^ You got that right! Haha. Messing around with some light editing: Been having issues with my new brake pads constantly applying pressure to the rotor... Posted in the other section, but if anyone has suggestions for this other than riding around until they wear down, I'd be pumped to hear them.

I just picked up some brake pads for my front calliper on my GS550. When I installed them, there wasn't enough clearance to physically fit the calliper over the rotor. I had the master cylinder cap off the first try and then the bleeder screw loose on the second try. No luck. (calliper piston...

Re: Qucik Cafe Looks great!

Back to Flint, had to cruise around and check out some blight....

Thanks for the info!

First ride with the new bars (more pics to come):

Definitely appreciate the info. I have a little over 30K on the bike right now... So far I haven't had any issues with what you have mentioned, but you never know what could happen down the road. Thanks for the heads up man!

The gauge cluster definitely caught my attention as somewhat of an eyesore once I put these bars on. Not sure what I'll do about it though. I did however manage to get all of my cables routed correctly and adjusted the angle of the bars back towards the seat a tad. I'm ready for spring now haha.

It's been a while, but I've decided on drag bars.... more to come soon. Currently trying to figure out some new routing for the clutch and throttle cables.

Are these still up for grabs? interested in the drag bars if so.

I let the bike warm up today ( a bit warmer outside) for about 8-10 mins and it popped into 2nd much easier. Looks like it's supposed to be dry-ish all week so I'll be riding it to work every day. Hopefully giving the bike substantial warm up time is all this needs for the time being. (The...

I didn't see energy conservation on the bottle. It said "specifically for wet clutches". Which is what I wanted to see since I had read wet clutches need a certain type of oil... I will take your advice and do some research on how to install clutch springs. Any specific kind of Rotella T oil...

Thanks for the quick responses guys. My question is, why does this only happen when the bike isn't warmed up if it is the clutch springs/plates and only to 2nd gear? It was Valvoline 10w 40 non synthetic oil... That is what the manual calls for along with the stamping on the cap of the oil...

So I had been having trouble shifting from 1st to 2nd right after start up but it would slowly get better after the bike warmed up. Eventually, I could start it up, let it idle for 2 or 3 mins, get on and go no problem. Now I changed the oil two days ago and the problem (not being able to shift...

It's all good man! Good luck with the rest of your build too, looks good so far.

Nice man, what did you use to shape the foam down? Did you re-upholster that yourself?

according to http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=1090.0 my forks are indeed 35mm... pm me with your prices if you'd like. Thanks

Well I've since ridden this bike from Detroit to Warsaw Indiana 2 times now.... 880ish miles total for 2 round trips. Over 200 miles of city driving/ mini trips. Point is, it's time to start. If anyone has some old clubmans (or new) that they aren't using and wouldn't mind getting rid of...

LOL, well, I guess he doesn't have to accept all six. So the never ending friendship with a complete stranger doesn't HAVE to happen....But the offer still stands haha
