  1. Hey,

    Last time I was in the market for chains ans sprockets I found this sprocket with a life time warranty on it. I am just over 25k miles on the chain and sprocket and I have not adjusted my chain once. A few week back I was at the shop for some work and the mechanic though it was a new set. He couldn't believe the milage that was on it.

    DID ZVM2-x 530 chain

    Supersprox 45 back sprocket (http://www.supersproxusa.com)

    Steel 18 from sprocket

    It wasn't a cheap set to buy but the quality is there for sure.

    Just food for thought.

  2. I had been looking for a lithium battery for a while but after seeing prices all over the 500$ mark I dropped the idea. If the price is close to what is marked on their website I have no idea why you would want the OEM replacement from Yusa.

    Partsman, Please update us on price and will for myself shipping to Ottawa, ON.

    Cheers,

  3. Hey Guys,

    I hope everyone is happy as I am that the season is started. Over the christmas break I bought a new slip-on. To install it I will have to remove the mid pipe and it's on pretty tight. (I think is has some of that exhaust sealant) What is the best tecnique to remove the mid pipe without bending the headers?

    Thanks

  4. Para045: You took the words right of my mouth.

    Also since you park your bike in gear I am finding it a real pain of the extra step of having to put her in neutral then starting then back into gear. Simple but that is me.

  5. Hello guys,

    Got the bird out and man it's a great felling after a few days of riding her now I cannot start her up if she is in gear. But after she is started I put her in gear and ride off no prob. (yes the kick stand is up) Where is the sensor that checks if the clutch is pulled in before starting?? I am guessing it is something simple but I just can't put my hand on it.

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Cheers.

  6. Hey,

    I had bought these hoping to install them but then I had an accident (Yes I am completely fine) and well no more riding for me for this summer as I have no money to repair it. So since I have these laying around I figured I would sell them to buy bus tickets. (Yup the bus sucks)

    I am looking to get 265CDN$ what I paid for and well I know i can't get my shipping cost back so I will ship in canada and the usa for free. (within reason - I checked and shipping to california will only be around 15$)

    Also, I didn't take a picture of the hardware that came with but that is also included.

    Here are some pictures. They aren't perfect quality cause I have no digital camera so they are taken with my phone.

    PM me if interested.

  7. Hey all, I was curious if anyone knew from experience if there are other bikes that have the same bolt pattern as the XX for rearsets.

    (ie. would rearsets from say a cbr 900RR fit perfectly on an XX)

    Let me know if anyone out there has information.

    Cheers,

  8. Hey, I am no mechanic but looking at some posts some people have O2 eliminators and Pair Kits. I was curious how do I figure out if my 'Bird has these.

    When I bought my 'Bird I could tell the guys had done some work to it. Full Two Brother System, undertail, alarm, etc.... so I'm kinda curious how far the previous owners had gone.

    Directions on how to figure out if these things are there or not would be greatly appreciated.

    Also what are the gains of having these things there or not?

    Thanks.

  9. Hey guys, I see that there is a lot of people here with very good technical information. I know motor vehicle but i have zero mechanical background. I was wondering what could be done to an '01 'Bird's engine to get more power?? I already have a Two Brother Full system and I know that there's the turbo option but i was looking more in the line of Big bore kits and port polishing. What else could be done?

    Thanks in advance.

  10. Hey folks, I have made the decision that i am going for a HID kit. I have been looking on ebay for prices but there are like 2000 different conversion kits. Since some of you have gone trough the process of buying i thought I would ask for advise.

    There is a huge price difference..... 50$ to about 400$. Now I know you get what you paid for but there is the fact that you do pay for the name brand. I hear McCollough was a good one from another forum. Now i have seen some made by Maybach (Mercedes division) so i know that is top quality. Also there are quite a bit from a company named Xentec.

    Would you folks be kind enough to tell me what brand you have and if you recommend it. Also if you have heard anything about the three that I mentioned that would be great.

    Thanks,
