The Factory Pro Velocity stacks for the 10r. No big surprises here.

I did buy a set of pirelli SC2 200/60/17 rear, 120/70/17 fronts for the 6RR as well. I may use the BT003's for wet conditions (the profile will be good), or just put them on one of my street rides.

Chris is a good gent to do business with. Was really wanting to do a 10 tire deal until I looked at my remaining funds.

forks arrived for the 6RR




the stickers and end caps are the only really off stock look for these forks. Fresh seals, dust covers, ready to bolt up and setup.

F me to F'ing tears......

Put the new traxxion AK-Gas on the 6RR. The top O-ring started to puke oil with the bikes static weight. F-Me to Fng tears Left a message with traxxion of course, (hopefully in a professional manner)

Got a return call this morning...."Is it that inner adjuster seeping the oil?" Hmmm, yes sir it is the exact one...."It is an easy fix, just a simple o-ring if you have the special tools." hmm, so I have spent time and $'s on a product just to find out that I need to spend more time and money in order to fix this????? Can I say Butt Hurt here???? So I rolled Little Nicky off of the lift, put Jezabel on for this weekend. Clean up, waiting on the slicks, (they have not arrived yet and may have got F'd again). I may just cancell this weekend actually. Breathe in, Breathe out

Easy there. Don't stroke out on us.

That sucks.

Hell with the Stroke, I was fuming.

I did cancel today unfortunately. Had the forks off of Jezabel, doing the fork oil change stuff, the tires are still not in, and the clamp broke on the vise. hmm, not my weekend, so called in.

I did finish the 10 tire deal though. So another step closer.

I am in negotiations with traxxion on how to fix this leak dilemma.

It appears that the AKGas f-me's are solved. The fronts for Jezabel should be completed this week.
