I have precisely these links sitting in a coffee can in my garage. No longer need them since I got the full suspension treatment at GPSuspensions a couple of years ago. Flip me a PM if you want to make an offer.

Check your battery leads first. All you have to do is take off a couple pieces of fairing. I had loose leads kill my '05 a couple times until I made the threads tighter using teflon tape. IIRC, both times had some cut outs / intermittent issues / gauge sweeps en route to total failure.

Not even remotely related.

One more bit of advice for this exact scenario. DO NOT FIXATE ON THE LANE-SPLITTING BIKE. Traffic is still "Live" and what worked for the bike ahead of you 2-3 seconds ago is very much subject to change. Watch the cages, watch general traffic flow, stay off the lead bike's 6 by a comfortable...

Anytime I get new tires, I tape a post-it note (I know they already have sticky stuff - they blow off if not taped on) on my steering stem nut that says NEW TIRE @ ###### miles. Nice reminder the next time I get on the bike if I haven't had a chance to scrub in yet.

Alan, Heal well, thoroughly, and quickly.

Just the rear. Not even to wear bars on the front, yet - although I imagine chasing you and brother Sean around the hills will dramatically shorten whatever life span that front has left in it.

Serpentinite. California's state rock. Loaded with asbestos.

joebiodiesel, Been enjoying your write-ups (way beyond my mech skills). Just curious, though, why cruise at 1700 RPM? Despite this bike's great low-end torque, once off the line, I tend to keep the revs at at least 3200 RPM so I can accelerate crisply w/o feeling like I'm lugging the engine...

Opened the window at 3:00 a.m. - A/C kicked on 15 minutes later. Yeesh.

Use this link - Couldn't find your pic amongst the others using the original link - But WELL worth looking.

Whoops. Angel

For the first 80K or so, my tire choices were: Azaros (replace every 4K miles ~8-10 sets), Storms (replace every 4K miles ~5 sets), one and only 1 set of PR2s at about 52K (Hated the lack of stick, don't know or care what mileage I got out of the slippery bastages - first time I've dumped a...

I hit the "+" button when trying to hit reply... mental lapse I was kinda proud of that mix of evil/good sentiments - maybe I should call Hallmark about a career change.

Happy b-day, Mike. (is creeping out of the primordial ooze really 'birth', though?)

Crap, Mark. Glad we got in a good day of riding last week. Heal quick. (personally, always figured I quit maturing at about 15)

After many many many Avons, I'm loving the Diablo Strada on the front. The tire threads you want to look for, though are from HaulinAshe - search Tires with his forum name. He goes through enough tires and tracks the wear on each set...

Oh yeah! Fun was definitely had.
