Check out www.ohioriders.net - they're a very active forum that has riders of all types and preferences - a heavy trackday influence and a good amount of sport/sport touring riders as well - they do a lot of big rides (maybe not what you're looking for) and smaller rides - should be able to find...

Just go with two H4s - you can just splice the high beam wire to run to both fittings if need be, an H7 (to oversimplify things) is just an H4 connection that is missing the high beam lead. You'll plug your H4 into their connection (if it's anything like the wiring harness I have for my Morimoto...

you could go with just about any direct bolt on horn. Or you could buy a Stebel Nautilus, and with 15 minutes of wiring have something loud enough to wake sleeping drivers.

Re: July 2014 M.B.O.M. - uploads enabled Careful there - you might wan to put on a chain guard! And what's the point of a license plate holder on that?

Re: July 2014 M.B.O.M. - uploads enabled I'll give you a bump - this month there's a belly pan and we finally have green foliage in Ohio!

I'm an east sider! Live in Cleveland Heights (on the border of East Cleveland) and work out in Solon. Want to meet up for a ride sometime down in Cuyahoga Valley NP? (I know some great roads) I don't feel bad about hijacking your selling thread - I'm just giving you free bumps.

I'm thinking you could have had a nail in your tire for a long time, wasn't actually the culprit of your recent flat. You see the nail and assume that it's the cause, when actually there is a different hole somewhere else and the nail was innocuously chilling in your tire. Fill the tire...

You're in Cleveland?!! Where?

Dumb question: Any chance you have a second hole in the tire?

I have one - shoot me a PM - left and right for $10 plus postage.

My clutch failed right at the perch on the handle - so had I looked at it I would have seen the frays there - other signs would simply be a catching feeling on the cables, or tightness when the bars were turned.

I would do a little bit of cable maintenance before you depart - lube up your throttle and clutch cables and check for any signs of wear - they tend to fail on me at the most inopportune times - fortunately my clutch cable failed 2 days before my 1500 mile trip two years ago, so I was able to...

I've got a hacky method I used on my 06 (no helmet lock). It's really easy and works well! All you need is a hacksaw, a small hose clamp and 5 minutes. Take off your seat. cut two small notches the width of your D-Ring into the sidepod (etiher clutch or throttle side) - attach the hoseclamp...

Ignition damaged during theft (ambiguously worded - could have been OP who damaged it). OP confused about model year. hmmmmm :rolleyes: I'm just messing man - I'm sure it's your bike (now) :thumbup:

It may be completely off topic, but since you guys have lamented the training/ATGATT comments, I'll go ahead anyway. It looks like our new URL has attracted a broader riderbase - OP rides an r6, new poster, hasn't transitioned from an FZ that I can tell - so it leaves me with the following...

Sounds like he used the old "asphalt skid resistance test". I'd say it's roughly as accurate as using the multimeter.

You make a great point - I knew you had a pretty good deal, it's just one of those things where I found out that I have access to a mill, I kinda wanted to do it myself. Wasn't quite set on anodizing, had thought of just getting them PC'd with a batch of other things at some point in the...

Hey oso2k - I'm going to be a cheapo and try my hand at milling these myself, do you have a detailed drawing? I went through the whole thread and must have overlooked it, cause I thought I had seen it a year ago when I was looking through. What's the thickness and grade of the aluminum...

You're a brave bear

Reading these temperature threads makes me very jealous of you '07+ owners. My best guide is whether my ankles are getting hot in low shoes(normal), high boots(hot) or full leathers(get the fire department).
