MSerfozo Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Ordered the wheels I asked about in the Tech and Tips section. The silver color was out of stock and they said the next delivery date is ""ünfixed"" so I ordered black. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need 80+ bhp to do any real "Back Road Burning" yesterday was medium pace but hyper is balls out the best. That is of course if you want to ride/tame a big heavy 500lb.beast of a motorcycle that can kick your ass if not careful. Go for it Jay, You all ready have blue riding gear. and you just turned 30.I am sure you and the mrs. with luggage should pull 70mph in that 6th. gear on the WR. Get a chest protector because you will receive rocks and gravel as I slide by. OR, Jay could buy my GSA and kick all y'all's butts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie14 Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 New T30 Evos and suspension adjustment on the FZ1. Previous owner had 60 series tire on front. The old tires were Contimotions, and they were not good. Switched back to a 70 series up front and a 55 series in the back. There is a significant improvement in cornering. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxus Christ! Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Ordered a vagabond fender delete kit and a set of koso LED turn signals for the gsxs. Should all be here monday and I can get rid of the ugly hang-down. Will drastically improve the look of the bike. Also ordered some mirror extenders because a clear view of my elbows isn't helpful. Next check I'll order signals for the front, probably another set of the koso ones, dont think I'll do flush mounts. Shit, need to order an LED flasher unit.

For the money the vagabond kit is great. Its built very well and reuses the stock plate light. Yoshimura kit costs $120 and isnt built as sturdy. Hoping the koso blinkers are as high of quality as their gauges are. Better be for $70 a pair. I know, it's kinda ridiculous to pay that for a set of signals but why buy a brand new bike and put cheap shit on it? Also, got the new top clamp for the hondarocket. Just gotta dremel off the stock gauge mounts and smooth it out and it's off to powdercoat. Then all I need is to pull the trigger on a new headlight bucket and I can complete rebuild/replace the front of that bike and have an adjustable front end and a sweet custom look. Will definitely need a hand with that tho, if anyone is volunteering. Nothing too technical for me, just requires more hands than I have.

MSerfozo Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Email this morning says the wheels are backordered and expected delivery date is Aug 14! At least that's better than an "unfixed" date like the silver ones. I have a week to decide whether I want to cancel or wait it out... I suppose I would probably have been more surprised if they had them sitting on the shelf. The most recent of the two was last sold on a new bike in '07.

Gixxus Christ! Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Worked 6-11, then got on the gsxs for a few hours. She got dirty, so it was a quick stop at autozone and home for a wash and wax. Baby loves bath time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2talltim Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 After much debate and takeing some advise and placing one order then changing my mind and canceling it. I have decided on a set of LED headlights. Went with the ZED/CSP stacked chip design with the cut off shield. Also decided no fan and no external driver since there is plenty if clearance behind my bulb. Also wanted some with decent reviews and easily returnable if they don't work out. So these are what I decided. Auxbeam LED Headlight Bulbs NF-S1 Series LED Headlights with 2 Pcs of H4 9003 HB2 P43T PHILIPS CSP LED Headlight Conversion Kit 50W 8000lm 6500K Hi-Lo Beam - 1 Year Warranty https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074GZ3S4P/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_P999AbJQB8VZ3 This guy did a nice little work up on them. They are ones he refers to as the new style 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
