  1. I have a set of airtech. They don’t have mounting hardware, so look on ebay for that(mounting hardware) as well.

    Tire Set-Up

    I’m a dunlop guy as well. I’ve been riding them for decades. Every time I’ve swapped for something else, because of pricing, i regret it, and end up buying dunlops anyway. Arguments with people about tire sizes usually end the conversation. I ride roadsmarts to ntecs, and just cant find anything that is more intuitive in a tire than the dunlops. (Wish I were sponsored for them 😁) i would also check your wheel bearings, and brakes. Sometimes you can have stiction from pads not releasing from the rotors(need pucks popped and cleaned), and sometimes you could have the wrong spacers on the wheels incorrectly, and/or, your spindle is too tight. Tires aren’t the only variable. When weather permits, dig in and check these things out.. good luck and report back. oh ya… some shops also put tires on backwards… just puttin it out there…
  3. I just wanna know whose idea it was for that yellow? I KEEP LOOKING AT IT!
  4. Get some daylight pictures. I love the fact you ‘got your senior pictures done with it!’ Brings a tear to my eyes! Those 3rd gen have a lot of fun qualities to appreciate. That rear wheel looks like it’s peeling (and i truly hope that’s all it is) good job getting her running.
  5. D220 on the cbr?! BLASPHEMY! Lol i ran those on my GIXXER1100 back in the day. Never on my cbrs 😁 i love old tire stories
  6. Thats funny! I just happened upon this while cruising youtube on my lunch time. Pretty good so far!
  7. With Plastic repair, please keep in mind the area in which you do the work. The smoke fumes aren't to be inhaled, and nobody else should be near you. 😁 as for the abs, don't use the solid core. Use the foam core stuff. It gets more pliable, and is easier to use. I've never used the acetone trick. I may try that. Good luck. From the sounds of it, YOU are ok. Nice job on bein a ninja😁
  8. I lol on longer rides. How long of a ride are you talking? grip opinions are like tire opinions. I'm a tried and true dunlop guy. Have been for over 20 years. these grips are what i put on all my bikes, and my kids bikes, they both ride cbrs. https://ebcbrakes.com/products/galindo-grips/
  9. Honestly the input and others experiences from this site helps ya look into places ya didn't think to look, or forgot about (these are vfrs after all) for some issues. Its rare ya gotta work on them, so ya forgot unless yer wrenchin on the daily. 🤣
  10. Uh wow... vertical scope bought custom fighters and there it sits... I mean, you better get a pretty penny for that purchase... sorry slamm. I get it. My bikes are all covered in 4 years of dust because of grandkids and work... glws
  11. What are ya dokng slim jim?! 🤣

  12. While doing this, are you going to create a bracket to hold that tool?
