The weekend update:
-(AJ is OK but) his bike gets totalled out by a guy riding a can-of-tuna with paper plates and no insurance. Now there is going to have to be an auction in his garage b/c everyone wants his bike and rims.

-Chip was sited riding a new 04 750 and also holds the drunk WWF backyard championship title against two 8 yr olds.

-CowBike Mike was MIA; however, he is definately the best welder the greater lafayette area/ Benton county not to mention he has sold so many bikes lately he could open up his own dealership (not a half bad idea).

-Younkin worked all weekend (boooooo) and is still brakeless.

-Was that Chet riding the R1?...lol.

-Everyone else rode around til it got too cold then drank burr until the wee hrs of the morning.

 

what does aj ride and what happened in the wreck

 

Didn't hear about that wreck or any of this......guess I left too early yesterday I'll be out this afternoon despite the cold, gotta do something

 

thinking about getting out myself, gotta practice those wheelies. any of you guys tackle the hill saturday? plenty of brand new bikes, could have been a dealership out there. if you drive by 104 n salisbury give a honk. if the f3 is in driveway i'll come out

 

heres what I was doing all weekend/week :D






dont point out that i've got bolts missing, i've got black anodized hardware coming this week, as well as black GSXR decals made, and maybe some more black detailing.
total work time? over fifty hours went into this, working my normal work day then putting in an additional 6-8 hours into the night, took seven days, from strip to assembly.

 

Thats looks good man. I had some work this weekend too. I took Mikes 1 down and 8 up sprockets and threw them on my 97 750. It rocks man. 905 cage comes in tomorrow, so its time to start laying her down. Anybody else that wants to come out tomorrow hit me up!

 

I might or might not be out tomorrow. Tuesday unfortunately I won't be out at all, gotta drive up to damn near Detroit for a job interview. If it works out though, completely worth it. Who's AudioPhan? Not too many peeps running around with F3's, can't place you. Oh well, see this bike stop by.........laterz

 

found the board looking for something else, so i doubt i've met any members of the forum. i'm sure you'll see me riding through campus eventually.

any recommendations for roads to try? already checked out 250 past the mall, couple of nice 30mph's

 

WOW, that 905 cage was a terrible fit. I had to heat it up with a torch and bend it to fit...What a pain in the ***. Whatever its on now and i learned how to do doghnuts already! I htink im gonna need a new rear tire soon! If anyone is gonna be out tomorrow i wanna do some stuntin.

 

That isn't anything. I'll probably be out this weekend, I'll pm you my cell later and I'll show you some real roads

 

Dale and i found one south of campus one time that i had never been down, its somewhere off lily road but i'd have to ride it to find it again, pretty twisty, except the curves aren't marked, and where they are its wrong.
Wea road and concorde out towards Chips is pretty damn nice too

btw, good to see AJ is allright, i didnt know anything about it. thats what happens when you live in BFE

 

i need brakesssssssssssssssssssssss

 

what size rear? if it's for burnouts i might be able to help you out with a couple of 180/55 17

 

give me a holler too i should have this weekend off as well and i have a little of the right side of the rear that hasnt been scrubbed yet, the left side wall is broke in however.

 

ive got 190's on there right now but if you got some 180's that would be cool too. Just let me know what you want for them...Yep there for burnouts
:YEAH

 

OHHHH. I almost forgot. Im finally legal to ride the damn bike now. Its got some purdy new plates and even insurance... :YEAH

 

stuntzamania i sent you a Pm with more info on the tires and my cell # just in case you didn't know who I am, just ask for Shawn.

 

same here, think i'm riding with the stockers at 12k and they show. are you buying them online/in town or elsewhere?

 

hate to burst your bubble but that's not the last of the problems you'll have with a 905 cage. your oil return line on the left side of the bike, watch that line because the bar of 905 cage hits the banjo and usually breaks it on a lot of bikes spilling out all over your ****.

and ya, for tires, i always run 180/55, they work so much better than 190's becuase they don't flex like the 190's do. try a 180 and you'll love it.

 

i don't know if you guys have advance auto up there, but they carry EBC brakes. to go ebc's website and get the ebc part number for your bike and they should have them for 5$ a set cheaper than at the dealership for your bike. that's where we get ours. like 20-22$ a set.

oh ya, try the ebc kelvar brakes for the rear, they are soo smooth. i just switched to them and i love them. also, i use stock honda pads up front cause i can't find anything else that i like, but they are 41$ a set for stock pads.
