Yeah they're awesome, bought my tires from them, and got it installed for free. They are my to go guys for tires, otherwise I believe installation is around $36 a tire, and 30min of your time.

Gorilla25 · April 14th, 2012, 05:07 PM

update: I called Montgomery motors, and they charge $20 somethin per tire if i bring in my tires and wheels. canceled apt for South Seas and made my apt for Montgomery on Tuesday morning

dkstariob · April 16th, 2012, 11:16 AM

Yep Montgomery Motors is awesome. They are a Suzuki dealership but they give great customer service to all bike riders. If I had to get work done at a dealership then it would be them.

kenji_808 · April 16th, 2012, 09:35 PM

What color? I might be interested in a ninja again.

ungluck · April 19th, 2012, 12:18 PM

same color it always has been. no color change, not putting that much effort into it.

imataiwanezz · April 19th, 2012, 09:54 PM

So anyone want to go on a ride this weekend? I just finally got my gloves after like a month lol.

Mountain Dew · April 20th, 2012, 10:10 AM

My stator is coming in today so I'll (most likely) have my bike running tomorrow. If you guys don't mind it being later (after 330) like last time I'll come.

Mountain Dew · April 21st, 2012, 01:22 AM

So I take it due to the lack of responses there won't be a ride tomorrow?

If there is someone text me or send me a PM (shows up in my email).

squaregamer476 · April 21st, 2012, 01:28 AM

Is it mandatory that I do my 7500 valve service at 7500? or can i ride a bit more?

Mountain Dew · April 21st, 2012, 01:40 AM

Just don't go a ridiculous amount over the 7500. 8000, even 8500 is fine IMO. Anything more than that is just pushing it. Are you going to do it yourself (you should)?

id like to but i trust the mechanics more. Im planning to go to mont gov motors.

Maybe the next valve job ill do it. Im slowly digging into the bike.

Mountain Dew · April 23rd, 2012, 01:56 AM

Bike up and running. Rode to work on Sat. Not many problems on the way to work. Cruising 6-8k RPM on h1/h2 was just fine. Once I got on Nimitz and dropped below 6k it felt like it wanted to die out, or at least hesitate. On the way back though, my velocity stacks sucked in some small debris and one of my float valves got stuck open and flooded a carb. Figured that out after I stalled in the middle lane and had to push it in the sidewalk (I was at the stop light right before the h1), and saw it pissing fuel. Couple if kicks to the carbs stopped it. I also suspect my plugs were one size too hot, so I got a fresh set of colder ones.

Still burning oil, but not as severe as it was before. Just comes out of the breather cover, instead of the exhaust as well. I suspect rings/cylinders, since I replace the valve guide seals. One day this thing'll be in great condition. Sadly that won't be til after I get my commuting bike and can completely tear the engine down and rebuild it.

Gorilla25 · April 23rd, 2012, 02:24 AM

damn...so, when is the commuter bike gonna be in your possession and what bike will it be?

Mountain Dew · April 23rd, 2012, 02:50 AM

I'll be getting a new (2012) bike in about a month. I'm still trying to decide what I want. At the moment I'm still trying to decide between a Hypermotard 796 or an 848 Corse. That's of course if I don't buy a newish used bike.

look at how faded the controls are. new tyres, must have some miles on it.

fender eliminator means good luck passing safety.

they are the third owner, so there has to be some stuff wrong with it

not all FE are illegal, theres will pass safety. got the stock signals just gotta add the reflective stickers

that exhaust must be ridiculosly loud

Kstorm21 · April 25th, 2012, 02:57 PM

Yeah, I saw that one. Thanks. It's just a weird angle to show a bike. I'm sure there's some side damage. With my surgery on the 12th, it's been hard to save some $. I sell stuff on CL to make some $. I still don't have enough....save save save.

Kstorm21 · April 25th, 2012, 10:48 PM

There have been plenty on CL that I would of bought. It's just a matter of having the $ to do so right now. Trust me...I'm not that picky. I would just like something that's a good starter bike. I don't mind scratches, I just don't want "scratches" to turn into gouges or cracks.

kenji_808 · April 26th, 2012, 01:45 AM

Next possilbe bike ride im thinking about planning is monday may 28 memorial day.

since it'll be summer time, and everyone would most likely be off from school and work cause its a holiday

Anyone down for this?

Gorilla25 · April 26th, 2012, 06:45 AM

yepp, i'd be down. im gonna be betting that i wont have school that day because of the holiday. need to double check my school schedule. if anything, AM ride?

Also, I figured out why my bike sounded like an open header thumper and a grunty i4. One of the exhaust flanges came undone and exhaust was basically coming out of the exhaust port. SUPER loud. I thought it was detonation until I saw it.
