  1. i relocated my brake reservoir, and rotated my brake lever down to where i like it. this is putting more stress on the hose connecting the two than i'd like hence the reason for this tubing. tygon 2075 is the only tubing (other than the OEM rubber) that will hold up to the brake fluid and not sweat or degrade over time. I used this stuff on the old bike for a few years and never had any problems. i like kurvey girl a lot and usually do order from her, but im in the process of bleeding my brakes and was kind of wanting to get it done in one shot (i was an idiot and started before i had all the parts, like this tubing...) hue jass, you wouldn't happen to have any left over tubing would you?
  2. anybody know where i can find some tygon 2075 clear tubing locally? i know i can find it easily online, i was just curious if i could pick it up a little faster. plastic supply or chemical supply stores is the usual category its listed under if that helps. reconrat, where you at dude?!
  3. now is not the time to "smidge." If he wanted to smidge, he should have done it on the original title transfer (but obviously he screwed that up). IF this is a legit audit, they will likely go through accounts and see how much was actually withdrawn or loaned out for the bike.
  4. o man sorry dude, yea it got sold. lock thread please.

    chachi put your damn helmet on boy!
  6. LOLOLOLOLOLOL COPTER you are wise beyond my years. of course a "free" bike is going to throw a red flag kid. you're going to jail for 24 years for tax evasion and fraud.
  7. its FI light lol, not an F1 car... do you have a PC3? the R6 i have has a butterfly valve in the exhaust (ex-up) and you can unhook them and leave the butterfly open. is this a slip on or a full system (why would you...)? is the o2 sensor still hooked up? i wouldn't clip any wires just yet... try the pc3 option first. its most likely that with this slip on the o2 sensor isn't on anymore and the reason its running so rough. this will be solved with a pc3.
  8. i can't tell you about your specific bike but, on sportbikes that i've had the clutch is a dial that is used for minor adjustments and if you follow the clutch cable you will find a nut and locknut for major adjustments. the distance really can't be adjusted without affecting the engagement point unless you get aftermarket levers. for the brakes there is a dial indicator, the lower the number "1" the farther away it is from the bar, whereas 5 is closer. adjusting the sensitivity of the brakes is more changing the fluid and getting rid of the air bubbles.
  9. i super surprized by your signature everytime cypress.

    i joined, im not much for meetings and whatnot, but i'll certainly go on rides.
  13. one thing you need to learn right off the bat dude is NEVER take it to a shop. there will be at least ONE person here who will be willing to do it for the cost of a 6 pack, or if you're not 21 the dollar amount of a 6 pack. now that that's out of the way, welcome. enjoy that yamaha and make sure to get it to the track where it belongs, also just a heads up: it doesn't like traffic... at all. so if you're buying this to cruise up and down high st with, its not the bike for you.
  14. pics: it looks a little frankenstein right now but from the middle of the header (under the oil pan) to the coupler, im going to spray paint with high heat black paint considered making a bracket here, but there is no need sticker will be gone too... stealing other peoples pics who have done this: comparison pic .
  15. i successfully installed a 2003-2005 header onto my 2007 R6. pros: gets rid of cat converter power gains (tune w/ new numbers coming, i have a baseline of 106 stock) -- supposed to be the same power gains as a full system cuts around 8 pounds off the bike based on my scale cons: some fabrication needed (see below) not the full weight savings as a real full system what this involves-- purchase a 2"ID to 1.75"OD coupler from auto parts store ($2.00) go to exhaust shop and have them expand the 2" end out to fit over the tip of the header (cost 5 dollars) bore out the exhaust flanges to 3/8." I had to take a dremel and oblong the holes a little as well. mount up the header, put the smaller end into your slipon and attach the coupler/slipon unit to the header. the mounting point of the slipon to the rearset is about 3-4" off. cut the tip off the header until you get to the point of where you can mount the slipon. don't overcut here, so if you need to cut more than once thats fine... once youre all done with getting it to fit correctly, go back to the exhaust shop and have them weld it together for you (or a friend), this cost was around 20 dollars. so with the cost of the header my total cost was 80 dollars to do this vs 1000 plus for a legit full system. Even if there is a 3 hp increase it will be worth the money. Based on what other people have posted after they do this I expect at least a 3-5hp increase when all said and done. ill post up pics when i get my phone synced tonight. sound db has increased a lot, and the tone sounds really good, not raspy or annoying at all. i have the stock slipon connected right now and the idle is the same but any throttle input and you can tell there is something different behind the fairings...
  16. 35motorsports. you really should ask these exact questions (minus the who should do this) to him and he will give you the best response. rub35@aol.com

    fuck me, i never put two and two together. whats your main bike now? Let me know if you wanna ride sometime.
  18. Man dont ditch that bike. Does she not understand engineering or is she extremely obese? She won't snap that rear end. To show her this, you can get on the back yourself. Do you have a rearstand? Climb on top and stand on the pass seat (stunta style for realz) and bounce it around in front of her, not gonna go anywhere. solves problem numero 2. problemo number uno is a trust issue, tell her to stop watching youtube vids.
