Is that rear sproket still stock?

The forks are getting a workout, looking at the pic of the stoppie.

Cool man,

the gold frame looks better than I though it wouuld, Love the two color rims,

pilot · Fri Feb 29th, 2008, 06:28 PM

Impressive. The last time I tried to do a stoppie on my ZZR1200 the headlight flew off (quickly followed by me).

What kind of pressure are you traditionally running in the tires?

derekm · Fri Feb 29th, 2008, 07:36 PM

33.36 ill go up to 36 in the front when its warmer.

pilot · Fri Feb 29th, 2008, 07:54 PM

OK. I was thinking that one might ride at a lower pressure to put more absorbent bounce and flex in the tire. Wrongoo on my part. Learn something new everyday. Thanks. Now go out on your Friday night and have a good time.

haha- Im only gonna ride here n there. p.s.-higher pressure=less initial traction=less rolling resistance=further distance

Kyle at Line-X of boulder charged me 160 for all 7 pieces.

He wrapped all the pieces but the tank 360 degrees so it'll never peel.

Super shiny in the sun. Looks like metal flake. And I can scrape my key across it and doesn't leave any sort of a mark. The stuff is bullet proof. Sets up in 4 minutes. Took me longer to put them back on, than it did for him to spray em.

I suck with a rattle can, and a good paint job is pricey... even for flat black, so this was a good option.

But derek's gold.... that's crazy looking. Can't wait to see it in person. My rims suck. His look sweet. The old kryptonic skater wheels =P

Wish I would have known about the adapter sooner.

I have a FTI adapter and a 54" line sitting in my garage.

Went with the Hohey / Brembo setup.

Or wait... is the Kawi the circle adapter? I can never remember.
