I think they came to $60/pair with shipping.
The install is what's gonna cost you!

If I remember, it's 3/8 drive Husky Click-type that reads
metric and fractional. I also have a deflection type.
Can't recall the ranges, I'll check tomorrow when I'm at Mom's.



Cool. I have a big ol 1/2" Husky also. I can strap it to the bike if I need to

Love to see the new Tiger!!

As part of the day, I will be removing my Thruxton Fork caps, so maybe if someone else wants them... They really don't do anything with progressive springs...

You might be better off to go up to 287, and come across the
Tappan Zee. On to the Hutch which turns into the Merritt.

I'm at the very beginning of the shore in middletown exit 117
I know the GWB is a pain the butt but it is the shortest way. But it shouldn't be too bad early AM. on the way home I might go over the Tappanzee.

I think thats going to be the lesser of 2 evils UC.
So where do we meet up and what time, I had planned to ride pretty early but not before light
Is there a rest area on 287? I dont get up that way too often

Forgive me for speaking fluent Muzzle - The TZ lane closures are perhaps a non-event on a Saturday. Just wanted to offer up the link, as every now & then major bridge beam swaps and such happen on the weekends. That may not be part of this gig though.

I've been looking at the map and we could take the GSP all the way to I-87 east and go over the TZ if you want.

Oh H3ll, let's make the trip a fond memory for them - Run the CBX, & the BQE, then mix in a little LIE & up over the Throggs Neck.

Running shoulder to shoulder on the LIE with those 40 yard sand & gravel buckets loaded up to 130,000 lbs gross with their dual tires squashed together from over load is the only way to fly.

Charlie,

Your taking this CT. millionaire thing to far.

Belt drive, cush drive, progressive springs, 440's.

I can keep up with you and stay married at the same time !!

My springs arrived today and my TBS needles and 155 jets are in for pickup.

I could not wait and put the boards on the other day, why did I wait so long !!!!.
