When I hit second it seemed like the clutch might be slipping a little. When I got home and was positioning it in the garage it wouldn't stay in neutral. When do they usually need changing? '06 TBA - Black, AI and Snorkel removed, K&N Drop In, Gutted Stock Pipes, 145/42, 2 turns out.

When I changed them out the stock plates were black and scorched. Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

The number of times I have just installed Barnet springs and the bike goes on just fine. I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. Edgar Allan Poe

Ask anyone that has squeezed my clutch lever, they are stiff Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
