Kobie, it's not definite yet. If I'm still here and not Okinawa, you can bet I'm going. "Ride it till it seizes" Ski |

Warranty until August Kobe. I am going to ride it a few more days and see if the "banging" gets worse. When its cold its not there but once it warms up, she's a banging around. I just know if I take it in right now, I will get "That's how they all sound". But I know my bike, I know all the sounds it makes and what to expect, this is a new one. Using the screwdriver stethescope its coming from the bottom end, either camchest or crank itself. "Ride her til she BANGS!" |

Mikel - I got the package. Thanks. I'll get back to you as soon as I get it installed and the TPS reset. I'll let you know how it goes, and then I'll contact the other party to work all the details out. Just to let you all know... I also got a nine ECM in the mail today and I'll be having that set for my bike as well... For the most part I'm going for the lower fuel curve so I can tune my Force pipe properly. It's still fat from 2K-3K and I can't take fuel out with the TFI. |

Has anyone here tried a syphon pump or a vacuum pump to do oil changes with? My thought is pulling the oil out, then draining the remainder (there always seems to be a little that the hose can't get to). There shouldn't be much. A very clean way to do a change. I would like some input. I used to use one to do changes on my boat. I worked quite well. Unfortunatly I gave the pump away when I sold the boat. |

I was thinking of switching to the "Sure Drain" system from Fram since it looks like I will be doing oilchanges once a month or so with my commute for work. |

Nah...home with the wife and kiddos in Tucson. I'm planning on riding up for my work week though. We all need to get together sometime during the week. The weather may be iffy on Monday (figures, the magnet WILL bring rain!) but the rest of the week is supposed to be great! You noticed the nice black clouds above my new place, eh Carey? Thought it was fitting too! WM |

So is anyone up for a ride tomorrow morning, weather permitting??? I talked to Kobie and he's down, we talked about going up South Mountain cause it's all new asphalt and its close if it starts raining. Congrats on the new place in PHX Brian, can't wait to meet you and put a face to the guy they call the "Weather Magnet" |

How can you expect us to meet you somewhere if we don't know where it is? (or is it, you really don't want me there?) he hehe I'd like to go, just let me know where Bart |

Hey, I'll be in the Phoenix area July 9th thru the 18th visiting my family which is scattered around the Cave Creek, Anthem, Scottsdale, Fountain Hills, North Phoenix, Desert Ridge area. Anyone wanna let me borrow their bike!? Joking aside, I'd like to meet some of you if you have the chance. Dinner or lunch or something. I'm seriously considering moving there, but the trade I'm in doesn't pay squat as compared to the Chicago area. Getting sick of this crap weather. In the mean time, take a ride for us snow bound morons. |

James, good seeing you also, nice car dude, looking sweet!!! Hey guys, if your gonna be watching Nascar on Saturday, I got a dog that chases his tail that can bring you the same excitement, round and round he goes, LOL. I won't be riding on Saturday as I'll be trapped at home waiting for some furniture to be delivered. er, I mean watching the races, yea, that's it. BUT... I'd love to ride up to Los Hermanos on Sunday for lunch if anyone else wants to go your welcome to tag along... |

I won't be watching any nascar... I can't stand that stuff. Well, Bristol and the road courses are alright I suppose... I'm more of a road racing fan. I'll be watching the Daytona and the rest of the AMA. Then F1 next weekend . ALMS and Grand Am too . I love racing season. |

Drop, There's a chance that cleaning will help, but usually you're SOL. I've gone through two of em. It's on the right side rear case where the tranny is. It's got a single black wire running to it and a single fastener. Giver her a try. Worth a shot. In the end, I think you're out $50 to replace it...not bad. So, nobody's going out St. Patricks??? Wycked, Got your VM. Unfortunately, I'll be on shift that weekend, otherwise, you know I'd go. Had a blast last time! I WANT A TRACK DAY!} |
