I was told heidenau changed de rubber and they don't last as much as before. How many km are you getting from the k60 tires.?? Thanks

I installed the mcct yesterday pulling the clutch cover off. An easy task. I put a ratchet socket behind the chain guide (small amount of pressure to make it fit) and then installed the mcct. Adjusted the mcct in until the socket got loose and fell off by itself and then turned the mcct off a...

Hi. I bought the graves unit and I have been doing some research before the installation. My question is if I really need to open the clutch cover. I know it is safer because tis the only way of keeping the chain tight while changing the cct. However, there are some who have done the changeover...

I already bought the graves manual Cct but have not installed yet. Do I have to definitely open the clutch case to ensure the chain won't slip??? Is there any other way of doing it without undoing the whole case?? Opening the the timing plug and aligning it at k point would be enough to avoid...

No pictures taken!!! I opened the cat making a rectangular cut in the underneath side. I will make a sketch and send it I to you if you want to!!! I thought it was going to get louder but definitely not. I did a short loop around my neighborhood but I definitely feel the acceleration is better...

I díd the gutting today. I regret not doing it before. A very easy task!!! I paid around 12 dollars for the TIG weld. What a cheap way to get a full system!!!

I wonder what spring rate you got and what your weight is. I got a 01096-54/140 L4710 and my weight with riding gear on is 85 kg. I bought a second spring for half price. A 01111-59/150 but I feel it is too stiff when riding solo. I am mostly trying to figure out what spring fits better my...

does anyone know what type of coolant is the one that comes with the bike from new?? I changed the stock coolant for OAT technology after 15k kilometers and have been using OAT since then. Any recommendations? What coolant are you using?? Thanks

Thanks you all. I bought a graves cct from revzilla. Chose the graves one because of the grove that lets the oil run trough spilling the chain and going down to the cranckcase but still keeping the pressure. To me that was the main reason for choosing the graves cct from the ape or the chinese...

But how do you know when is adjusted properly??? My concern is over tightening it and wear out the chain and gears.

Hi. I have a 2012 St and I want to upgrade my cct. Which one to choose and why?? I have found the manual cct is a lot cheaper than the oem hydraulic cct. I have also a question regarding how to know what the correct tension is when adjusting the manual cct??? My bike has 50 000 kilometers...

My bike is 2012. None of the rubber plugs is missing since I glued them since new.

Hi. I just did the rear suspension and swingarm maintenance. And changed the front seal of the final drive because it was leaking. I was surprised with the amount of sand and debris inside the swingarm and obviously that was the reason of the oil leak. I got all the rubber plugs sealed with...

Berg how are you. So based on the difference in weight, would you think I will be ok with the 800 lb/in spring? Doing some calculation you and your wife are 20 kg heavier than us and you are running the next spring from ours. What spring you got a 1096 or a 1099?. Thanks
