I finally put on my R1 shock that I have had sitting around for months.

Installed a set of speed bleeders on the front and flushed / bled my front brakes. It is so simple with these things, I love them. Also finally cleaned the surface rust off of my chain after sitting all winter. All I need now is an oil change and I am good to go for the season! I am still...

You might also want to edit the title as well, you are selling a SpeedoDRD. Speedohealer is a different product by a different manufacturer, it is a little misleading.

wow :jaw drop: I don't even what to think about how much he has invested in that bike...

I never understood the idea of selling something you use and love just to put the money into savings. If / when the money is needed sell the bike. I understand that the bike will depreciate with time, but what is more enjoyable riding the bike or looking at the bank statement? I have toyed...

You don't want to go too small in the front as it will bind and is not good for the chain but 16 is very common so no problem there. You can go as big as you want in the rear as long as the chain is long enough. Also keep in mind that your speedo will be off quite a bit after changing sprocket...

Felt some vertical play in the swing arm so I tore her all apart to investigate. Turns out the play is in the shock linkage and appears to be normal . Oh well at least I have all freshly greased bearings in the swing arm and linkage now. I also finally got around to gutting the cat since I...

On Friday I finally adjusted my stock suspension (only took me 3 years...) and I cannot believe I didn't do this sooner, made a huge difference. Then took the bike for a nice 300 mile ride!

I plugged my AIS and still had a lot of popping, so when I changed my plugs I installed the block off plates, still had popping. I switched the PCV map I was running and that greatly reduced the popping. So you more than likely have an issue elsewhere, or your plug is leaking.

Not sure how they differ but I am running a PCV on my 06 with no eliminator, just unplugged the sensor. No lights, no problems.

I have had a Sargent, Corbin, and stock, I ended up settling on the Dirtroad. Way better then the others as well as cheaper.

I sure am jelous of your lift. I sat on the gravel parking area at my apartment for several hours while doing this.:tdown:

You are not going to get anymore room with the tank and air box off. The plugs and AIS are under the ecu and rubber flap thing, the frame also gets in the way. You will see what I mean when you get in there. But definitely spend the 10 bucks to get the right tool unless you have allllll day.

You need a 5mm allen for the AIS plates. There isn't much room in there and it takes A LONG time using a allen key making 1/2 turns at a time. I bought some thing like this:

Changed the plugs and installed the AIS plates yesterday, what a major PITA. Installed iridium plugs so at least I wont have to do it again for awhile (although now they should be easy without the AIS) Tip: If you plan on installing the block off plates go buy yourself the right bit driver...

I graduated with my BS in engineering in May of 2008, and let me tell you I spent most weekend nights doing homework until 1am while everyone else was out at the bars. Our workload left us either in class or doing endless hours of homework. Our only sanity came from drinking a bottle of...

Finished up my top case mount, and blew the dust off her with a short first ride of the year.

Yeah this will be my first plug change, I have an 06 with about 11k miles. 3k miles on an 09 seems like way overkill to me.

In my experience I plugged the air box and the popping continued, not as bad but still annoying. I am removing the AIS when I change my plugs in a week or too.

For what its worth I purchased the rear seat from him and received it about a week and a half after payment. So this guy isn't a scammer, probably just disorganized (which isn't a good excuse).
