Why that's easy! First you have to drain that pesky blinker fluid out, and disconnect the headlamp proton flux connector from the deferemental drive unit. Then pull the muffler bearings (new bikes call them "exhaust flow enhancers", or EFE's) and check to make sure they have not been overloaded. If they are scorched or pitted then the exhaust flow is likely putting too much strain on them, and you will need a Type-2 flow modulator, or a good set of aftermarket race EFE's.

Hooking up everything back together is simple, you just reverse the steps. Just make sure to get DOT-69 blinker fluid for maximum reliability.

:wink: :D

Use the Front break fuild resevoir. Remove the lid and fluid. works great for a shot glass. No need to use your front break anyway...

hahaha... very funny. but i bet the exup (or whatever suzuki calls their version of it) in your gsxr probably has a bearing or two. Maybe not a roller bearing but a bearing nonetheless.

by the way, did you get the cam chain thing taken care of under warranty?

They're going to pull the motor tomorrow and then contact Suzuki. I picked up an APE cam chain tensioner today to put on. I got my fingers crossed that I didn't bend any valves.
