  1. What year, before "10 there was a rubber that attaches to airbox in there to fill gap!
  2. I should add that those side case components are considered consumables on a bike thrown at the rocks! Replacements are inexpensive ant not worth a lot of work. If I want to dress up, I just save the old ones for spares.
  3. That will not effect drag, or feel I think! This is just to minimize clearances for consistency!
  4. Rattle can enamel generally works fine and is easier to retoutch but powdercoat is the most durable, yet hardest to retoutch.
  5. Thats a big ugly one!
  6. For real men wit big'uns!
  7. The Kiehin carb has an overflow tube that extends up into the fuel bowl which connects to the outlet at the left front bottom of the bowl. Josstling of fuel in the bowl may lead to a minor splash out the tube when riding. If floats or valve were stuck or leaking, you would get a steady stream so possibly just normal. If it runs fine other than an occasional spatter, I would not be concerned, however a good clean is always a good thing, if you do not screw it up in the process. They can be finiky!
  8. It is just to steam them off. The brakes on Billy's car hit water on occasion I would guess, time to trade it!
  9. The bog is normal from low revs on 125. It is a bit over carbed(same carb and jets as 2.5 and 2. 9 for that). It is a rev and go machine Put the stator plate mark back to the right edge of the top casting web and it will be fine.

    Redneck engineering!
  12. Biff, QE means destructive testing! (as compared to NDT) I want that job! "I DIY like crazy and don't really pay attention to people or warning signs telling me that "you can't" or "you shouldn't". I personally feel that puts unnecessary boundaries on ones self." I hear you man, we don't need no help screwing things up, bro!

    Yep, greatest thing since sliced bread! Friggin awesome! I wanna PRO man!
  15. So a $300 repair is not so bad! He may even have a heavy spring for you!
  16. I can break an anvil with my head!
  17. No, he is studying Logic! As in why does the common punter think he needs the lightest quickest most maintenance intensive out there to go throw at rocks!
  18. Shaft is likely bent where it enters the piece in top as pictured( which is the way mine is oriented on "12 bike). Not sure where you are located, but contact Splatshop UK, as I believe they can fix it up for about half the cost of a new, or just order yourself an Ohlins! It is , how you say, knackered!
