  1. Sure Justin,

  2. Scott,

    The X11 is only sold in Europe. The X11 CCT is only available in Europe. There have been a couple group buys for the X11 CCT arranged by Joe (rockmeup) but may not be any left. Maybe one of the guys will be willing to give theres up if you offer something in trade like cash, ass or grass, did I say that ?

    If you are interested in a US spec green dot Lifter set (CCT), don't go to the stealer, instead order one from "ME"

    I am flying out of town tomorrow for the weekend but could get you one out on Monday for $33.85 shipped in the US.

    I think it's because the exhaust header runs down that side.

    correct... I asked the same question 3 yrs ago

    Come on, don't pull my leg !! That is obviously not correct !!

    I agree with BDAZ XX on the Earth's Gravitational, Hemispherical Polarity thing myself. Sounds much more logical to me :wink:

    Exhaust Header runs down that side .......jeeeess.....I bet then the next thing will be said is it has something to do with Heating or rather Cooling as well ??

    If you can locate one in Miami, let me know and I will pick it up for you and send it up to you in Orlando if you like

    I live just north of Miami or you could probably get it shipped directly to you in Orlando

    What ever.....If I can help let me know.

  5. Big chain here in So Florida called Discount Auto Parts (DAP) all carry it I just found out. Called the store to confirm that it is in stock.

    Thanks for all the help

    Next time I will make the simple phone call before bothering this board !

  6. Where is the best place to locate "SeaFoam" to buy ??

    My neighbor just bought a 97 Mustang for her 17 year old son and wants to run a good engine cleaner through it.

    It Sea Foam readily available at Pepboys or Advanced Auto Parts etc or maybe Walmart ?

  7. Muzzy does not make a direct Bird replacement but my mechanic said he carries most all that Muzzy offers and can retrofit one in a stock Bird housing if I can get him a new housing/motor.

    I am watching ebay for a cheap fan out of a Bird used but woking.

  8. I have experimented with various options also and have decided to locate a second fan as well and replace the fan blade with a custom blade from Muzzy in the same stock housing. Much higher air volumn and only one fan would then be needed, and still hooked up to cut on and off per OEM spec's.

    I also run Engine Ice which is made and was developed here in South Florida for race track use.

    Now to just find a deal on a Bird Fan and get it done.

  9. Can I ask you, John, if there's a polishing product that you would recommend?

    There are many good products out there. Most all that are labeled as a Polish will work exactly like you need them to. I tell customers all the time, when asked this question, "Depends on whether you drive a Ford or a Chevy!" another words - personal preference.

    Meguires, Mothers, Simoniz all good name brands.

    I prefer "Factory Finish" but then that is the name brand I created and developed here at "Sonny's The Car Wash Factory". 11 years here overseeing the Professional Detailing Department and publishing a 50 page detailing catalog for the Car Wash Industry annually.

  10. For any fine scratch's or swirl marks --NEVER-- use a compond of any kind. A straight polish with only chemical abrasives will do the job the best. Stay away from anything will physical abrasives in it.

    When using any abrasive product you will be removing a layer of the clear coat to make the scratch disappear. You want to leave all the clear that you can for long term durability. Basically when polishing out a scratch you are actually lowering the outter surface of the clear coat to equal the depth of the scratch. The Clear coat is what maintains your UV protection for the paint underneath.

    Don't thin out the clear coat any more than you absolutely have to.

    A straight polish will round the edges of the scratch just enough so that the scratch is not visable to the naked eye. There will still be a slight indentation in the clear coat but the area immediately around the scratch will keep it's original thickness.

    Always follow up any polishing with a wax or glaze to help level the polished area and add some protection directly where the scratch was.

  11. Joel ,

    these are Only found here in the US. Actually made in Arizona I believe.

    That is why I sell so many overseas to Europe. I ship often to Hevet in the Netherlands and also about 10 -20 a month to Jaws in England.

    The Vista Cruise is the prefered Throttle Lock in Europe if people just know where to get them from.

    I sell alot of them but use a throttlemeister on my own bike !! :shock: How ironic is that. ?? I have the Throttlemeister on the right handlebar and a matching barender lock on the left handlebar. I wanted the matching look as well as the heavier weights to keep the SMOOOOOTH feeling to the hands. 8)

    Plus the barender is real handy for locking the helmet without removing the seat to use the OEM helmet lock.

    Gotta match -- looks/bling is everything !!
