Tpoppa Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Anyone near Parma, have a front stand (the pin type) that you are willing to let me borrow for a week or 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Punk Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 I have one you can use but I only have two pins for it. I have one for a 03/04 ZX6R and one for a 05/06 CBR600RR. These pins might cross over to fit what you are using them for, just check pit bulls website. I know the ZX6R pin fits a ZX12R so if you are working on your Honda my other pin might work.

Tpoppa Posted July 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 U.P.It's for the Buell. The Buell uses the same pin as the ZX6R, per the Pit Bull site. I'll prolly need to have it on a stand for a couple weeks...so I wouldn't want to inconvenience you if you'll need it soon. Long story...but the previous owner cross threaded a spark plug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Punk Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 I won't need it for a while since I just replaced the tires last weekend. I have another front stand if I need one anyway. I'll check where it is when I get a chance, it's at home or in Grafton. When do you want it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need help let me know.[/quote']I am pretty disgusted by the whole situation. It was cross threaded and over the miles it worked loose and stripped the threads. Paul, if you have time that would be cool. I've never had to get inside the engine before. I have the service manual and it doesn't look too complicated. I guess that is one of the pros of the less complicated air-cooled motor.Once I get the head off, I'll decide if I'm going to replace the head or repair it with a Timesert. I've heard that the Timesert is better than new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted July 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 U.P.It doesn't look like I'm gonna need the front stand.I have it disassembled and have the motor rotated down for service. It wasn't that complicated of a job. I took it slow to make sure it was done correctly. So far so good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Punk Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 That's cool, I have it in my car and I am going to Solon sometime this afternoon so I could drop it off if you need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
