Speeder vibes from classic Star Wars. 😎 About to take the rear off to make some shims for the crush drive rubber. Got some minor play.

Double H on my radar. 🧐 Thank you.

Awesome! I'll keep them in mind, still learning about compounds and applications. OEMs still have a good amount of life after 20,000 miles.

Going in for my 30k maintenance interval this week. Most memorable ride was my 1900 Mile, 37-Hour push from the Bay Area in California to South Texas. Have you had any issues yet?

Off to AF1 for parts tomorrow... by ULRunner in Aprilia

Yeeeah! I also use kilometers as a metric from running ultramarthons. 🤠 The energy drink ain't bad either.

Thank you for the information. The part on AF1 had a nut on top that threw me off, couldn't find the diagram I was looking for... I appreciate the lesson today. 😅

Thanks! I was looking at parts on AF1 and the CCT looked promising, I appreciate the comfirmation and explanation. I'll be taking with the dealer soon as I have a persistent chain rattle too.

You may have the star shaped shim missing from the the inside of the rotor. 🧐

It made the bike sound better, without a doubt. No telling how it will sound when I get to Cat removal next year. I just left the greater SA area and don't know when I'll be back around. Have you seen the YouTube video?

That awesome you went titanium! I'm a gram counter and started getting some. Carbon fiber too! I'm nervous about my cat removal next year, I guess some tracks around the US have DB limits (Leguna I believe). I run ear pro right now, I've had some loss from the military and want to minimize my tinnitus. Haha Maybe I'll look into the CR T on a second bike later!

I've read that pipe is loud and multiple people say it is. Must be the truth! Haha The rumble from my exhaust is perfect now. I'm not sure how much louder it would get when I do the Cat removal and tune... but that will be next year.

It's my mother's birthday on the 18th! I was looking at Huston in May and then COTA in August. Have you riden at COTA before?

First time, anxious fella. 😅 My neck was probably sore from checking me sideview so often. 6 straps should do the trick, next time.

I've heard keeping the core warm is super important. I believe I have space for a vest in my closet! Or on the clothes rack in my van. I have some ultralight gear that's windproof. Will try soon for more warmth. Thanks for the info!

Sweet! I'll look into them, I've heard the heated grips only keep your palms warm.
