Not sure if i'm posting this in the right spot. Just wondering if anyone is making and selling cops kits?

That looks good. So you didn't mask it off or anything? how many coats?

I'm thinking about painting my motor this weekend since its giving rain. The only real bad part is the upper cylinders under the valve covers. They have basicly started turning white from the lack of paint. On a 97 would the upper cylinders be gloss black or flat? Any tips? The motor...

I had one of those. It was a blast to ride. Man I wish I still had it. But up here in Canada they were 750's.

So I pulled my carbs intent on re checking my float levels ( which i set last summer) Because Ive had a rich condition. I decided before splitting the rack again, I would unscrew the main jet "cap" and check out the jet size. Im not sure why i didnt check them last summer when i had them all...

Thanks! I just went out and checked, they are in the right position. i guess ill tear them off check what jets are in there and float levels etc..

Does anyone know the stock Canadian needle clip setting? I'm at sea level. I get a stumble cruising at 45000-5000 rpm. When I get on the throttle it goes away untill I start cruising again. I think it is running rich. I have stock modified exhaust.

Well I got my hands on a used set of stock pipes. The previous owner had drilled them, they sound ok. The bike seems to pull harder with them on, maybe rev faster? Besides the fact that it was hard as hell to get them on, I'm happy with them. I want to dyno it again to see if the difference is...

Thanks for the reply, I dont think it touched the floor. I even took one off when i change dthe tire to make sure

Hi Every body! Last week I put a new Shino on the front of my max. I did so because my old tire was scalloped badly. I also discovered my steering head bearings were quite loose. So I adjusted the bearings, installed the new tire and checked its ballance ( was right on no weight needed)...
