I got to hear the story about the motel....this is why I stress to members that you have to show up to these meets and eats. There are somethings we just can't discuss on the forums

Problem removing lower fairing
Squidley replied to Yamaman's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
To be honest with you, sometimes it's just easier to remove the lowers to be able to have easy access to all the hardware. I have found that even though it seems like it's more work to take it all off, it's quicker in the long run. -
He's not the only one that that is thinking that way, I think many of us are getting ntired of Yamaha's responses

Jeff, I want to thank you again for all the effort in bringing the SS bike down to Gene's house. It was great to be able to be down here and ride with all of you, I really appreciate you thinking about me my friend

Something that I want to add here is that Bobbie was a REAL trooper with getting her Tattoo. I KNOW that it was painful for her, her facial expressions aren't for the camera. It really did hurt her and I feel bad that she had to go through that, she is the one that really deserves the kudos Thank you to all that donated for this cause and I would absolutely like to give my deepest thanks to Eric who donated his time for my Tat and Bill for Bobbie's Tat. These guys do awesome work and I have to say that if I do get another one, there is only 1 guy that I will let do it. BTW the tattoo parlor is called Oddessy on S. Marine in Jacksonville NC.

Haven't you figured out it's all about ME!

He's talking about the clutch basket Tate. Some of them will scream a bit and they replace them with the I basket. You'll know it if it has that and its still under warranty, so no worries

? about brake pads..........
Squidley replied to nkbjones's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I dont think that the stock pads are rated that way. I know you have heard us talk about the EBC HH pads, them being sintered. It might feel a bit funny at 1st as they will more than likely grab at different rates. I usually keep my old ones if they are in decent shape for spares as I have had some folks come over for maintenance and realise that their pads are almost completely gone. Thats when I tell them that I have a spare set to get them by....had to do that 2 times so far. -
Cool Beans!

After my wife's and my accident in Baton Rouge this January I was very hesitant on having my wife back on the bike. I know I couldn't have prevented the accident, but I felt as bad as I ever have knowing that she was hurt and I couldn't do anything to prevent it. I'm glad to hear that yours wasn't terrible.

Nate, This is just me talking here so take it for what it's worth. I would replace all of them and be done with it. You can keep the good spare set of pads for an emergency, but for the $100 to replace all the pads, it's just cheap insurance.... -
I have purchased a couple of the sets on eBay and they work great
-
With your mind I'm almost afraid to ask what you have up your sleeve
-
Steve does an excellent job on them, it's on my short list too
