  3. Eek, a mouse... 24 Jul 2011 15:40 Count me in. I found the throttle response a bit flat when I first brought the bike home. :goofy: [image: gallery_7079_2026_44870.jpg] It's a mouse house!

  8. Replacement head light bulbs 3 Jun 2010 22:53 ... just played with it for a bit until it sat in properly That's the key to proper aim - snip the 2 bottom tabs with a pair of side cutters (its clean and won't distort the seating ring like bending the tabs may) -…

  10. 929 Shock w/ Ohlins Spring 7 May 2010 03:20 So, not only in theory but in fact, the Ohlins 1092 spring will fit on an oem CBR 929 shock with some minor mods. :fing02: [image: Posted Image] MAY2010 001.JPG Installed it in the bike and checked sag. Much better. I…

  13. 929 Shock w/ Ohlins Spring 24 Apr 2010 01:19 After scrutinizing the 929 shock and Ohlins spring, it looks like I'm going to have the same problem as this member did. click here The ID is much smaller on the OEM spring so the Ohlins spring is loose/sloppy on the…
  14. 929 Shock w/ Ohlins Spring 18 Apr 2010 17:53 No one? I'll be sure to let you know how it goes then. :rolleyes:
  15. 929 Shock w/ Ohlins Spring 16 Apr 2010 01:22 In theory, the 1092 Ohlins spring will fit the 929 shock no problem. It's a bit longer (1/4" approx.) so it will have some built in preload. :laugh: Question is, has anyone used a 1092 spring on a 929 shock? I've got…

  28. Do Thermostats Partially Fail? 19 Sep 2008 15:25 Yes, they can partially fail. If your digging all the way in to check your thermostat, you may as well replace it so you don't have to go back in later, when it does fail. Cheap insurance.
