    Possible stator woes!!!!!!!

    Since people with the stock stator are describing similar readings/problems I would think checking out/replacing the R/R would be a logical place to start. Though I in NO WAY profess to really have any electrical knowledge, just a gut feeling...and a little knowledge of the "half split method"...

    Front Tire Pressure?

    Get a bike jack that raises both tires off the ground and spend snowy days making vroom vroom sounds in your garage with the engine running and the bike in gear... puts the miles on fast and hardly any tire wear (just don't forget the ventilation) :P Edit: that, or measure in kilometers and...

    If I was as much of a dumb *** as the person who left because "they're going to beat our *****" I sure wouldn't put it onto the internet for the whole world to see what a pansy I was... And yeah it sure looks like Deals Gap

    EOM Sunday dinner, your input needed!

    upscale buffet for me "if it smells like fish don't eat it" so I would vote for chicken instead (or as said before if it once walked an bled it would be okay)

    VStrom Handguard Install Problem

    I had the same issue with mine and I just filled the space with washers... I haven't installed the "updated" guards, I have the old ones and they only anchor at the inside of the grips, but they were designed to be that way, cutting off the new guards might give different results... Mine have...

    Thank you Worldbound. Any chance you could do an exacto-knife type alteration of the grip to make the space bigger (effectivly moving the grip more distal)?
