If you've got the subframe, I'd be glad to take it off your hands.

Sorry to bring up this old craptastic thread, but I think I've got it fixed now. While the VR gets super hot, I think the short may have been because of the wiring, or maybe because I took off the Exup directly out of the cdi. In any case she seems to be doing great, now before I go off to college a...

Well I just rode it 7 miles in the rain after letting it warm up completely for about 10 minutes. I also ground down the frame a bit to allow for some new metal to get in contact with that ground that hooks to the VR. It seemed to work fine (but it always does, till it blows), so now I wait for anot...

I throughly enjoyed this thread. Thank you for a laugh.

Just the man I was hoping might chime in? I agree with Don, it could be the wiring, but I doubt it, it looks fairly solid. But what do you think YG?

Well I hate to say it but I do have the new VR. The engine and electronics are of 1998 600 stock. But a bad VR would cause the main fuse to blow when it gets hot? Then it seems to work fine when she cools down, and I've replaced the fuse.

So the main fuse, 30amp blows when the bike gets hot. It doesn't short when I disconnect the VR so I'm guessing its the VR. But do you guys have any suggestions, I'm just about hitting my head on the garage door.

I purchased a bt16 150/70/18, not only is it somewhat larger than the 60 but in my opinion it looks awesome. It will last longer than most all the tires in our size, and I picked up all the side strips on mine in the first few days of riding. I've not had it slip out yet. Super nice tire, however it...

Dont forget the special Vance and Hines ones that were made.
Lol, I've got those.

Lol, I was gonna say I've gone ridding nekked a few times. But thats only in the summer when it's 115 or 120 degrees.

V&H side covers are mine! So is Fox. So I might want to either depart with my Racetech R6 shock, or the Fox.

So which one of you blarmy pirates knows how to tune for pod filters? I'm figuring I just need to go up a main jet size or two, and drop the needle a peg. But if there is something more, please inform me. I just picked up a pair of K&N's for 10 bucks. Oh at a local salvage yard an FZR has a Fox shoc...

Its an 03 R6 Sharkskins tail. Just a standard thing. Looks pretty bad ass though eh?

GoPro video is forthcoming. Photobucket is slow to upload.

tie straps from the rafters of the garage, i remember that fondly...well maybe not fondly, but i remember that! did you make the rear subframe? Nah, thats the stock subframe, just drilled out to save weight... Its also cut about 8 inches short so I've got to weld some bits back together. But she's ...
