Where to buy EBC brake pads

Someone is bitter, eh? With the way you maintained that poor GS, it will be no different for your safety, whether you'll be riding on a bike with a cracked frame or riding on a bike with bad brakes and whatever handful of other problems that it had, which led to the engine seizing.

People need to learn to let a dying horse die.

FOR THE RECORD: Nothing I did caused the engine to seize; it was just a string of bad luck.

Not any bike I've ever owned, including my current one. Glad to know yours is different ;)

Hey guys I found a bike I might buy. Owner says the frame has a huge crack in it, but that's no problem. It's not like it can just break in half, right?
I think I'm going to buy it and get a friend to forge a safety certificate and then drive it.
I will also be removing the brakes, and the cluster. Because who needs a dash and gauges right? It'll reduce the weight of the bike so I can go faster. I should also remove the suspension, because thy're just more weight and the bike will handle fine without it.

Anyone want to go on a group ride? I'll make sure to always stay within' 2 feet of your backtire, so we take up less space. I'll also be doing 11 o'clock power wheelie while speeding 200km/hr over the limit.
I forgot to mention it'd a turbo'd '99 hayabusa, I've been driving street for a year now I should be able to handle a 500HP 'busa, right guys?


Now.
No one asked for your opinion, and you don't know the circumstances of the engine seizing. Kindly stfu and keep your opinion to yourself, thanks.

And if you didn't notice: I was joking about the turbo'd 'busa.

and @jamie: AFAIK the oil light is a low pressure light.

A few minutes on google tells me that Yamaha R1/R6's (and maybe all Yamaha?) oil light mean low oil LEVEL.

And it also tells me Suzuki GS500F's (and maybe all Suzuki?) oil light means low oil PRESSURE.
I can reinforce this by saying my light comes on with the engine not running (no oil pressure) and the light would go off once its started (obtained oil pressure.)


@paul: Great to see the peanut gallery is still thriving. I guess it really is hard trying to devote what minuscule processing power your brain has towards anything else.

Sabex, it does look like people are kicking the dead horse, I have to admit. But there is always that BUT. Personally, even though I'll never agree with the way you treat your bike(s), I'd rather see fellow riders alive and healthy than injured or dead. Is it really that hard to understand that motorcycle is not a car? It only has 2 wheels, there is no cage around you. All the systems in the bike are more crucial for your well-being than in the car. If anything - brakes, chain, wheel bearing - fails while you'll be doing 120 on the highway, you'll be dead. If you don't want to take care of the bike, if you cannot afford it, whatever your reasons are, please don't ride until you get your mindset straight.

As I've tried to say MANY times in this thread; I understand exactly what I did and what could happen as a result of my action(s) and the fact that I choose to do it is/was a personal choice (and a learning experience), and I would never recommend anyone else ever do it.

Have you tried posting your bike parts on GSTwin forums?

Not yet. At the moment I'm doing pick up only. Once I get my G2 I'll be able to offer shipping, because then I could transport the parts/boxes to the warehouses to ship out.
