what would be a good place to meet up? The area we go is near Olentangy Liberty HS off Home Rd. Let me know if you can do that and ill PM you my number and we can work something out.

if you've done it yourself i would like to tackle this myself (with you) ill let you know when i get it. i called extreme and they quoted me 220 for the labor which isn't too bad. tuning wont be hard, ordering from Ivan's, and he's got the tuning numbers i need to tune it just right with the configuration i have.

yea yea alright...maybe there is one but im telling ya if you go there you will become dumber for it.

hey guys i plan on doing a few engine mods this summer beyond my garage mechanic abilities... the thing i need the most installed is a jet kit for my bike. Anyone know of quality shops that can install and tune it properly (would be sweet if they had a dyno...) anything but competition accessories i have had nothing but bad experiences with their service dept. prefer a shop sportbike oriented so i can get a mech that knows a little something about my bike and the kit being installed. any suggestions?? thanks

i thought that was for all the guys that chromed there bikes and dragged and did illegal things... lol dont go to taco bell at night unless you have ample chrome and a small penis to hang with those guys... anyway harb i PM'd you let me know what you want to do! and welcome!

if your on campus dude PM me and my buddy (has yet to post) have found a road about 30 minutes from here that is not to well known. playerpro has also ridden it with us and gotten his stamp of approval lol we'll take you up there if you want. These aren't your best twisties like hocking but its good enough to make you feel good in your pants. edit: just looked at your bike and your other posts "member of the motorcycle club..." (is that me your referring to??)... do you ride the blue 650r and park on north campus in the nosker lot (near fresh)? If thats you then let me know.

if you ever get rid of those headers ben lemme know funny thing is those headers can fit on my 99 and provide phenomenal power gains...with a rejet of course.

if they are talking on their phone since my horn isn't worth a damn i just hold my rev's right at 9-10k and see what they do. it usually gets their attention and then i wave at them

how much does it cost to do drag at kilkare? is it cost/run or cost/night?

Im from dayton but im at Ohio State right now...ill be back in the summer and looking to go to trackdays at mid ohio or putnam if anyone has a trailer and has extra room let me know!

might be a rivet hiding somewhere

my winter project bike recently completed:

now that my bike is fixed ill for sure be there! as long as its ok to ride in...

o well if you already have all the equipment then ya man go for it. i didn't realize you had all that.

this is mine: im at Ohio State right now but look for me during the summer in the beavercreek and surrounding areas!

just spray paint it if your not looking for perfection. i spray painted mine for a total of $30 using duplicolor cans. You can't tell unless you get real close, i didn't want to spend ~$500 for a good looking paint job and then go to the track and mess it up... click on it for a bigger pic...

well hopefully there is another opportunity in the near future like this. just my luck a piece inside my shift shaft assembly decided to break and i wont get the replacement til after the dyno day

haha yea ok...

so i few of you might know (well actually just two of you) that i have had trouble with shifting my bike. meaning it has false neutrals or wont go into first/second or once i do get it into gear it pops into neutral on its own etc... majore PITA. i posted this problem on the yamaha forum and most if not all replied with it being the detent spring (spring that helps return the lever to normal position after the gear change has taken place). well without actually opening up the shift case i just assumed detent spring and ordered a new one along with a gasket and some other misc parts etc. so today i opened it just to make sure that was really the case, but to my sadness i did not find a detent spring sitting on the bottom of the case housing, but rather a small metal chip about the size of a fingernail. looked around to find what it was from and nothing from the inside of the housing, so i looked at the cover i took off with the shaft still attached along with the arm thingy(?) and there it was, i found where it used to be located. went to mrcycles and found the part to be around 44 bucks. But i am desperate need to get my bike running sooon, so i called the local dealer and am going to see if i can get it overnight ::crossing fingers:: here are the pics of the cover i took off with the shift shaft assembly still on: the arrow indicated where the piece im holding (the piece found at the bottom of the housing) is supposed to go. this is zoomed out a bit. the piece circled is not supposed to be stopped by the metal piece but since that metal part is broken off it can spin freely. and this is what is causing my shifting problems. i am 99% sure of it this time. but now at least i have a spare detent spring in case this one goes bad :shrug anyone disagree with me or is this a pretty good guess that this is what is causing all my problems?

where do you go to school? i, like yourself, cant do trackdays until after that same date (i have a feeling we both go to OSU...) but id be willing to tag along with anyone, i dont really have a car or anything like that to take my bike to a track. i plan on going with sportbike tracktime sometime after june maybe july. how many bikes can a "rent-a-trailer" hold?

is the dyno still going rain or shine?

we still meeting at the shell station beforehand?

is this on rain or shine? ill be there no matter what (as long as its still on) i love to ride in the rain!! edit: i just checked and its just scattered showers for thursday now.

ok hoping to get this in on saturday if the weather hold off ::crossing fingers:: if not then we will have to postpone this ride to a later date as my mom wants to do something with me on sunday

me?
