Similar issue on my 08, adjust the lever so there is about a nickle thick space in slack of the lever. some driving with fresh oil and proper adjustment should correct the clutch, the glaze will resolve on its own. If you find the clutch needs to be replaced though, buy an OEM clutch kit with...
I'm not quite sure about that yet, I have to meet with the guy next week and we will draw them up and start cutting. Then we will have a handle on what we think the price point will be. And he used to sell lowering links... Not sure if they came with bearings or not. I remember when we made...
This is a stock setup here... as you can see by the arrows, if we put the R1 shock in which will sit a bit lower and then lengthen the link, the shock will hit as the triangle will rotate. So I made a link that was a litter thicker that I could cut out a recess for where the shock was hitting...
The R1 shock will raise the rear end about 1/2 inches from stock according to what I read. So what I did was modify the link in such a way to allow it to clear the lower shock bolt as well as the center stand. The link will be a bit longer than the stock one which will yield a 1 inch seat height...
So I've been made aware that the r1 adapter with shock will only work with the stock dog bone. I have just mounted the shock with satans adapter and it was a bit tall for me. So what I did was modify my existing 1" lowering link from cycleoneoff to make it fit and then use that as a template to...
So i've been searching around and haven't found any concrete answers...
When I grab the front brake, I hear a clunk come from the front front end. It only happens on initial pull. I read it could be due to the caliper pin or possible the floating joints on the rotor... I wanted to know if...
So my brakes are not as strong as I want them to be...
I put some new HH pads in which made a bit of a difference, but I still have some softness in the braking.
I see the threads about the R1 calipers and M/C but I am not going to put on an R1 front end so that's out of the question.
So...
I went with OEM because I didnt want to worry about what oil I could and couldn't use. Also after all of my looking around, it seemed like the OEM plates were the best when paired with stiffer springs. But of course my goal was a more aggressive clutch to suit all of my 2nd and 3rd gear clutch...
I just replaced my clutch this spring. I bought an OEM clutch and then bought EBC springs that are 10-15% stronger. The OEM clutches are available on Amazon for about $125 and the springs are about $10 anywhere. The lever pull is a bit tighter at first but it breaks in after a few hundred...
After full mods I was seeing as low as 26... I could also see the fuel spitting out of the tail pipe. Now after a flash and a good map, I see 32-34. Also, I do not ride easy or just go for a 'cruise'. My rides usually involve a lot of WOT and most of the time is spent on only the rear wheel.
Im going to try and make the final cuts and fitments on tuesday, I will see how it fits and then make a decision I may make a thread on it when i get it mounted and adjusted proper.
We have run the part through once, just need to make some adjustments and then ours will be ready for the bike... we've discussed a possible market, obviously I wouldn't want to step on anybody's toes, but at the same time, there is a crazy demand and no supply. And as far as price, I think we...
