  1. Awesome thank you! Spare bearings, wheel and now seals are on the list of spare parts to have with me when towing.
  2. Ah sorry I did not use the bearing buddy, I used something like this: http://www.amazon.com/KD-Tools-2775-Bearing-Packer/dp/B0002NYDYE Which produced the same result as your video where it pushed the old grease out and replaced with the new grease for the front bearing. I did not know there was a rear bearing as well, that would answer my question that I need to inspect it a little closer.
  3. Yes but I just repacked the bearings only using the bearing buddy actually. I did nothing behind the bearings within the hub itself. so i should put some grease within the hub itself you're saying? You're probably right that I'm over thinking it, I just don't want disaster to happen. I've always loaded up in the back of my truck bed so this is all new to me.
  4. also regarding the HF trailer, I cleaned and repacked the bearings with new grease. but my question is, do I need to fill the entire hub area with grease or just having the bearings and axle greased is ok?
  5. also, the large tote i was planning on purchasing (rubbermaid action packer) doesn't have the dimensions I was hoping for. What do you guys do for misc cargo on the trailer other than loading it in the car?
  6. I finally finished up my HF trailer and the next step will be planning out the load and making sure it balances correctly with the proper tongue weight. I was wondering how exactly to figure this out and to make sure I don't overload the tongue? Vehicle is rated for 200-300 lbs. Do I use a bathroom scale under a jack to measure or how does this work? The items that will be on the trailer are the bike, large tote filled with toolbox, track supplies, and other items tbd, ramp and canopy, stands and spare wheels. Any help would be appreciated!
  7. take the Kony posts to the Kony thread. I am here for teh funnies.
  8. unless you luckily have a cop friend that just happens to be on duty when you get pulled over (THANK YOU) don't even try it.
  9. 1199's won't be homologated until next year if i'm not mistaken. when you miss a qualifying sesh, it might be a bit too much. i agree though, as long as he can balance it out he'll be golden.
  10. O that explains it, so it's the dentist's fault for our lacking younger generation.
  11. The keynote is march 7. The release date is unknown although apple has gotten better about having a release soon after the keynote.
  12. Honestly, I don't have the margin they do to be able to beat their price.

  22. Ride with our mystery rider onboard our AMA SBK Yamaha R1 at Gingerman dueling with our AMA SBK BMW S1000RR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWlYO8FH42k Here's a YouTube R1 video featuring the Team RidersDiscount.com YZF-R1 Superbike. The RidersDiscount.com Yamaha YZF-R1 was built to AMA Superbike specifications using the best aftermarket Yamaha parts and accessories available from Riders Discount. No aspect of the RidersDiscount.com R1 was overlooked: from the Ariete 90° valve stems to the Yamaha's crossplane engine and even the SharkSkinz bodywork was modified to make it a potent track weapon. The only thing that stopped us from taking it even further was AMA Superbike rulebook! In this Yamaha R1 YouTube video, the RD R1 Yamaha does some laps at Gingerman Raceway while evaluating some different R1 suspension setup and R1 engine characteristics. The Yamaha is piloted by RD's own talented mystery rider who is seen here sliding the bike into, and out of -- just about every corner at Gingerman Raceway. When he's not spinning it up or backing it in, he's busy wheeling the bike ... everywhere. So, why do we have a mystery rider? At RidersDiscount.com, we buy, build and race our own bikes to better understand what products work and what's not worth putting on YOUR bike. And we do it all at our headquarters in Western Michigan, so we can bolt the parts on and try them out as soon as they become available.
