    do over

    This saved my ass on tire wear. This is the mobile link so if it doesn't work Google Dave Moss Tire Wear and there us a 104 minute video that goes through all types of dampening, spring, pressure, and geometry issues that cause tires to be eaten up. It took me some time but mine is dialed in so my tire wears perfectly. Plus as a noob I'm too inexperienced to tell what my bike is doing sometimes, but I can read a tire and learn now. http://m.ustream.tv/recorded/6516891?rmalang=en_US Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2

    do over

    This is what I did to my bike and the basics aren't cheap. I would do the exact same thing over again too. I'm 240lbs and springs/ suspension service made a world of difference. Sonic springs are $79. Ruben at 35 motorsports hooked it up on the rear shock service and spring. $12 throttle tube is a must. The bike had stomp grips on it when I got it too. I had a dyno tune after I installed my PCIII due to a flat spot at 7500rpm. That was money well spent as the powerband was smoother and much more friendly. You really don't need more than that. Get a set of good sport tires like the Dunny Q2's or the Michelin Power Pures and ride the wheels off that Gixxer! Also save your $ because you'll be going through a lot of rubber as you get faster. Optional for the Gixxer, depending on year, is shimming up the rear shock and flushing the forks with the triple trees to raise the front end. The Gixxers weren't laid out the best from the factory and this keeps the bike a bit more on its nose for a quicker tip in and more stable in a straight line. There are fork extender caps for $200 but I'll wait until I'm in advanced to start worrying about it. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  3. It came off my 2007 750 as I am way to fat for it at 240lbs. I was going to pitch it but if somebody needs it they can have it. I think OEM good for a 180lb-200lb rider. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2

  5. I started this thread just for you Magley! And I'm doing this from a crappy phone app so if I missed the forum lets have the mods move it. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  6. Not only are his sideburns trustworthy, but he owned Obama. I was not impressed with Romney until tonight. Maybe I won't cry when I vote this year. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  7. It was a blast running with everybody this year. I learned a bunch thanks to some great coaches and good riding partners. Unfortunately I ended the season by digging holes in the grass off turn 7 with my pegs, but I hit a personal best lap time before I bit it. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  8. See this is the kind of thing that happens when the internet is not used for its intended purpose of porn, as both hands can not be used to type something hateful and stupid. Lets get back to basics. Look for bike parts, get sidetracked with porn, then back to bike parts. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2

  10. Somehow these guys turn a FS thread into high octane man on man action. It is purely magical how quickly this goes from 0 to flaming drag queen transvestite gay. I'll bet if they could turn lap times as fast as they get jiggy on OR Moto-GP would be flipped upside down, and for the first time KY would sponsor a racing team. And this isn't your frat boy type of "dude that's gay" oh no. They triple down with disturbing mental pictures like balloon knots. I bow down to this as they are black belts in the art.

  11. But do you spit dip and curse those damn Jap bikes? If not then you are on our side! Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  12. Dude, that is a steal. I've seen the bike too and it's pretty sharp for a track bike. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  13. X1000000 on this. It always seems to be some jerk in a busted F150 or a Dodge with nuts hanging off the back of it. Apparently because their bucket is worth as much as the accessories installed on it they cop a serious attitude. Also thou shall not pass or you will be tailgated and you will respect the power of his rusty heap. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  14. That is plausible in that area. I drive it all the time and people are known to do the screw around. Delaware is also full of D-Bags that would pull a crowbar. I'm sure he didn't go terminator style and shoot on the bike. We will see what comes of it. Until then we shall enjoy speculation. And if we didn't have cars we wouldn't have road rage so lets ban cars. No arrest made means it was likely self defense and they are investigating. Plus people that roll a BMW bike aren't known as thugs that fly off the handle and kill at will. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  15. Lil Wayne isn't even alive. He's a demon sign of the apocalypse. When him, Nick Minaj, Chris Brown, and Drake all gather in one spot the sky will open and hell will rain upon us. They also filmed a movie there. It had Harrison Ford in it and there are Russian signs still hanging there as props. I went last year and it was AMAZING!!!! I think they do day tours as more of a history type thing but not this time of year. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  16. I'll be the fat kid running the gray Gixxer 750 in I. If there was a food cart I would be pitted next to it. Are you running Advanced, Intermediate, or Novice? Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  17. I disagree. You can't get hammered at 7 a.m. and ride around with 3 buddies on the scooter. Seriously though, you can get hurt just as bad on a scooter as a full size bike. You run the same risk, but look silly while doing so. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  18. Statistics aren't racist. There is a large disparity between blacks and other racial groups of unwed parents and no father around, which has been identified as the root of many problems. Stating statistics and fact doesn't make you a racist either. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  19. We should have a spring thread of who actually finished their winter projects. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  20. That is pretty shocking even in a more relaxed sales environment of a motorcycle store. I'm glad to hear his riding skills are as bad as his people skills. I bought my VTX there back in 2005. They were pretty much bags as well. I had to chase a salesman down. They said I couldn't get financed unless I had a down payment. So when we went to sign they applied for a Yamaha card and used $2000 from that for a down payment. Now that I'm in banking I realize he was full of it and probably getting a spiff for selling a credit card. I also sold cars so now I'm educated and can spot B.S from a mile away. Either way I got the bike paid off early and still love it. I've dealt with much better since then. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  21. The manufacturer of the gun is who they'll sue. That and the police for attempting to arrest him for carjacking and causing undue stress. If he would have been allowed to roam free with a loaded gun stealing cars nobody would have been harmed until the police escalated it:what: Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  22. Was the disturbing part the face of Shep or the guy shooting himself. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  23. Wow what an asshat. You'll get that around the Hilltop sometimes. Glad to hear the law got in the mix before it got ugly. You have some self control my friend. Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
  24. Finishing putting my VTX black together. I got a little occupied since I discovered track days. I stripped the entire thing for paint, powder coat, chrome, and polising Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
