Speed 3 Pilot

Life is tough, it's tougher if you're stupid...

Gettin' old ain't for wimps...

You only live once and I feel like I'm running out of time...

Speed 3 Pilot

Cleaned the S3R this afternoon and checked the suspension settings (something I should have done from the get go)...the fork preload, rebound and compression were all per the factory recommendations, the rear rebound and compression settings were off a bit...

That's all stuff that is supposed to be set for you and compression/rebound is to your liking. I mean there is a base setting and that could be off but it's still all up to you.
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 think he's on South King St. close to University Ave., across from the old Star Market, if that's the same place.

Andy's has a pretty good assortment and prices aren't bad.  Might be worth the time to drop in.

'07 S4RS and '04 998 Matrix.  Because sometimes I feel like a monster, and sometimes I don't.

I think Revzilla has free shipping to Hawaii for over $100 purchases, but don't know what their tire prices are like...

They took care of me pretty well down there.
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

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

Yep, they will ship a pair for +- $50

Called Andy's they are very competitive.....Using Sportbiketrackgear, I would save about
$70...but that would require much more running around on my part.  Using Andy's I can make an appt. then go straight to work after install.

No brainer!   : [roll] [thumbsup]
