The top couple miles of Hwy 9, on the Santa Cruz side have been chip-sealed (tar + gravel). It's not covered in loose gravel, thankfully, but...
I just very slowly parked the VFR on it's right side while turning to back into a space in the lot here at work. Just a quick run out for lunch...
The honda tent was *really* dissapointing. They took 1 and 3 in the MotoGP race, and had *nothing* alluding, or acknowledging that in the tent....
I thought about swinging through to meet up with you guys on the way out, but then realized I don't know what any of you actually look like, and...
I took over 400 photos, here are a couple that stood out in the first (necessarily quick) pass through them:...
That was a good day. No traffic at all driving in (arrived about 10:15 or so). Watched the 600cc bikes and the e-bikes from the corkscrew, which...
My wife and I will be there on Sunday. Probably arriving about 10am (if my drive+traffic estimate is right). I'm hoping to catch the Superbike...
One issue I've always had is that it's hard to get a good fit with most earplugs (too large of diameter, I think). I compress and roll them up,...
I thought that the emulators wouldn't help with rebound damping, just give the ability to run linear or digressive compression damping. The Lee...
Also, after a week at 38psi up front instead of 32psi, the handling has been much improved (although noticeably sharper). Does anyone know why...
Jamie, I'm glad that you chimed in here (since we're working on that rear shock). I've been thinking it's time to at least change the fluid in...
10dB louder roughly sounds twice as loud. At least that was Bell's original plan. It's 10x the power of the sound waves, but since hearing isn't...
Good to know. Then their numbers and mine should be apples to apples. I put all the discs back in for riding home. A much happier bike.
I'm curious what the test method was (they didn't seem to say anywhere). Hopefully it was via the SAE method. If so, I don't feel nearly so bad...
Are those the WSB numbers? 14000rpm redline sounds high for a stocker.
Rode to work today with only 4 baffles installed. Much quieter than before, but it bogs down, misses, and backfires at WOT in the mid rpms before...
If it's sealed, then it's going to be like moisture in a pipe that's been welded shut. Once the available oxygen and water have been used up in...
And that's where I'm torn. 5th gen now, or do a few upgrades on the '86, ride the 86 for the next year, and then figure out if I want to sell the...
That's a nice set of upgrades. But I can pick up a used 80K mile 5th gen VFR for the cost of doing those mods (based on prices I'm seeing on CL...
I've been thinking that the trapps are a bit... excessive. 8 discs per muffler, and while there's packing material in there, I'm pretty sure...
Separate names with a comma.
