Cooter, did you take Hwy 101 and 1 up the coast to Monterey? Just curious cuz I live just off 101 near Pismo Beach.
NO, we did all backroads, both ways up to Monterey, EPIC!! The only time we did the 101 was 3 of us did a trip north through the Redwoods then into SF for a tire, then passing a speed trap over 105mph (at the END of a passing lane zone:down:) and he never even looked up as we slammed on full brakes past him haha!
I do have friends in Pizmo though and will hit the beach when I need a summer sand-toy fix:up:
Because if 43 teeth it good, might as well go 44!

Good bye reversed (to hide the Boyd 90's fluting) aluminum 43 tooth...

Since the 43 tooth already gave me a ghost 4th gear on the cluster, whats the worst that could happen:)
Check out that calendar in the photo!
Looks like you have a shorter wheel base now?:D
The 43 to 44 conversion didn't need too much chain adjustment and there is plenty left. 45 tooth next??
Oh heck no... This thing is wheels up to the sky if you even THINK about full throttle. TWICE now I have unintentionally wheelied past someone just making a pass. I'm quite sure that somewhere on a Prius forum there a guy complaining about "Psyco crotch rocket hooligans" and I'm that guy:upset:
More goodies!

Since there is NO WAY to mount clip-ons to the front of the SX without moving the key...
In my mind, I could convert the SX to an RX for fun track days and shooting up the mountain, then swap the parts back easily for a longer ride. Reality is painfully real that it might take a bit more effort than I want it to. Which means I'd just leave it in 'race trim', which means I should have just left it well enough alone and got a cheap RX track bike.
I guess I could have worse problems:cool:
I still really, really, like way the big tips sound and look.

And she just got new shoes! I went with Corsa II's. I am alway so amazed how new tires immediatly feel better and give more confidence.
I just realized my upper chain guard fell off? WTH?
is that rust on the exhaust pipe?
What do you expect, this is Buell, rusting pipes, falling off guards.
