Sorry, it was just the very first thing that popped in my head so its what I responded with. Sorry it offended, it wasn't intended to be offensive.

Welcome to the forums, theres alot of nice, imformative people here. Except Finger, he just quit smoking and is grumpy.

Sorry about that I shouldnt be so touchy> I did install the 13t today .I used an impact gun and had no problem>sorry again and thank you. Bike runs stronger.

Installed the 13t today. It was real easy and the chain was easy to adjust also Thank everybody for your input on this. The bike is alot stronger . No weak rolling starts in 3rd . Last night I ran the bike at 6000 rpm in 3rd 4th 5th and 6th . 3rd reached 35 mph ,4th was 42, 5th was 51 and 6th was 58.Today after the swap 3rd reached 32 mph at 6000 rpm ,4th was 39-40,5th was 45-46 and 6th got up to 54-55 any body else get similar results.Oh yea it got to those speeds alot quicker than last night .

im right here with you. i have a 250S that i just got. took it to the dealer in richmond to setup the suspension for me. He told me the front shocks had no adjustment (service dept manager and tech) and that the 4+ inches of play in the chain after they put on my new rear tire was how it should be....

the rest of us are just trying to learn how to do it right...since those that are supposed to "know" really dont have a clue....

Thats sad the dealer of all people!!!!!!!!!! And they expect us to trust them with our $250.00 plus 600 mile service. I have 285 miles on my 09. And Im dreading the day I have to decide if I want to risk my extended warranty or just go ahead and get the service at the place I bought the bike.
