$500 and a date with Brent plus a guaranteed road hummer from him on your way home from dinner.

I find it so hard to believe that JRMMiii has not jumped all over this post now that it has hit moderate nerdness.

I here that fuel in the tank will help them start and stay running for long periods of time.

Does this mean you're not coming to play with us?

PM RVTPilot...he might have one.

Meh, you might have and I don't listen to anything you have to say.

Ha! We're in the same boat then! I'm always playing catch up to these young'uns.

I'm sure it will look just like Jinu's wire job.

You have that caliper sorted? I will have the mighty vac in my trailer if you need it.

Good to hear. Did you cut a hole in the panel so you won't be taking it on and off all the time?

HollyDouche For someone that uses Summer Eve regularly to keep his hole fresh for track days you'd think he would know how to spell douche right.

Ah, I know Marty has some "personal" pics of her somewhere. I'll have to stop by to see him this week and see what he's got.

I wouldn't have to stick up for it if you would just accept that what I tell you is true and not be a post whore about it.

Wait...who's the one that makes the sammaches almost nekked? If it's him I think I'll make my own.

I love it! New guy comes in and with his very first forum post puts Craig in his place. Thanks, Dan! You're my new hero. But in Craig's defense, he was probably only like 9 years old in '98. He still sucks searching the interwebz (unless it's for ghey pron).

She loves Craig's nut too. It's a family thing.

Post the video or it didn't happen. If no video take back over to your old place and do it again with video this time.

This does anger the Hulk very much. I'll miss your videos of almost ass packing guys at the track.

Dude...you are really killing me. Why couldn't I have worked that into the deal with the trailer!?!?!

Worst case is you have to put a coil in. Try running a tap in the hole and see if the bolt holds tight. If not, then just run out to an auto parts store and pick up the a pack of coils only. It will list what size drill and tap you need to put the coil in. Shit, no more than an $10 fix if you have the bit and tap. There's plenty of meat around that boss to drill and tap for a coil.

I would love to be all over this. Damn it!

It isn't super expensive. Kit's for a single size aren't too much, I'd say $50 or less but you get everything you need like the drill bit and tap needed. You can ride the bike as long as the other three are good and tight. Hell, if Pauly doesn't have one for it let me know. I'll let you or Pauly borrow my kit and he can fix it for you if that's what you want.

I also have a kit exactly for this since I had to do mine earlier this season. I want to say it's an M10 if I recall correctly. It is easy, but you have to know to do a couple things to get proper access to the hole/boss on the head. The problem is the drill required to open up the hole is larger than that in the frame so you can't just go straight in at it. The only way I found to get good access to it was to remove all but the rear lower engine mount bolt, remove the airbox completely and let the motor rotate forward and down to get at it. Not a huge amount of extra work but it does give you the best chance at doing it right. Now this was for the slider on the right side of the bike. I don't recall if the left side is the same but I think so. Just an FYI for ya.

Chasing the hole with a tap probably isn't going to get you far. Odds are it was cross threaded the first time which mean the hole is now crap. If you really want to fix it for good, leave that fairing off and cut a hole in it for the slider. Then get a helicoil kit and fix that hole on the engine. I have some first hand experience with this.
