you want to sell your clip-ons?

Sorry man, put the clip-ons on the bike. Took the bars off.

What clip-ons did you get?  Did they go on easily?  I've got an S4rs too and am thinking about the Speedymoto's.

I got a set of Cyclecats back from a buddy. I ran them on my old DS 1000 Monster and sold them off. He started to part the bike out and I managed to get the clip-ons back from him.
They're great if you can em!  ;D

The new speedy moto ones look great, but I think i'd hold out for the rumored Apex bars with risers. Jeff at Monsterparts said they would be coming out sometime in the near future. Personally, I like a little rise.

Want to meet earlier to stave off some of that hot heat sun stuff?

Glad I wasn't a hard commit.  Family plans changed and I'm out now.

I don't think I've managed one good/fun ride so far this season and the year is half over!  :-\

Yah,  but I'm gonna shower here in a bit.

I have my 3 day trip coming up.  I'm trying to work out a trip to Bend area.  And I have a 4 day trip I might go on in August so I'll make up in sheer volume what I'm missing out on in weekend rides.

That 4 day trip the guy I'm going with wants to do something close to 900 miles to the destination 2 3-500 mile days while we're there, and then 900 back on the 4th.

I can't help but think 900 on the Monster is gonna be rough.  I wasn't overly pleased with my 600+ day.

Oh, and I'm gonna head up to MotoCorsa in the morning to pick up oil, etc. so I can have some nice new lube in her for the trip next weekend.

Oh, speaking of which . . . how do I determine if I have good/adequate break pad left?

Just make sure you have 1/4" to 1/8" of pad left. Also depending on the brake pads. you can see if you have groves left in the pad. if you have a decent grove you should be good to go. You will usally only have the groves in the pad on the front, the rear pad is doesn't always have one.

See you all at MotoCorsa!  [thumbsup]

I'll likely drop by and say hi as I'm buying my oil.

I am out. I have duties to take care of. Have fun and keep the rubber side down.  [moto]
