I'm not paying the $480. Got the tools, manual and will, just not much time. The list of stuff to do is pretty extensive and whatever the labor time that's allowed for this would probably take me 3x's as long. I've handled oil changes, tbs (w/ friends help) & r&r spark plugs - just don't know...

After the dealer changed out my tires, drove 3 hours back home then discovered a bolt missing. The bolt was to hold the front ABS sensor and the mechanic said he neglected to tighten that one because it was new on the bike and he wasn't used to tightening it. Honest mistake and he did have all...

Now this is purty!!! (L-R owners: pickax, builderbob, git-r-dan)

Being on a track, would your insurance company pay for a spill/damages? If not, then that should weigh on your decision.

On my first trip to FL, was fighting the numb hand thing the whole way there. It was on a group ride (that trip) that the throttle rocker was mentioned. Found it at a small mc shop for about $15. At that time, the mileage on the bike was around 4k. I now have about 13k on it and have never...

The master at work. :clapping: :lol: Sorry, Dean (dcarver's post)

SA - Keep watching this section. There's a rumor about a BBQ. :assassin: git-r-dan :beach: dang, need to get off my butt and do a ride report. Lots of pics.

Since the left bag is a little harder to get to when parked, the rain suit, rain gloves, small towels and some tools are always stored there. Since the right one is easily accessed, I use that one for storing the helmet/gloves when parked. The trunk usually carries my inspection tools, hat for...

Will post some pics after this trip is over. After dinner tonight, heading back to the hotel, got diverted by an ambulance, patrol car and helicopter w/ spot light after they surrounding me telling me I couldn't turn where I wanted to. Just like in the movies. I was the center of attention...

Rad - Totally enjoyed it. You got it right. Pickey did goooood on the Q. Thought only us TX boys knew how to BBQ. Thanks Wade for riding down considering you had to ride back for work. Maybe next time we'll get a full ride in. Also, kudos to the feeger babes showing up. All in all, thanks...

You bet. Unless you mind riding w/ a building inspector. :D

Made it! 14 hours Thursday to Biloxi, MS and 10 hours to Lake Mary, FL yesterday w/ no performance awards. Roadglide/pickax, sure looking forward to the Sunday ride. Hopefully, some others will join. Here's the map of where to meet at 11AM. here

Great report. Spent some time down in S. FL last year around Miami, Ft. Lauderdale but really do want to take that trip to the Keys. Did you ever get to a stop and have the ones behind start honking the second the light turned green? It's a riot how impatient those folks are down there. I'm...

This is way too cool. Thanks a ton, everyone. I located the bolt at the local auto parts here in Rockport. They had it in stainless w/ a hex head the exact same length. I put in a call to the dealer in SA who did the work. Boy, was I geared up for that discussion. Closed on Mondays. Oh...

Got the one off the rear wheel and it fit perfectly. I'll go to CC Bolt & Screw tomorrow and match it. Duct tape was a consideration. CCTX - thanks for that offer. Thanks to all, I can sleep well tonight.

Just need to know if there's a bolt around this one that matches. There's not a like bolt on the right side. Also, not sure what this is for (the grimmy that I am), maybe something important, like brakes? And I was bragging about how good the customer service was. :blink: While washing...

Got my Storms through Toecutter's group buy (Toe-thanks again) and drove 3 hours this morning to Yamaha of San Antonio to have them installed. They installed my smart tire sensors and new 90 degree valve stems (Sport Bike Effects) at NO EXTRA CHARGE. Big props go out to Yamaha of SA. Those...

Dang, I'm gettin' ansey and can't wait to get going on this trip. Toecutter did a great thing on the Avon Storms group buy by getting my new meats here in record time. I'm leaving for a 3 hour trip to San Antonio Saturday morning for the SA Yamaha dealer to do the install. (Does that say...

Congratulations, toolman. You getting a little itch for an '08?
