Not a problem. Do you know where you guys get that Beolube? My dad wants some. Also, you don't have a 16mm x 1.5mm bolt about three inches long laying around in the shop do you? If not, I'll run over to Fastenal later an pick one up. |

Hola! Sounds like you boys had some fun wrestling with that. If you need bolts,nuts or anything with threads, metric or standard, hit up Industrial Hardware on Chinden. They have just about everything and been treating me right for years. They wont charge that much either. Industrial Hardware 115 E 48th St, Boise - (208) 375-5534 |

should have the wheels back from yamaha this evening...its going to be 1/2 hour to an hour labor which translates to around 70 bucks at most...to have the bearings pulled. $110 gets you new seals and bearings for both the front and rear...MINUS the hub bearing. i still have to do that shit but forgot it at home. it sucks living in two places! Anyways....maybe next week i will have the wheels at the powdercoat shop...lol Mike what evening do you have open to bump a couple tires off? |

Well after getting home last night i realized that there is no need at all to powdercoat the cush drive of the bike....its so small compared to most the ones i have seen and is covered up by the sprocket so i will just leave it black. |

Mike, what day works best for pealing the tires. I am off Friday at about 1pm or I could come by sat. morning if either of those work for you. |

I don't think it'll matter too much, but Sat. may be better. If it looks like tomorrow will work I'll give you a call before you're off work. Sound good? |

Okay so I have decided to save some cost and not do the candy blue wheels..(3 stage process) instead I am just going to do a single stage solid blue...most likely close to BSU blue or something like it. 1/3 the cost. Should be dropping them off tomorrow if all goes well. |

J, just let me know when you get them back. I got the bike up and running and all buttoned up. Now I need to wait for the bodywork. Also, Buell has announced Inside Pass dates for the past two years in Feb, and March, so they should be up in the next month or so. I've got me fingers crossed for Miller. |

If I had a peg, and it wasn't butt cold outside, I'd be riding it right now. J, your friend Brian, I think, talked to me last night and is going to come look at the bike on Friday. Thanks for passing the word. |

i think there was something like 6 of those bikes sold last summer...mine DOES NOT have the flames on it....the blue wheels and windscreen to come soon... |

This one didn't have the flames either. The blue will definately set you off from the others. Drove by snake river last weekend, they still have your bolt out front... |

yeah i see the old bolt all the time.....its too tempting to buy it back but then i'd just be pissing more money away.... |

Well, the FZ6 is gone baby gone, and in it's place is an 07 Yamaha ttr-50. It has training wheels for Carter to ride it, and I'll use it as a pit bike as well. Thanks Jeremy for the hook up with getting rid of it. |

No problem. Mike I have the stems for the wheels. Looks like we are going to have fun pressing them in...anyway give me a call and let me know if tonight works for you to mount the tires. I will probably just have cycle gear balance the wheels since we wont have the bearings of or the axles in the wheels. |
