Good timing.... Grin

When financially possible; selling a moto or car just before warranty expires is advisable  & buying new accompanied by a new service agreement[thumbsup] Dolph

Just finished talking with Mike, the guy that bought my SF, the bike quit on him at 1:00am last night on H3.  He said it started acting like it was running on one cylinder then quit altogether and wouldn't restart...he checked the fuses and said they looked good, but one of the relays was clicking when he thumbed the starter button.  I reminded him he still has warranty on it until the 23rd, so he'll get it down to SSD and let them work it out.

Bike is at SSD, diagnosis is regulator/rectifier (last replaced by SSD in Feb last year)...should be covered by warranty...

I think California Cycleworks sells units that are a bit more reliable, just in case the new owner wanted to go that route.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

I have had 3 screws lodge in my last 3 rear tires.
Gotta be all the road construction going on!!?

Is it patchable...or is it new tire time?

Tire is not safely patchable, which is what I was thinkin'...screw went in at angle about one inch in from the edge of the tire tread... Cry

Ran down to Andy's this morning and picked up a new tire for $418, that's with $50 off because he's not doing the m&b...SSD had none in stock nor did Cycle City, who btw wanted $495 plus tax for the tire... Shocked

I did find the tire cheaper on Amazon, but then I wouldn't have it in time for the JJ Ride this Sunday...the sacrifices I make... Wink

I was also wondering if it could have been patched, ....... so much for that hope...  Roll Eyes

So who did the mount & balance?    CC?
