What are the sensors on the stock timing belt cover for?

Nevermind. I finally got them off and I see that it's the spark plugs.

Fuel detection sensors.  When they detect the right amount of fuel they light it on fire.  Then it goes boom and the back wheel spins.  If you want to clean up the looks of the bike a lot you can always remove them.  Bummer is only being able to ride downhill.   ;D

Pay no heed to Skybarney.  He's full of hot air.

Haha well at least I'm not alone in doing stupid things :) but honestly I don't feel bad because I've only had the bike a couple months and now that it's winter shew gonna be getting a whole Lotta love from me. Starting with the timing belts first then a 999 rear shock.

I am just as quick to poke fun at myself.  ;D  Good example,  It took me 10 minutes the other day to get my bike started.  Seems I knocked the handlebar switch (that I never use) to the off position.....
