Hey, These Guys are the Best in Town!!!!! Seriously!!!! I broke what could not be broken!!! I was about to throw it into a lake and hope some watery tart would fix it.

It all started when I was on the R1 Forum and they said -- "That Graves Clutch install is easy!!!!" that's if you are Yamaha Certified Mechanic from Japan!!!!

So in my infinite wisdom - I thought I would take a crack at it. This is what I ended up with:


So I thought about it for a while(self reflecting) -- what was I doing wrong???


Soon as I opened the Clutch cover - I knew these people would be outside of my house:


I called Jim (TFOG) and gave him my life story (blah blah blah - clutch cover - clutch cable/arm - blah blah blah) :


Jim calmed me down and talked me out of doing this:


He was really cool about the horribly/stupid stuff I did to it and said "bring it on up!!!" I was shocked

He didn't laugh at me!!!


After a couple of days I got a called saying it was done!!!!



He told me the problem - and he gave me a great price!!! He didn't hold me at gun point like some of these Stealerships would do:


I am so happy:

My bike will look like this again:


Hopefully I will be able to do some "track days" this Summer:

even if I am forced to be an unmbrella girl

I am so happy - with the money I saved- I might want to go get a Tattoo or something:


Jim (TFOG) - YOU RAWK!!!!
