Re: Where the pipes go inside the petrol tank

Yes! You rock man. I was just looking for this information.

Since I need to paint my tank anyways, I was going to crack it open and modify it for more capacity. Now that I know what it looks like inside (tubes), I can proceed 8)

Re: This winter's rebuild and mods

Tony, how about moving the indicator lights to the new dash? I did something similar on my bike with super bright LED's and a new digital gauge. If you think about it, you really don't need to see which turn signal is on, just that a turn signal is on. Just hook the turn signals to one LED on the ne...

Re: oil cooler from china

Re: 6 Sigma Custom Carburetor Carb Stage 1-3 Jet Kit

The spring modification mentioned earlier, I believe (going off second hand info) you pull both slide springs and if one is shorter, you gently pull & stretch the other one so they're both the same length. However, doing this raises the spring rate (see below):      k = G*d^4/(8*D^3*Na) where G ...

Re: 6 Sigma Custom Carburetor Carb Stage 1-3 Jet Kit

Just wondering if any of you guys have actually had any first hand experience with the Sigma jet kit ? I've been looking over the interweb and there is quite a few people saying that the Sigma kit is just the same as Factory Pro & Dyno Jet kits. For the price off eBay, the Sigma jet kit seems li...

Re: Stunt monkey

He's not just a tool, he's a step up from that, he's a bloody toolbox! I couldn't understand what those people were saying to him. I'm pretty sure the first dude was telling him to shut it off, probably to save face. Haha, what a maroon (Yeah, a Bugs Bunny reference. I'm doin' 'em!) At the end, he n...

Re: Stick coils question

I'm currently running stick coils from a '08 CBR1000 and they work great and they fit great. Saying they fit below the top of the valve cover doesn't really tell ya how they look. So, to give you an idea of how tall they are, if the valve cover was off, these stick coils are about and inch above the...

Re: Just Can't Stop The Mods

Kenmoore, if you wanted more lights, or just to eliminate the fairing mounted turn signals, you could always go this route: http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/dd410/triphopin/20130728_045407_6.jpg Like mentioned above, the clear tailight with integrated turn signals isn't very bright at all.

Re: "Mototune" porting: anyone try it?

Love the super glue trick Be carefull not to glue your skin together before cleaning the wound. You don't want an infection. Also, the US military used superglue to close wounds during the Vietnam War, so it's nothing new. I've used the super glue method several times, but only if the duct tape was...
