Almost ready to ride(winter work complete)(ALMOST)
serpentracer replied to 2talltim's topic in Daily Ride
I wouldn't know without a set of feelers in my hands and your bike in front of me. lol but .23 -.30 is kinda big. if your min for the exhausts valves were .23 for example and you couldn't get the .23 under it. you know it needs adjusted but not how much. now you have to slide the one feeler under it that just slightly drags on it. that is your measurement. my factory manual has a chart to go by to determine what size you need based on your measurement and what they installed. take mine for example, my exhausts measured .19. (the min is .23mm) they installed a 185 pad. following the chart, if my measurement was between .19-.22 and the 185 pad, I need a 180 pad. and it put my new measurement dead center of the specs again. -
you're never going to find pron over the airwaves anyway. that's why the internet was invented. duh.

dude .25-.30 mm is a huge number in valve specs. that's the "in spec" limits of mine. -

sweet to see you got it all squared away and it's better than ever! ps I think andy is one of those guys who always used rotella....just sayin. -
the reason you're picking up so many stations now is because of the digital signal. the drawback to a digital signal is if it's weak...it pauses. instead of like the old days it would just be fuzzy.

I feel ya on the mods/maint thing. I've been doing stuff I've never really wanted to do before. after seeing my buddy's 04 R6 put down 116.5hp at the dyno (typical R6 is right at 100 +/- 1-2 hp) I have been itching to buy all the same stuff for mine. lol his bike can walk mine like 10 bike lengths in a race to 110. MUST GET SAME STUFF lol so far I've done 1. valve adjustment 2. graves slide stops 3. bmc filter (best option for the R6) 4. factory pro +4 ignition advancer 5. power commander 6. factory pro super flare V stacks 7. I'm putting a set of 05 throttle bodies on mine. they're bigger than the 03/04 bike's. (he doesn't have that mod muhahahah) so I had to get the 05 airbox that fits on the throttle bodies. and a few other things that I wanted... 1. adjustable rearsets 2. double bubble windscreen 3. new ferodo sinter grip pads 4. had front rotors resurfaced at a machine shop 5. removed the AIS (air injection system) 6. and a new paint job (I paint my own stuff) and I'm going to take it to DTM in a few months to get a custom tune. but I'm going to load the map from his bike first just to see if I get the same or close to his 116 mark. might not work right with the 05 throttle bodies though. -
well I got to hand it to cycle specialties. I ordered a new bmc filter on sat and it was at the shop on wed. and they're closed on monday. that must mean they put orders in right away. and the price was pretty much what it would have been to order it online with shipping. we need to talk about their tire prices though. lol

email arai and tell them yours broke. they probably have a warranty. that's what I did with my shoei when I dropped it on the rear spoiler. they GAVE me a new spoiler. -
I don't think there is a tv on the market right now without the tuners built in. now that digital is the standard.

well if you want to get technical I see 4 spots for screws....4X's the worry? besides, slide it all the way in to make a shorty. isn't the idea of a shorty to help keep it from touching the ground?

I love it when people freak out about weather changes. lol humans have been around for like 10 min on earth's time line. it has changed in the past and it's going to change again. get used to things being different.

I don't think that thing is actually running like this one does. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVV-r7_9XKs&feature=player_embedded http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0HJjvyLj9E&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfpdgLrcUlc&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDDIrhxGQ8g&feature=related -
my hp has a asus motherboard. in fact it has all name brand parts stock. hitachi hard drive hyundai memory (odd I know) asus mother board with Nvidia north and south bridge chips Nvidia graphics card antec power supply samsung dvd burners Nvidia network card antec fans Realtek HD 7.1 surround sound card HP is a lot better than dell and compaq (hp owns compaq) and probably gateway as well. although gatways have become a lot better too. nothing is better than one you build from scratch though.

face book is such a bad idea. I know everywhere you look about running a business you see the do the facebook crap to promote your company yada yada yada...but you can't control people from making bad comments on your page for the whole world to read. I do it to companies that burnt me. take the berry company for example. you probably even heard of them. you called to have your phone number in the yellow pages. yeah good luck dealing this those people. they are very disceitful with how the conduct their business. and expect to shell out a few hundred bucks a month just for a simple phone listing in one single category. and when you tell them no thanks a few days later they tell you tough crap it's already a done deal when you asked about the price. then they report you to the BBB if you don't pay up.

real parents teach their kids about everything. that includes drinking and sex. the wild girl at parties is usually the girl who grew up sheltered and not allowed to do anything.

serpentracer replied to oldschoolsdime92's topic in Tech and Tips
yeah andy rode the living piss out of that thing. the first gen R6 (99-02)were known for a 2nd gear issue as well. yamaha used only 3 dogs on the gears. in 03 they added 2 more for a total of 5 and no one had issues since. -
fuck em. lol

I just paypal'd him the money. I don't know what to tell you madcat but it's mine.

I hate when some of them don't give you a tracking number. I think it should be mandatory if you are shipping stuff like an engine to someone.
