Split personality, I fake being smart
I've always found them pretty reliable, only time I ever had a problem with Yamaha pump the oil tank had a mixture of oil and water in it (probably for several years)
Always found pre-mix more trouble than it's worth on street bikes, plus, you need to re-jet for pre-mix

Hope you measured better than I did. Left myself JUST enough thread after I put in the all balls kit.bradj said:
Yesterday when I was replacing the oil injection lines on my bike, I noticed with a quick blip of the throttle that the cable would derail. Bad thing is that I couldnt tell by the throttle alone. The real deal is that this is an old cable and the return is slowed by this. Before I get on the road I'll lube the cable and triple checknthat this doesn't happen anymore. This happened maybe 1 out of 8 times.

I bought the set to put a 75 xs front end on a 73 rd. they don't sell anything for the r5 but I think the neck measurements are the same between the 72 r5 and 73 rd

I reject your reality, and substitute my own!
I'm kind of afraid the same thing will happen to me..... LolDrewski said:I love that you're up to 71 pages and still not riding it yet.

How many generations will it take to finish this beast? Bets anyone?
This bike reminds me of my first GT750 which I'm busy stealing parts off it again. In the meantime I have built one custom GT750, one totally stock and one more or less stock with upgrades. I keep changing my mind and chopping bits off and swapping parts out.
When it started it was supposed to be a tracker look but had street/race parts as well, so the tracker bits went onto the Phat Trakka and street parts went on another build. When I finish the next two I'll get back and modify it some more and maybe finish it - or maybe not..
That's the problem with too many parts and too many ideas. I feel your pain there Brad.
