I've got a few mods planned for the winter break... 1. Ohlins steering damper 2. Sato rear sets 3. Stainless brake lines front and rear 4. New mount for backup camera monitor 5. Fresh brake fluid 6. Fresh front pads

"Gets nasty, get down to business (smirk)" I have seen that before, but dig the engineering behind it.

This is the part that I got http://www.oppracing.com/images/13632-gilles-tooling-variobar-spare-parts-50mm-fork-clamp/?price_flag=cdn and when i put it on the top of the fork tube, there is a gap of several mm. I am confused. My friend (alcohol3232) has the exact same forks, and he has a 50mm clamp, and it works just fine. I'm not sure what the discrepancy would be.

Ok I'm picking up what you're throwing down. Unfortunately, I don't have a caliper (analog or digital) so I have to beg for help. Thank you though.

I'm confused. Are you talking about the brake calipers? I mean a digital caliper to measure something.

I need to know what the diameter of the top of the fork cartridge is (It sticks out above the triple), but in mm. I ordered a part today that was 50mm, and I think I needed like a 45 or 47. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys Drew

Last I knew Micron pipes don't have rivets. Or at least my Micron didn't. They pride themselves on the only rivetless system out there.

2500 for a 07 ZX6R? Wow, wish I could jump on that.

I agree, it could have been handled better, and you would think it would be common freaking courtesy to call Kevin, but people don't have that, and dealers sure as hell don't have that. But I think starting a thread advising to avoid them is a bit brash.

Sorry brother, I have to agree with Isaac's Papa. I worked with EVERY BMW dealership in the nation, so I have good understanding of the dealerships. Does it suck for you, yeah, it does. Was it a waste of your time, unfortunately, in the end it was. But I sort of agree the guy taking the car to his family is a perk of working there, or a perk of having family work there. How about the lady I worked with at BMW that had her sons E46 M3 serviced at a dealership, and they dropped a bolt into the cylinder head, and then when the guy started his engine, it completely shit out a few seconds later. The dealership lied to the customer, lied to me, and lied to their regional rep as to what happened. BMW had one of their master technicians look at the car to determine what happened, and found the problem. That woman had the right to ask people on a forum to not work with the dealer, but I think your experience is not quite in the same ballpark. I've got even better examples than this one, but don't feel I should post it here. Believe me, I have some CRAZY stuff I have had to deal with. However, I respect where you are coming from, and know how you feel. Just my two cents I guess.

Those crazy Asians. The Dallas Cowboys could have saved a ton of cash by buying those Asian people instead of the big jumbotron. You can probably by Asians for pennies on the dollar VS anything in the US. I keed, I keed.

Yes that are.

Thats awesome

I do enjoy chili. I make a pretty good beer chili. Unfortunately, it doesnt even compare to spaghetti warehouse's beer chili

I think OR just found a group venture. I've got some cash stashed away I can plunk down.

Fuck that......i'm laid off, give me a bailout! Mother fucker

Same here. Damnit!

Regardless of how much I don't like an athlete, think they get paid too much, or just in general don't care for them, I still have respect for their talent. Obviously this guy is a different story.

Lived in Dublin for two years, and I really have no complaints. My biggest complaint is the traffic. And the traffic is only really a problem on certain days, and certain time of days.

My wife told me a funny joke the other day. What do a Hoover and a Harley have in common? (Besides the typical, they both suck.) The dirt bag is just in a different spot. No offense to the HD riders. Just a little humor.

I knew a dude in high school that went to Value City and tried on a pair of jeans. He kept the new ones, and put the old ones back on the rack. a Few hours later the police came knocking on his door. The dude left his school schedule in his pocket, so they just went to his house to pick him up.

I heard the AMA is thinking about starting a bicycle class. Lance Armstrong has been banned since he only has one ball, and that makes him lighter than "regular" racers. On a serious note, the AMA is going in the complete wrong direction, IMO at least, but I feel like I speak for a lot of people.

That's unfortunate.

I like it. It's something different
