufactured after 1948....but OK.
-
I'm confused. It's plated, but I see no signals or speedo or anything. How would that translate to registering it to other states?
It's an Arizona thing.. all you need is a headlight, tail light, 1 mirror and a horn and you are "street legal". If you're riding in the city you may get hassled for not having DOT tires but otherwise it's game on.

Sweet!!
Didn't realize they made a Rekluse for that beast.

You should be able to hide one of the smaller bottles in the tail section. It might require a bit of creative plastic tray rearrangement to do it.
I plan to hide mine under the gas tank where the airbox used to be.
Yeah, I always thought a set of sneaky petes would fit nice inside the tail cowl along the outside of the subframe.

Clean XX :icon_thumbsup:
Is it a 49 state or a Cali bike?
-
Getting ready to try one of these.....
For the bike I just "shoe-gooed" it inside the upper cowl. Water resistant, theft proof, great receive-sensitivity.
-
fuck it just buy new head light assemblies.
$50-$75 each and worth it too see at night.
If they were that cheap I would replace them too. But the wifeys Nissan headlight assemblies are $189 a piece (online) I may try the toothpaste thing as an option.

I betcha BarryG paid HALF as much as you did for his icon kitty jacket.

There was a PC V, headers, and a really good tuner. The tuner had done a number of zx14s & showed us a few before-and-after maps (butterflies in then out) with the same increase up top. Some very minor sacrifice down low in the 2500 - 3500 rpms.
Ah, that makes more sense. I'd guess removing the flies had nothing to do with that extra 14 up top. That was the exhaust and the tune.
I am surprised that there was less power anywhere below 6k after removing the flies, but I'm far from a professional tuner.
I wonder if anyone has ever tried milling or shaving a set of flies... maybe 5% of the total surface area at a time with a dyno run in between. I betcha there is a sweet spot in there somewhere.

Sting? Great way to bust people for receiving stolen property.

Owned a GL1800, test rode a C14. I'd say quite a bit faster than the Wing, especially the top end. Wing is definitely more comfortable though.
I think Redbird pinned his rented wing at 142 at Hookers a few years ago.. sounded like a freight train.

If your not hurting for cash I bet you could work out a nice donation/write off with a local museum. Arizona Science Center? Maybe Pima Air & Space?

I nearly fell off a 3-story roof once. Scary as shit.
Just remember to never step back to admire your work.

Change 'em out ... hell no!! If the last dumbasses who lived here were too stoopid to take 'em with them I say... bonus!!

Shit.shit.shit. 2 weeks too late, just dumped all my available "toy" money into new truck. damn!

Is he prepping them or selling crated? Gotta ask, sure it will come up.

KTM has always had too many letters in their models. I'll ask around out here, riding season is just starting. Do you have a line on anyone who will ship?
