    Amsoil benefit

    Amsoil is it's own company that makes a whole line of fluids from oils for anything to brake fluid and cleaners. I've been using them in auto racing for years. They are pretty muchthe only oil company that will publish actual test results for industry standard tests and not just put out...

    header wrapping?

    Any auto parts store should have it next to the exhaust wrap. You might need to find a performance shop.

    header wrapping?

    The HT is the coating made for exhaust wrap. It had different resins and binders in it. You can spray the headers before hand with it and then the wrap after.

    STT front fender

    Now this has me thinking. Will the TT number plates bolt up on an 04 XB12S in place of the passenger pegs?

    Cheapest and best mods.

    I would say some ebay turn signals too. I got a set (2 pairs) of LED's for like $40.

    header wrapping?

    I would spray the headers with the HT spray before you wrap them. Also take your time and make sure you're only doing 1/4" overlap nice and tight. That should elevate any hot spots.

    Cheapest and best mods.

    What kind of mods are you looking for? Performance or looks? performance wise you're not going to get very far on $100. Looks wise you have more options. There's always a little carbon this or anodized that.

    3000k RPM's at 60 mph?? Is that normal

    Well I'm usually cruising along at 75-80 so I'm at at least 4k most of the time. Would the extra 2 teeth make that big of a difference?

    3000k RPM's at 60 mph?? Is that normal

    Has anyone tried one of the 29 tooth pulleys on the tranny side? I'd like to know how much of a difference it makes. I do a lot of highway riding and I'd like to bring down the revs some.

    where do u find vent around gas cap??????

    It all depends on what color you want. If you order the old solid colors you will get it without the vent. There are certain models/years that have the solid colors and the vent. Like mine is racing red so I got the 2010 XB12XT cover in racing red cause it comes with the vent.

    Fork oil question

    I haven't changed mine yet but I got some Amsoil STM which is equivalent to 10wt. They make one that is 5wt but I'm going to stick with the stock wt. I'm also thinking about putting in the progressive rate springs while I'm in there.

    EBC brake pads who has them?

    I've used EBC's a couple times in auto racing and absolutely hated them for my wilwoods and brembos. Not sure if they are any better with motorcycles but they are too tainted in my mind. I just got ferodos for my bike and love them.

    Need a reccomendation

    I thought the keep up comment was more about the abilities of the blast not the rider. My GF has been thinking about a blast also. A 9 would be too much bike for her to learn on. Blasts are perfect for learning and most girls won't get "bored" with them cause they are not into riding for the...

    XB12R vs GSXR 600

    Most of the stats i remember looking up when I bought mine, the 1200's had about the same hp numbers as most 600cc jap bikes but a lot more (sometimes twice) the torque of them. I would expect the 1200's to beat them in a race or at least be even. I could be remembering the numbers wrong though...

    Anyone had some close calls or collisions.

    Best advice is drive like everyone is trying to hit you. Also stay out of peoples blind spots. I juat had a accident about a month ago. I had a little kid on a ATV ride out into the road without looking and ran right into the side of me. Bike highsided and threw me. Broke my leg and shoulder...

    Just bought a Lightning

    I'd say that's a good deal. I paid 4700 for my 04 with 7k on it. Mine was immaculate though.

    Headlight problem

    Bajabomber - That's a good idea with the zip tie. I've just been popping my windscreen off and messing with the connector.
