The sets i got were $307 delivered before rebate and that's for a 190-55 rear. I don't know if I'm supposed to post the price, but I will say he beat it.

Howabusa Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Thanks, but you have enough to do. All the hours you work. It was $184 out the door at IP for a rear T30 Evo GT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSerfozo Posted September 30, 2017 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 Cleaned and lubed my brake & clutch lever pivots. It's amazing how much better they feel. I'm disappointed with myself that I let them go so long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2talltim Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) Yesterday not today but.... Set out to make one of these to put all my tools in that I carry on the road and free up bag space. Quickly realized the tube with my tools in it would weigh almost 10lbs. Didn't think this style mount would support that much weight so I decide to do this instead. Its removeable and still fits in my side bag when needed. Still need to paint it black. Might still do the one under the bag for lighter-weight stuff. Edited October 4, 2017 by 2talltim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBBaron Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 Found out you can ride a bike with 5th gear only On the commute home, went to down shift for a light and realized I no longer had a shift lever. With no tools on the bike (stupid mistake) I was stuck in fifth gear. Made it home about 20 miles of suburban roads with much clutch slipping and only a couple stalls. The clutch cable required a small adjustment afterwards but otherwise it appears to be good. I will make sure to clean the threads and use thread locker when I install the new shifter.

PhilD'oh! Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 Changed my oil last night and discovered my Ohlins shock is leaking. That sucks since I'm leaving tonight for pretty much the whole month on the road. I guess I'll put my old stock shock back on this afternoon before I go. That's going to suck for the gap trip.

JustinNck1 Posted October 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 Rode to work this morning. Quickly realized how filthy the bike is. Gonna clean it tonight and get it ready for a 2 day trip to Skyline Drive this weekend with my Dad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

durk Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 Last week I discovered I trashed the transmission in my kfx450r. I pulled the motor on Sunday and started working my way to the transmission tonight. Getting close but need to locate a flywheel puller. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
