1. Where the heck have you been hiding? Only seen a black/yellow speedie and a red standard Bonnie once whilst visting G'ville.
2. Are you going to Georgia next weekend?
3. Don't know about the Kury grips, but make sure that they are not rubbing on the bar end weight. There should be about 1mm gap at all times between the bar end weight, and the throttle. I had a problem once because the whole throttle assembly wasn't torqued down properly, and it had slid down the handlebar toward the end weight, just a tiny bit. When I the weight of my hand rest on the throttle while coming into a parking lot for instance, there is enough slop side-to-side, to allow the throttle sleeve to rub against the end weight, causing it to actually stick open, even after I removed my hand. I moved the whole throttle assembly inward about 1-2mm, so that there was the aforementioned 1mm gap, even when I pulled toward the right side on the throttle, and have never had a problem since. I felt pretty stupid at that point, because before finding that simple fix, I had completely disassembled the throttle, and lubed EVERYTHING to death!!! Lubrication was NOT the problem!! Catch ya around maybe...
