  1. I have the Gold version on my Red Bird They are really nice wheels in any color.
  2. Received the package, Thanks Mike You put some serious time and effort into the careful packaging! It took me 10 minutes of stretch wrap removal to get to the prize :-) They are added to my collection

    Joe, I think it is actually the dealer giving you the brush off if it says backordered. That statement is based on my CCT orders from Honda Directline, where they check beyond the east coast warehouse if they show backordered. There has been a time or two that it showed backordered but were found on the left coast and just took an extra day or two to get them delivered to their dealership in Ohio and then on to me. Scott would know for sure as the GM for a Honda dealership.
  5. I like to have a few of them Elton John Alan Parsons The Who Kiss Beatles
  6. Just installed my new Lithium battery. Wow does it spin the engine fast! I weighed the Yuasa and it is 9.0 lbs The new Scorpion Stinger Lithium is 2.1 lbs felt like the lithium was hollow with almost a 7 lb difference. Now to see how well it holds up long term?
  7. You are just going to have to show up with your CBR6 at RacerXX to see just how sexy the new Speed really is!
  8. Gave Hank a call and got confirmation of the ZX12 Kawasaki pattern. Now to order up the correct rear SuperSprox! Thanks for the help
  9. Thanks but I need to know which sprocket matches the Carrozzeria wheels that were supplied in our group buy a few years ago. Carrozzeria did not make a direct replacement for the Bird so we used wheels for the _______? I think it was the ZX12 but not positive so looking for confirmation. Hank will know for sure off the top of his head.
  10. I ordered up a new rear sprocket that went out today priority Mail and just realized a few minutes ago that I ordered the OEM Blackbird sprocket and I have the aftermarket Carrozzeria wheels. If my memory serves me right I should have ordered the sprocket for the ZX12 to match the Carrozzeria wheel? Can anyone confirm the correct rear sprocket for the Carrozzeria wheels we got in the group buy a few years ago? Hank? I thought I was putting all new chain and sprockets on this weekend but will have to wait another week or so.
  11. I ordered up the Scorpian Stinger Should be delivered tomorrow Priority Mail
  12. I went with OEM myself. With your connections i would think that OEM would be priced right!
  13. The advantage that I see promoted on them is about 8-10 times more cycles (start-up) on a lithium verses AGM No battery tender needed unless storing over a month with clock/alarm etc drawing voltage. With battery disconnected it holds a full charge for over a year way more Cold Cranking Amps at 385 CCA green and recyclable - no acid or lead - waterproof Kind of like LED verses Incondescant bulbs I just ordered one and will report my findings. Was almost the same price as the Yuasa 14S AGM battery ($8 more )
  14. Just ordered up the EK ThreeD 530 chain in gold
  15. Any feed back on the lithium batteries? They are getting cheaper and looks like they are almost priced similar to the Yuasa brand
  16. I am about to order up a new yuasa battery for the Bird and it calls for a YTZ 12S but I want the higher cranking amp model that I think is the YTZ 14S or maybe the YTZ 10S?
  17. 61,000 on the clock and 23,000 on the sprockets and chain, time to replace both sprockets and drive chain. I found a tight spot on the chain while installing a new rear Pilot Road 3 tire yesterday. Ordered up the new OEM front sprocket since I prefer the rubber damper on it. Ordering up the new RK threeD chain in gold (beautiful) But looking for recommendations for the rear sprocket? I looked at the lifetime guaranteed sidewinder and the like but not willing to spend over $100 for a single sprocket. I always replace the chain and sprockets at the same time so I don't care about the lifetime warranty. Looking for a good quality hardened STEEL rear sprocket for under $100. recommendations?

    You are correct. they are middlemen
  19. That is absolutely a beautiful piece of machinery that I could only dream about actually owning. Good luck with the sale, I am sure it was a tough decision to part with it.

    I have had very good experience with Honda Direct Line Parts (www.hdlparts.com) but I am bias since I have a long relationship with the owner. I bought my 01 Bird new from them in 2001 and have probably bought over 1000 CCT's (Lifter sets) from them! Just a quick FYI, they will price match anyone on the net on Honda OEM parts. They have had some issues but generally their customer service is very good.
  21. Amazing transformation, I am very impressed! Just when you get down to your fast riding weight you decide to give it up!!!!
