  1. Struggling with how an exhaust component can have any bearing on oil performance.
  2. I do 3k on my gsxs1000f and did filter the first 2 times, but it is a hateful bitch to do the filter on that bike so depending on what the oil looks like coming out this time I may go every other change on the filter. This is with rotella t6. First change at 600, 2nd at 3600 and it was a bit dark for my liking, but I beat on that bike pretty hard so kinda expected that, plus things still wearing in.
  3. Ftfy. Looking at maybe camping one night, its fucking expensive and I have lots of bills.
  4. Who all is going? I'm thinking about it but want to have bubbies there to do hoodrat shit with.
  5. Breaker bar on socket, sit on bike with foot on rear brake. Apply force to breaker bar with other foot.
  6. Epidurals for pain and PT to strengthen my back and prevent further injury. Surgery is a last resort, we are trying to sell our house and buy a new one and I cant afford to be on temporary disability for 6 weeks at 80% of 40 hours when I work 50+ to stay comfortable. Being on the bike is definitely less pain than driving my impreza. Seating position is 100% the reason.
  7. Found out my back strain was much more serious. 2 bulging discs and one ruptured. Pain is starting to subside now but was pretty intense through all of June and most of July. Still managed to put over a thousand miles in tho. Heading out in a few.
  8. Yeah I don't even get off for another 15 minutes.
  9. I'm looking to raise some hell in amish country here after work if anyone wants to meet in the canton/massillon area and ride down towards sugar creek.
  10. You are correct, it appears the lever goes directly onto the shift shaft. @Fiend I may have discovered your problem, or at least this guy had the same problem and it turned out to be a loose screw holding the shift star on. Easy to diagnose. Easy to fix.
  11. Er6n is just a naked ninja 650. Only difference is fairings.
  12. Had a Yamaha that would do this. Turns out one of the bolts holding the rearsets on had backed out. Not enough to feel it in the peg, but enough that the shift linkage no longer operated correctly.
  13. Eh. I think everyone should wear a helmet but dont think we should empower the state to enforce that belief. The less laws, the better. Remember, there is no law so insignificant that the state wont kill you to enforce it.
  14. Large, busy and rapidly growing tool and die shop. Looking for machinists to run lathes, mills, centerless grinders etc. Great pay, great benefits, mandatory 10+ hrs overtime/wk. Located in north Canton 2 minutes from I77. I've been with this company for about a year and a half and in that time they've added 40,000 sq feet, bought about a dozen new machines and hired on maybe 15 guys and they aren't done growing. PM me if interested.
  15. Fuck me, just checked the date. Day late and a dollar short as usual.
  16. I work til noon 5 minutes from that Wendy's then have to run home to take dogs out, but we could maybe make this work depending on where you're riding and if you wanna follow me home and meet my dogs.
  17. It's cool, had to bust em right back. Wish I would have looked at your ride now, I've never seen one in the wild before.
  18. This. Split washers are useless, yet engineers keep using them because reasons. AvE did some experiments on his channel and showed that split lock washers dont augment the breaking torque of a bolt at all. It's just another item on the BOM.
  19. To be fair, I rode past the parking spot and could only see the duc because he parked behind you. All I could tell about your bike was it was kawi because of the color. Sorry you got so butthurt you resorted to coming here to cry and blow snot bubbles over it. Guess having a big boy bike doesnt make you a big boy.
  20. Throw rocks at it for an hour, douse in quick detailer, dry with weedwacker.
  21. I'm fuckin over it dude. Find someone else to have a useless argument with.
