I have the non carbon Leo's with out the baffles and I hear no difference between cold and hot. What will cause a sound change though is really ripping on the throttle for extended periods of time. I notice this most when I take the fz to mountains and play around in second gear for like 20...
I first tried the kind you get at cyclegear, , but I could feel the chain start crunching usually within a tank of gas. I have since only used Maxima chain wax. Does very little slinging even if you spray-and-go without letting all the aerosoles flash off first. Cleans up nicely with their chain...
First off, what an amazing tire! I commute pretty much everyday, all year long, on my FZ. No matter the weather, hot or cold, (light)rain or sun, I'm taking the Fz to school or work.
The wet/rain capability of the pr4's is quite impressive. I've never once felt a slip or had moments of...
I use s2 ss galfers with no issues. Bought and used them before the conversion. No problems with r6 forks and the fender relocation kit I bought off a member here who makes the brackets.
I watched eBay almost everyday for a few weeks. Finally someone was parting out a whole 04 r6 that only had 6xxx miles on it. Managed to get the forks and the axle for $250 shipped. The forks Look mint and seals have been great so far. Before I installed them I serviced them with maxima 5wt. Put...
I have a Corbin seat all black. Bought it a few months back off a forum member, it's in good condition. I ended up liking the stock seat over the Corbin. I'll let it go for $250 shipped. Pics available if anyone is interested.
This is what I top out consistently at. I'm sure the speedometer is probably close to mph off.
WARNING!! Do not click if you don't want to see the speed limit being exceeded!

Bought my bike form a private seller in Georgia, the portion of the title for "No. of Cylinders" said "1". When I went to register it at a South Carolina DMV, I told the lady that I wasn't sure why it list as "one" cylinder, and that the bike was in fact a "4" cylinder. As I recall she didn't...
Was finally able to get the seat from the post office. With the holiday and then the ice storm it took a few days, but I received it yesterday and it looks great! Thanks again!

Oh tax refund, you couldn't come sooner!!
Good luck on the sale. It looks like there are frequently aftermarket seats for sale here so I'll hope for a good deal in a few weeks.
Ha interesting.
I put new rotors and pads on my FZ a few months ago and ever since the replacement I get a squeal at low speeds when applying the front brakes. No squealing with the old parts just replaced them because it was becoming that time(pads that is, rotors just because I wanted to). I...
Ha! He's on winter break from school until the new year. So she stays in the apartment meanwhile, and he took the cage back home for the holidays. :squid:
Lets assume the worst! Blah Here's how my best friend bought a DR200 with no title and now has full SC registration and SC title.
He bought the bike from a guy for $800 and dude promised that the replacement title would be coming in the mail in about two weeks(Sketchy sounding craigslist deal...
