modular

I like these new versions as they are solid with a large alloy piece that the slider threads fully on to. Plus, they are only $40.

Just got these in the mail today. Beefy sons-a-guns. They are solid with a big alloy piece that is threads on to. I also installed the '06 599 engine mount spacers while I had it apart as they are a little larger diameter than the '04 599 version.

Instead of clip-ons have you considered a pair of Suburban Machinery bars? http://www.suburban-machinery.com/GS500F.htm

That's why I add these under muh Sliders: http://evs-sports.com/store/product.php?productid=17692&cat=272&page=1 http://www.amazon.com/SHIFT-ENFORCER-GUARDS-BLACK-ADULT/dp/B005WVZEFS

I concur.

Just got done with the suspension upgrades on the 599 and all back together.

Brandon used to work for Auto Works. He left there to start his own shop which is right down the street from me.

There is a place I use for all of my automotive window tinting in Sharonville that does complete details as well. It is called Auto Works (Carshine). Number is 733-4604. Owners name is Dana (it's a dude). He has been there for a very long time and has a good rep.

Here is a reasonably priced option for an Ohlins: http://www.indysuperbike.com/Ohlins_Street_Performance_Shock_Honda_CB_900F_Hornet-7111278.html

Though I pretty much like the entire timeline of the "911" this is my lust after model:

What, you mean I can't just put it in gear and apply all that force to the trans?? LOL.

Nope, I have a new JT 45 tooth sprocket in the gee-rag. I was going to just use the rear sprocket but the bike has 10K on it. Between the mileage and the fact that it would shorten then wheel base and in turn effect the leverage applied to the rear shock I am just replacing it all and doing it right.

Nathan, PM me your pricing on the following items: 1) JT Sprockets P/N JTF1371.15 15T steel front sprocket 2) EK Chains 525SRX 120 link natural finish 3) EK 525SRX-SLJ Screw Rivet Link These parts are going on a 2004 Honda 599 (CB600f Hornet)

I think I'll try the screw link and with the money saved on not buying the chain tool I'll upgrade the EK chain to the MVXZ version and still be ahead of the game.

Yup, found it on Amazon as well.

That is a nice alternative to the chain tool. Thanks for that! I had planned on cutting my old chain off with my Dremel anywho.

I am going to go to a 15/45 drivetrain on my '04 Honda 599. Stock is 15/42 with a 110 link 525 chain. I will be staying with a 525 chain and replacing the sprockets with steel JT Sprocket units. My chain and chain tool choice is as follows: Chain: EK Chain 525SRX X-Ring 120 link in a natural finish- http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WK6D86/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=A1ONN4W7TBXNWO Chain Tool: BikeMaster Heavy-Duty Chain Breaker/Rivet Tool- http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WJ3LPU/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&smid=A36ZNJ2D0VV9LR Good choice on the 2 above items?

Awesome ride! Not seeing this sitting around too long with the choice upgrade done to it and the low miles.

I wear Slider Kevlar jeans with Shift Enforcer knee guards and EVS TUG Impact Riding Shorts.

Thanks! I'm freakin' jazzed. Been wanting a 599 for a while now. Got a deal and already have Dunlop Q2's, an Ohlins HO 321 rear shock, Race Tech .90 fork springs and Gold Valve on order for it. Come on spring!!

Happy Saturnalia!

I went and picked this up the 24th......that's right! Happy Saturnalia to me!!
