    Torque wrench question

    got mine at harbor freight for 15 bucks!! :steve: worked awesome and remember the stock torque on those engine bolts you'll be replacing is 40ft/lbs. also make sure the allen head socket for it has an allen head that extends far enough off the body of the wrench because if you are mounting...

    We Take A Quick Spin On The '09 Yamaha FZ6R

    I totally agree....I see WAY too many guys out there buying far more bike than they are ready for...hell today I saw a guy riding a brand new gixxer 1000 wearing nothing more than a helmet and sweats....no gloves, no boots, nothing. The light went green and this old lady in a caddy beat him off...

    anyone installed integrated led tail light?

    looking into doing this also just remember the taillight itself is not DOT approved so depending on how cops are in your area you could find yourself getting ticketed or at the very least hassled a lot about your signals, but I think in conjunction with regular signals it looks cool....that's...

    Come take a ride with Vegasrider on the LV Strip

    Yea I split lanes up here when necessary but get caught and you will get seriously :spank: for it. Car drivers up here get all up in arms about it too because they know its illegal. Can't say I blame VegasRider though traffic is freakin insane on the strip especially at night

    so the cat eliminator pipe just bolts on its not welded or anything? sorry to sound like a newb I just haven't even looked at it real close yet. That does make sense about the sealing silicone though.

    Windscreen Advice

    +1 on that.... I have ridden harleys and other bikes with larger windscreens and one with what amounted to a full on windshield and any amount of direct wind exposure you're spared through the taller windscreen comes back to bite you in the form of air turbulence as you are increasing the...

    Did you drop it on the left or right?

    dropped mine 0mph coming into a stop sign....I have lost 60lbs recently but at the time had not bought new jeans, and the extra bag and sag caused them to catch my shifter as I went to put my left foot down, therefore my left foot never got to the ground but the bike was already leaning that...

    ASV Levers

    other thing is, especially if going with full-length levers, that ASV guarantees their's for 5 years against breakage, something that I am not sure if Pazzo does or not, but it is a nice feature considering how much they cost having the piece of mind that if you do go down and snap a clutch or...

    What to do with your helmet?

    true that! my Arai RX-7 with custom paint was damn near $1,000 so I ain't risking it. Plus at work (I work at a warehouse out in the sticks) a buddy of mine had a ferile cat piss in his with a 40 mile commute back to town.....not fun :(

    Around 900 RPMs

    sounds to me like your just hitting the powerband.....try accelerating through till 12,000-14,000 and see if the sound stays smooth. If it does, that's just the sound of hitting the powerband, if not and there is something specific at 9,000 that isn't happening anywhere else in the rpm cycle...
