Hey, I never said anything bad about Gixxahz in this thread. But if you really want me to, my base model Duc makes more TQ at 5K than his bike does at peak. You happy now? "Dance monkey, DANCE!!!!!":mope:Quote:

I'm still waitng for the garage guy to chime in
I never said the bike didn't move right along, well I never said it didn't and be serious about it. So what if it an '02 600cc? Mine is a '99 748cc. Name the time and the place as far as the sound comp goes. I don't have a problem with high pitch sound with my bike. When will you Jap guys learn that twins sound better.....well except for Harley's:spit:Quote:

Best,

One issue we had was the new all ballz tapered roller bearings are just a tad taller than the stockers. This means that the steering damper mount is holding on by 3 or 4 threads instead of 7 or 8. not a huge deal, but worth noting.
I just found out I can change to a heavier oil in the stock steering damper on my 08 gixxer. It's a rebuildable damper. I'll be saving $400 on buying a new one. Woohoo! Just empty out the 5 wt and replace with 15 wt. Noice!
that's a common thing done from what i've read on gixxer.comQuote:

Yep, electronically adjustable. It's like the honda HESD system. more speed, more damping.Quote:

Knees will be dragged and tracks will be ridden.
I will show you the way, Jedi.
Degs offered a few advanced courses for me, but my co-workers all bailed on multiple occasions. then i gave up & lost interest, but i do have a license.
Nice work Jim.
Feels great when you accomplish your mission, eh?
Degs is the best!
Honestly I have been avoiding riding at night ever since I snapped off one of the tabs on my clear shield, only have the tinted one now. Instead of buying a new shield I bought a new helmet, just waiting for it to come in.Quote:
