Not intending on submerging my truck anytime soon. |
^^ lol Modded some new black universal fit seat covers into the s-dime. lil nicer than the 24 yr old fabric. |
oil change, spark plugs, found out my o2 sensor was about to fall off the piping |
Jumped onboard the AMSoil bandwagon and switched the bike from Motul to AMSoil 10w40 full synthetic. |
I modded my truck onto my buddy's trailer...inspection day tomorrow :D |

and i was serious about the honja parts thing, if you find any parts you like, hit me with a P# and i might be able to hook you up on it |
i really havent had any overwhelming urge to drag race it no. it would be interesting to try i guess. the thing is too, in 4 or 5 years of riding, ive never once launched my bike with any sort of exertion. i do tons of 1st gear roll ons and stuff, but never really launched from a stop. |
id imagine there is abit more to launching a bike then launching a car, but i bet its one hell of a rush! :D |
maybe ill give it a couple runs at ashcroft this year for kicks. i should be just under the revlimiter in 6th at the end of the 1/4 with my gearing based on stock RR trap speeds. |
when i first bought my r1 it needed a new clutch so i practiced launching a fair bit with it before i replaced it its a different world on 2 wheels. and unless you know the 1 wheel feeling it can be pretty gut wrenching. i am by no means a wheelie guy, i could never do them, only on the track in spokane over the crest and dip after you take the first left hander after the straight. i am just thankful my launches didnt turn into a drifting burn out fest... ive see high sides at low speeds with an attempted launch. anyways... why am i talking, i dont have a bike anymore :( ps: to stay on topic i got a ladder rack put on my van and winter tires. |
quick 2 cents on launching a sportbike... i didnt try too much on my R6.. but on the Honda i ran a bunch of times at the local 1/8th... u either had not enough traction. or the front end was up through 1st.... ended up having everythign to do with clutch controle.. and body positioning.. |

I guess it was more of a weekend thing, mod of the day for me, new summer ride. :D pics coming soon. |
rear wiper delete, 7 lbs maybe? and rear tint removal -10 gay points |
Wired in park brake warning light and high beam indicator light, changed turn signal indicators to regular green LED from hyper blue... |
Mod of a couple days ago, re-wired my HID's with a relay direct to battery power, they seem to light up more often in cold weather now, but still cause aggrivation when it's any more than -5. Oh and threw in a front strut tower bar that I scored for free. |
Bolted in my seats properly...cut off two of the mounts and had a buddy re-weld them in different spots, then bolted her down nice and snug with my freshly cut 2" washers that I cut from a sheet of 1/4" steel... Tomorrow I pull steering knuckles/hubs/axles from my parts truck and hopefully monday I put them into my truck and get it passed inspection |
Modded a newer truck into the driveway yesterday. 2005 Dodge quad cab, cummins, slt almost full load just missing leather, short box, spray in liner, fender flares, command start, etc... Day 2 of owing it, got exhaust put on it. Fel pro muff and 4" Researching the intake to buy. Leaning towards the expensive AFE stuff. |
