OP here. I sold this a while ago - march of 2015 i think. Went to a guy in Newmarket who then flipped it for a 1500$ profit in a few months, then i ran into it on the streets of TO and the guy that bought it from the dude in Newmarket said that the Newmarket guy basically replaced me in the...

with regards to that GSXR with the mint motor :cool:, something is off about those fairings too, the graphics in particular. like they are not OEM, or they have been modified. couldve been dropped, since the side and tail fairings are all white when they should have blue too...

are you running the stock fuse box, or have the fuses been upgraded to blade-style? Some times when that conversion is made you will find that wires shake and short out. That is what happened to mine too (i have a 78 CB550 - my build thread is on here in the project tutorials section). Also, TK4...

coworker of mine as well. its a quiet day here at work for sure. condolences to the family.

UPDATE: The bike is up for sale. DM me if interested or if you want to see the bike. It can also be found at L&L (thursday nights) and probably some Moto Socials as well, though please msg me first so I know to bring this one instead of the SV.

not to revive an old thread, but just thought that this might be a good place to put the info. I am insured with the personal for the house, car, my SV1K and my wifes GS450. up until this week, the personal has maintained (3x to me in previous instances) that they NEVER as per copmany policy...

thanks guys! it was a fun resto. hopefully i can do one project a year, and i'd love to do another one. the other thing i want to do is make a SuMo out of a CBR250R. I figure that if i can get my hands on a wrecked one (since i wont need the plastics or tank or anything) i could strip it right...

My ****** FCAW box (its not even mine....) does not make the best looking welds, so to have something look nice requires a flap disc to smooth out the welds and usually bondo and paint to blend them in. So, since these bars will be painted satin black like the rest of the bike parts, bondo and...

I wanted to add a bit of crash protection to the bike, but I didnt want to add anything too big to visually affect the profile of the bike and engine. I tried to find some of those 3 bar crash bars that just fit around the stator and points covers, but I couldn't find any in the local salvage...

I rock a Replay XD 1080 Mini, and I've been riding for 5 years now. Never once had an issue from the po-po for it. I ride in the city, and I don't squid, so thats probably the main reason why I haven't been pulled over. I agree with conundrum though, I think this would be firmly an 'extra...

http://www1.toronto.ca/wps/portal/contentonly?vgnextoid=8632fc2beecb1410VgnVCM10000071d60f89RCRD When i got a ticket that was very clearly incorrect, I was able to open a dispute and get the ticket cancelled (I know this situation doesn't exactly line up with their cancellation policy, but I...

Ive got all my stuff with them. Very good rates, consistently a few hundred less than others. I havent had a claim yet, so I can't vouch for their claims process.

yeah i didnt understand that either but i just let it slide. maybe to mop up excess clutch spillage ;) *groan*

fyi, try learning curves next time (if you're gonna go thru the course again). My wife did RTI, i did my M1X with learning curves. Can't say enough about them, they were great. and they do free retesting (or maybe it was $50, i cant remember). I went with them for my M2X as well. personally...

true, but it would make another path (with less resistance) more or less attractive. and if the plug wires are older, all bets are off on how well they insulate in a non-standard situation.

That might be the next thing to sort out. I would recommend that you go in and replace them, and while youre at it, take a look at the plug cap to see if there is an extra resistor in there or something. Often people just run down to CT and get whatever looks like it will fit, and there could...

@greyghost: good point. did we confirm that the plug leads and plugs are new? if they are really old it might be a case of arcing along the case or through the boot of the plug. Bluecorvin, are the plug leads new? or still the stock ones? Do they look okay? they might be cracked and allowing...

i agree SMC. that bike must have spent a lot of time in front of starbucks to only have 7670 miles on it. that odo definitely doesnt say 76703 miles. that may actually be worth it for 8K

ive been using the P-Auto one. definitely a good purchase. do it
