Don't worry, the cycling of the vboost servo is very distinct and noticeable. You will probably also hear another sound at the same time, your fuel pump filling the carb bowls. Welcome to the funhouse.

Kosrider, that set up looks awesome. Wish I would have seen those pics before getting the raptor. Oh well. Sent from my Droid that you are not looking for

I ended up getting some gait belt handles off ebay for $9. Then went to home depot and got a nice padded tool belt on sale for $12. Had a lady sew the handles in place where my daughter was most comfortable and now have a great set up. Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk

Hey all, was just wondering what size everyone's aftermarket exhaust sytems were. My Hindle 4-2-1 has 1.5" od pipes that end up as a 2" od pipe. How big are the Marks and Kerkers? What about stock? If it would make a big difference in performance, I would definitely consider getting a different...

I just put on one of the raptors. Super easy hookup and easy to mount. Just used heavy duty Velcro stuck to the side of the speedo.

Amaury, in a perfect world, kids would never go hungry. In the real world, unfortunately, this is a fact of life for some. Everyone realizes this, the problem is coming up with a solution. If you try what other "democratic" societies have done and set up some sort of compassionate socialism...

So did you remove the bracket that normally stabilizes the can? Is going with a compression joint going to be enough to keep the muffler from moving around and not coming loose?

Thanks.

KJ, what size is the pipe on the inlet? 2"? Also, I can't tell from the pics or vids, but how is it connected to the header system? Clamp or weld? Last, would it be possible to remove the IXIL name plate on the side?

I am a big fan of polished instead of chrome.....but, the scoops are a huge pain in the arse to get looking good. I had Sean chrome mine and am super happy with them.

Hey all, I don't know if anyone has had as much trouble as me trying to find riding gear for kids. Helmets and gloves are pretty easy, but decent jackets and boots and such are almost non existant. I found this store that is in England called babybiker.com. They have everything you could ever...

Sean is real good about loaning out his shim kit. It has everything you will need to do the job. Make sure to order new valve cover gaskets from him at the same time. And be prepared for a lot of frustration. I did mine after Christmas, first time, and it was not a lot of fun. Hit me up...

Congrats! You may be able to upgrade to mounting swords instead of spikes on some of those rides.:biglaugh:

Hey all, I am trying to get the bike dialed in as good as possible. When setting the a/f screws does anyone ever hook up the carb sync to watch each cylinder? Reason I ask is that I don't notice a whole lot of difference once I start untightening the set screw on the a/f. I can tell when it's...

Firefly, I do have the super bike bar already. The reason I was looking at the FJR master was that I want to go to the 6 pot calipers. My bike is an 04, so I am looking at the 94 FZR1000 or YZF750 brakes. My current front brake system has DOT5 silicon fluid in it thanks to the previous owner...

So, are the non abs 04 and 05 fjr mc pretty rare? I would think this would be a good option because at 15mm, they are right in between the stock mc and the 14mm 03's. Also, does anyone have a pic of these mounted up. Firefly said they sit at an awkward angle and I was wanting to see what it...

^^^This x1000^^^ I just turned 40 and have two girls, ages 9 and 6. We live in a pretty quiet college town and send the girls to a private Christian school. The values they are being taught both at school and home seem so different from the norm these days. They know actions have consequenses...

yeah, i've got ss lines from sean already, but i lowered the front 2" since i put them on. will probably just change them again. from everything i've been reading here and on the web, the only problem with the dot5 is that the silicone may break down some external rubber components. is this...

There are two reasons I'm looking at changing the masters. I like the idea of the adjustable lever and the po decided to run dot 5 in the front brakes. Since it was like this when I got it, I figured it would make it worse to try and go back to dot 3 or 4. So, I guess I could rebuild the...

Hey all, I have been reading as many threads as I can about upgrading the brakes. I have an 04, so the R1 doesn't really appeal to me. Also, I'm not fond of the blue or gold inserts on those. What I'm looking at is the 6 pots off an FZR or YZF bike. I know they're kinda hard to come by, but...
