But right now it just leaks too much. Coming from under the cam cover, there's little rubber pucks that go over where the head studs and nuts are. Those go to the atmosphere, so if they're worn out, oil will leak out of the cam cover. I KNOW mine are worn out, but I can't find the replacements I had, and I'll need another cam cover gasket -.- The bottom end leaks a lot, probably from the oil passage cap and plugs. I have the gaskets for them sitting on my desk, but it's going to be difficult to replace them -.-

Ohhh. That makes sooo much more sense now lol.
In hindsight, maybe I should've read your motorcycle description.

I might go to that PC intro just for shits n giggles. Probably won't be doing it myself ever, but it's always fun to learn.

Yey! Moar company! x3
Yeah I feel the same way about it. But i'm also sure it's very possible that it's the class's ulterior motive to plug their company name to draw in business. But hey, it's not like I have anything else to do (at that time) that day.

Hey guys, Mountain Dew said I should stick my head in over at this thread. I'll be moving to HI in early August (PCS'ing to Schofield Barracks), and will definitely be in need of a new group to ride with. On solo ride days I'll probably be on the Ninjette, but if my wife comes along, she'll definitely insist we bring the C-14 instead. I'll stick my head in here from time to time between now and when we get on island to see what's going on. Are there any good twisties around, or is it one of those "don't say where the good roads are on the internet so the squids don't show up there and ruin it..." situations?

Sup welcome, I'm over at Kbay. there is suppose to be a track day sometime in aug so hopefully you make it in time there are a few nice twisties but from what I've seen not too many, the roads on island aren't the most well kept. And there isn't a track on island. Lane splitting is also illegal suck if you coming from california where its legal like me lol.

Nice. we have a few nice place for twisties. The twisties are no secret here because everyone pretty much knows them. Snake Road, Tantalus, 13 Turns, and Norfold(sp?), Mariners Ridge(never been there so idk. i heard there is nice long sweepers tho)

Tho, the bike I'm using has 10,8XX miles on it and it is definitely NOT planning to be sold for $3,900. I guess, but then again...it is the previous year model. But I wonder if it really makes that big of difference?

I was coming up to a stop that recently turned green. My lane was clear, so I was going 25ish. The lane to my right was just taking off and this guy in the back decides to change into my lane RIGHT then. I swerved into my left. Fishtailed pretty bad before getting back into control. @__@

Needless to say...
*arrive to work, hop off, kiss the ground* xD

Now to look for some gear... >_> ... XD

I saw someone make a left turn while I was stopped at a red light.

They were wearing:
Beats by Dre
Ed Hardy t-shirt
Cargo shorts
Slippers

He had one hand on the throttle, the other was holding his phone/ipod. WHILE he was making the turn.
