Don't come to me for empathy! You expect us brits to empathise with you when you have allready been riding for two months in immaculate weather, whilst we get salty slippery freezing roads......not likely.

Who else is jealous?!

Dan

p.s. try the plug leads, and also the connector that goes into the rev-counter. Spray em all with plenty of WD40 and pray lol.

My guess is xaun means 30F, what with being from Illinois! Not sure I'd call that "immaculate" weather for biking!

My point exactly Splosh! Embee, you also may be correct. If in fact you have been riding in ****e weather like the rest of us, then you have much empathy from me.

Is it a curvy or a pointy?

No, I've never heard of one. I spent money on faulty, American-made soft bags, and had an exhaust built. Also, tyres, and payments.

Yeah, that's right. I think I cought a bad rep.
I heard from the doctor today! He confirmed my thoughts that it was a bad injector and he'll have to order parts. It's all covered by warranty, though!

Don't think so... Seemed like most people were pretty impressed with the ingenuity. Coincidentally, since then I saw a tractor with a car exhaust welded on- all we need now is a car with a bike exahsut and the circle's complete (no, Busa powered kit-cars don't count)
