    Dyno Tune worth it?

    Sometimes you can get lucky with a map off the internet, but you have to keep in mind that if the person that made that map lives in California, Europe, other parts of the world etc, its probably not going to work for you as good as it does for them without some adjustments. Different parts of...

    Dyno Tune worth it?

    100% with that specific exhaust on that specific bike, Ive had about 3 people come to me in the past with the exact same exhaust on the same bike complaining of a loss of low end power and a big flat spot on acceleration from a stop or low rpm....Some had a generic map installed from the...

    CAD to USD cash

    I am with TD and when I need US cash last, the teller told me Id get a better rate if I opened a US funds account. So she opened one for me, did the exchange at the better rate, and told me to close the account after so I didn't have to pay any monthly fees for the account ....Nice! I am sure...

    Used tire disposal

    Not sure if it has changed but a few years ago when I used to dump old tires, I used to bring them to the Peel community recycling center. It was free to dump a few tires a day, if you had more there was a small charge for each tire over the daily limit. The people were cool though since...

    Shipping motorcycle parts out of country for repair/modification

    On the way to the US it does not really matter, but on the way back to you UPS will be the worst, Canada post (USPS shipped from US will turn over to Canadapost) will be the best in terms of cost to you receiving the package back in Canada UPS will jack you up on import fees, their brokerage...

    Shipping motorcycle parts out of country for repair/modification

    If your not into gambling Id insure them for full replacement value, either new or used pricing depending on what you would be satisfied with if they loose or damage your package when its going in either direction. I can say I have probably shipped and or had shipped to me likely 1000+ boxs of...

    Need 03 04 ninja 636 stator cover asap!

    Sorry but that is fake news, the 03/04 and 05/06 share the same timing cover gasket on the right hand side of the bike, and the covers are almost identical with different part numbers. However the stator cover on the left side of the bike, have both a different gasket and cover.... 03/04 636...

    How much would you charge for the work to my bike?

    depends on the manufacturer, but since he had clutch problems I would assume they mean the clutch basket, likely grooved and hanging up on the clutch plates. However the price of OEM clutch basket for a 300 is around $400-500 from a Kawasaki dealer alone...Makes the $700 total price questionable...

    How much would you charge for the work to my bike?

    Depends on what brand parts he used to replace your clutch and flywheel? OEM Kawasaki clutch plates cost $200 and OEM Kawasaki flywheel for my bike is around $350.....So going by those OEM replacement parts prices, you would have not payed very much for labor...On the flip side if they used...

    Sudden fear of death

    Since I was hit by another motorcycle a few years ago and it almost killed me, yes I got a strong feeling about just how fast you can loose your life....It may have slowed me down a bit and make me think twice about doing some things before I do them, but I do not let it hold me back from doing...

    Lighter clutch pull on a WR?

    I dont like the feel of a hydraulic clutch, so I prefer to use "EZ-pull" levers. There are many options now for EZ-pull clutch levers, from $50-200 I run one on my KX450F and its a easy 1 finger clutch pull all day long Currently my favorite brand is Impaktech lots of options for colors and...

    Stator Cover Replacement

    Like I said to each their own on the oil brand, cost, where you buy it, but the question he had was "Need to replace the stator cover but not sure how much of oil the 08 CBR holds." "Do i have to drain the oil prior to taking the cover off? Or can i lean the bike to the right side and not...

    Stator Cover Replacement

    The syn oil I run isn't $20 that's for damn sure, so I stick with the lean technique whenever I can If the cover has a hole through it I would change the oil just to eliminate the chance of any foreign objects that could have got in the engine staying in the engine, other then that nothing...

    Dynojet Quickshifter Shift Rods

    That depends on you and your access to good tools/tooling personally for me I have access to metal working machinery (mills, lathes, etc) so its very easy for me If you don't you can use a fine tooth metal bladed hack saw and a file etc to try and make a nice clean straight cut. At the least...

For your bike they list shift rod A and shift rod D If you only bought rod A its short because your missing...
