I like the high desert side of the mountains...

F*ck the desert, high, low, or anywhere in-between. I'm so ready to never live in the desert ever again.

Where at exactly?

Lol, come on dubguy, read all the posts before posting up something that was already suggested, jeez

Besides, ind moto wasn't hiring.

So I have bad news and extremely good news.

The Bad: I'm not moving back to Ohio.

The Good: In 24 days I'll be working for Bazzaz as a tech in their R&D department. I am beyond excited about this opportunity, as it puts me right in the middle of the race and performance aspect of motorcycles.

You shit bricks....

Damnit man, I suck at Where's Waldo and I'm even worse at the "You'll Shit Bricks" pics.

Man it is not looking good for the job market in Ohio, least not in the Columbus area. Waiting to here back from one shop and one more to contact then I'm out of ideas.

From some gixxer 1000 squid: "You own a 600? why don't you get a liter bike, they're faster."

my response: "lets go ride the twisties tomorrow, if you can keep up, I'll buy a 1000."

Well it's not exactly a small school. Three shifts of classes, mornings, afternoons, and evenings, new students starting every 6 weeks, 3 buildings. Plus multiple different manufactures to choose from, he could go there and I would have no idea. I'm in evening classes so I never interact with the morning kids and only sometimes with the afternoon guys.

Might have one? Skin kid with blondish hair, funny as hell.

Nope, not the Chris I had class with then. He from Ohio?

Independent Motorsports was looking for a tech not long ago....might try talking to them, theyre a sponsor on here.

I already shot Justin an email

Did you have class with a Christopher Porch?

Uhh, does he have an A* tattoo on his forearm?

Greetings my long lost friends in, apparently extremely rainy, Ohio!

My time here in Phoenix is finally coming to an end, and my graduation date is set for July 15th. Despite the year long riding weather and close proximity to some decent roads I have no desire to stay here after I graduate from MMI. Since starting at MMI I've been kicking ass and taking names, maintaining a 4.0 and perfect attendance; I'll be graduating with certs in Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha, and BMW. So if you know of any shops looking for an entry level tech please let me know. Oh and I suppose I would take pretty much any position except for lot tech, so let me know about any service writer or parts positions too.

Thanks Guys, hope to see you soon

I finally remembered to register in time this year!

i think they recommended to remove the chain if towing like that

Be easier to store a huge ass trailer if that were the case.

No I'm putting an 05 swing arm on with an 05 rear wheel. And if I could afford an 09 ZX6R I would buy one, but I can't, so I'm just doing a few upgrades on my 636 b/c it's still my favorite model of the ZX6R's.

Lol, the new wheels look way better, they're the six spoke design as opposed to the tri-spoke, plus I'm doing a swing arm swap and will be using the newer style rear wheel, so might as well get the newer front as well.

Rotors might or might not swap over, depends on the bolt spacing.

I have to 09 calipers, why would I want to put the 03 calipers on the 09 forks? I'd rather just buy the new wheel.

Sorry I realize now that I forgot to mention that I had the entire front end off the 09 except for the wheel.

The old rotors are smaller than the new ones and don't contact the whole pad.

Not that hard, thank god! Kawasaki did not change the bearing and race sizes in the steering stem, so while you will need the new triple tree and clip-ons, you wont need to do anything else. The new triples are needed b/c the Showa BPFs are larger in diameter than the KYB forks that come stock on the 03-04's (I think anything up to an 08 are the same diameter b/c they're all KYB's).

Before:

After:

Another thing, while the 03 rim does fit on with the 09 axle and spacers, the rotors don't match up to the calipers, so I'm gonna have to buy an 09 wheel before my first track day in March.

The project isn't completely done yet since I don't have the cables routed, and old switches mounted, or my steel braided lines switched over, but I'll get pictures up when it's done

God the txt messaging ones are f*cking hilarious

Alimony lol

Wooooo, polar bear pin!

I was waiting for him to bring down the fire, but I'm getting disappointed by the lack of retaliation.

Why is it that most of the accessories that are made for this bike are either tasteless, useless, or pointless?

You just described Busas.
