    How much can you drink?

    I rarely drink either, and never to access. The rare occasions that I do, I'm home with the wife following an equally rare date night. After 5 drinks, I start to feel a numbness on my lips, and have never noticed any mental effect up to that point. By that time I'm too bloated to drink any more...

    Knives - What are you using in the kitchen??

    I have a set of Crappy Tire knives, I think they're Master Chef or something similar. I've had them for about 5 years. I have 3 methods of sharpening them, depending on how much of a hurry I'm in at the time. I keep a jar next to the block and when a knife needs sharpening my wife put it in the...

    Rubber Nob? Help!

    Actually, that would have been a 40 minute ride one way, and the same price. I think the "dicking around" paid off.

    Rubber Nob? Help!

    Going by this, I did okay. The currency conversion is about a wash. BONUS: I didn't have to go to Hamilton and incur a traffic ticket. lol

    Rubber Nob? Help!

    I didn't. It was the weekend, my local Suzuki dealer is very small and doesn't have good hours. I just wanted this done and off my long list of things to do.

    Rubber Nob? Help!

    True, but the Suzuki dealer in my area is out of the way, and the hours fall under my working hours. I could have worked something out, by not for $15.

    Rubber Nob? Help!

    Part ordered! Thanks for the help. Shipping cost was 3x the part's price, but I couldn't find it on Canadian online stores.

    Rubber Nob? Help!

    No, it's definitely a rubber nob. There's a hole that it plugs into. I took it off last spring when I was swapping exhaust, but I must not have had it in tight.

    Rubber Nob? Help!

    Thanks, but unfortunately my OCD won't allow it. LOL I'll take your advice, though, until I can get the proper piece.

    Rubber Nob? Help!

    There should be a rubber nob on my exhaust that prevents the center stand from rattling against it. It's gone missing. I don't now what is called so I used the best resource I know of to identify it, Partzilla. Unfortunately, as you can see on the attached screenshot, they failed to list it...

    Tool Box Organization

    Engine Swap - Keep Original?

    Great info here, and things to investigate. Btw, that image is my bike exactly, at least when I bought it. The grey '03 GSX750F. I think, the most common Katana. I'll follow this advice for my '03, I think, but I'd still like to rebuild one, so I'll rebuild the '01 in the future. That was my...

    Engine Swap - Keep Original?

    That's how I got the '01. It was supposed to be a donner-bike, but plans changed when I decided to winter-ride. But it was $2000 two years ago. The only GSX750F's I see for $1000 are junk.

    Engine Swap - Keep Original?

    The first link didn't work. I had fixed it, and it works for me, but there may be a cache thing. Here's the second video link again. I appreciate your advise, but I don't expect you to sit through these videos. I just wondered if you are familiar with the channel and know if they are reliable...

    Engine Swap - Keep Original?

    What do you mean by "grey Katanas"? My '03 was factory grey, but I get the feeling your not talking about the bikes colour.

    Engine Swap - Keep Original?

    After watching a couple videos on the fork seals, this is the one I used: This is one I was looking at for the engine work, early research from a year ago that I haven't gotten back to yet:
