  1. For $70.00 bucks you can get stiffer springs from Sonic Springs. You can adjust preload by using different length spacers if you are on a budget. Have you checked your SAG? A little thicker oil may be all you need, but verify the sag.

    No more Indy MotoGP?

    Indy had 140000 spectators over the weekend, this is inline with most tracks in Europe, with the exception of a few. Indy looked empty because it can seat 400000 in stands not counting the infield.

    Maybe this will be the place... http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2015/Aug/150819a.htm
  4. Cycle Gear also carries VP. I have seen premix and one of the road going variants there.

    No more Indy MotoGP?

    MOTOGP did not race at Laguna this year. And I really do not believe it will come back anytime soon. WSBK raced there this year, but I do not see that lasting. It would be nice to have a world class road course in the east coast/mid-west! COTA is a 20 hour drive...if only they had given more thought to Barber and made it a little safer and larger, we would have seen MOTOGP and WSBK there over the years. They would also have to invest heavily in the facilities adding garages and such for either class to take Barber serious.
  6. Maybe you were lucky, my experience has not been so good.
  7. Show me any Italian company that has good customer service? It's like a unicorn...

    Rotors

    The galfer, braking, and brake tech rotors will give you more friction and better stopping power than either of the EBC offerings, but the better friction is do to more iron and they are prone to rust if ran in the rain. I have had them rust setting in a reasonably dry garage...but they sure work well! Have you tried cleaning the bobbins? They tend to get dirty with brake dust and road grime and stop floating.
  9. $600.00 OBO I can send video tonight.
  10. What are you looking to pay? I have a Briggs 6500 continues 8750 surge never used (other than monthly test) that I would be willing to part with. 15 gallon tank Electric start

    If you are in NEO, I would go to All Seasons in Wooster. Great guys and the service department is top notch for a dealer.

    This is correct ^^^
  13. This is why if after first call they do not fix the problem file a complaint with PUCO. If you have to call them again (usually they call you after a complaint is filed), let them know you files a complaint and you will go directly to management and they will fix your problem. They suck because they can...don't let them treat you like shit!
  14. Oil consumption only becomes a problem once the oil has been turned to a thick fibery sludge. Run synthetic change it a little early and do not worry about it. A cold start will tell you if it has problems...look for smoke at startup.
  15. Roush is a volume dealer and have great prices on new bikes. They suck with used and service.
  16. Yes been in many anti-dive forks. I am in NEO (Medina) and willing to help. I have all the fork tools. Shoot me a PM.
  17. File a complaint on the PUCO website, I assure you it will light a fire under their arse. Had to go this route twice, once with TWC and once with ATT. Both instances I had a call from them very quickly and technicians were dispatched same day. If you use your home internet connection for work related items make sure you add that to your complaint.
  18. Nice Rex! Love the ohlins...lots of Greg Couch goodies on there?
  19. Stock appearance, but have added the following... Ivan's jet kit Yosh Slip-on Kwik +3 Advance Front Traxxion AK20's and Sonic 1.1 kg/mm springs Rear 2013 S1000RR shock and 11kg/mm spring
  20. I have a Gen 1 (2005). May be the best bike I have ever owned for do it all!
  21. My two favorite IPA's Pliny the Elder (Russion River) Aroma Coma (Drakes)
  22. Honda just repainted my 2010 Civic with 140000 miles for this same reason. The paint was not peeling too bad, but would come off easily if coaxed.
