  1. I installed LSL frame sliders. They are solid aluminum and well made, but don't seem popular on this on this forum.
  2. Tires (Tyres...olde English) and brakes deserve no compromise, particularly wrt bikes, and several of the brands listed won't find their way on to anything that I ride or drive. They are not all created equal. Lord Avon...wasn't he a friend of Lord Lucas - Prince of Darkness?
  3. Thanks! Looks cool. Have been looking through all the posts for a while now for a replacement screen.
  4. Looks like the Puig. I just installed mine yesterday. I'll take pics soon and post em up!OK. Looks like it must have been spray painted?
  5. Careful when removing the plastic insert. This may cause the seat to 'sit' on the external trim causing it to crack. Such damage has been reported in a prior thread.
  6. You can pack everything in your garage with that set-up! When did it get so cold in San Jose?
  7. Bought a Bell Star Carbon for around $360 and love it!
  8. Looks like it does a great job of cutting off air flow to the helmet. Not a good idea here in NC in the summer.
  9. Dainese Laguna Seca Textile Jacket. http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-laguna-seca-textile-jacket. Dainese 4 Stroke EVO Gloves. http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-4-stroke-evo-gloves. Quality is not quite the same as my old Dainese leathers.
  10. Mine came set at 5.5 rings showing from the dealer and the lowest that the front end dives is 1.5 inches from full bottom with a 175 Lbs. rider. My rebound damping was set at 7 clicks from the full 'soft' setting and I have increased that to 10 to eliminate pogoing. I tend to sit as far forward as possible, much like a dirt bike, and can easily hit over 100 mph without any head shake. Haven't tried running with bags yet, but I'm sure that they induce instability. Not too many MotoGP bikes have a top box. Was riding a ZRX1200R, which would shake, rattle and roll at 120 mph regardless of set-up.
  11. The initial break-in should be complete by 600 miles. Since I live in the South, I am now running Castrol Power RS Racing 4T SAE 10W-50 full synthetic oil.
  12. I have a similar issue when downshifting rapidly through multiple gears. I am going to experiment with adjusting the shift lever position today. It seems to be set very low from the dealer.
