Great idea! I always loathed lubing my cables! I ordered a set and I am hoping that this makes it more enjoyable! I know my throttle and clutch always feel better after they are lubed!

Just send your ECU to Ivan. It takes you under an hour to get the ECU out, mail it off. Let Ivan know and he will do turn around in a day and have it back to you. It is a lot less hassle then playing the "I hope I am not buying a jacked up ECU" game. Ivan's customer service is top notch. You...

Thanks for letting me know what map you are using and how it is working. I need to put an map on my bike and I didn't know which one to use. I appreciate it. Custom maps are great; however, I would rather pay for the Ivan ECU flash and use his map for that kind of money.

Dibs on the dogs! JK, nice pair of dogs there!

Interesting choice, lower fairings and set up for touring! I hope you enjoy putting many miles on her!

Yes, but you have government health care... lol Sorry, I couldn't or wouldn't stop myself!

You are absolutely right as it being up to the officer. I was on I5 in between Stockton and Sacramento on my new Hayabusa... no one was on the road, it was straight, I wanted to see how quickly it gained speed. Well, hello there CHP, I was down shifting like a champ and the ticket he wrote me...

I can tell the speed difference, and my opinion is still mine. You have no idea of what level of a rider the person that passed you is. It is just your perception. Other people on the roadway might have had the same perception of you and your speed. Are they right? Are you right...

He was moving fairly fast, I don't think he was being a "squid" as he wasn't doing anything overly risky. By your own admission you were speeding, so was the other rider, how is your level of wrong less than his? The carpool lane looked fairly safe for going fast (You were barely passing...

I was just happy that the first attempt to get my speed didn't work and I down shifted twice to get down to 111 mph! Otherwise it would have been much worse! The 2 pts on my license for 7 years sucked pretty badly! It just came off my record!

I had an 08 Blue Busa, I loved that damn bike but it was EVIL!!! So smooth and so fast! I had to sell it to save myself from it... The $714 performance award (100+ mph ticket) helped the decision making process!

You should just sell me your FZ and buy the FJR.... then I would have an excuse to go back to RI for a visit!

That's too bad, I should have made you an offer. I hope you have a great time in Germany! I miss it there!

Did you finally sell this?

I would have went to the auction out here and tried to get it... :-(
