Title: Bike runs perfectly, pissed
Post by: BeerGarage on October 16, 2009, 09:12:03 PM
Bike runs great.  I'm PISSED.  I have nothing to wrench on. 

Anyone have some broken or stock (and modifiable) parts laying around you want to get rid of?  A basket case in N Cal, N Bay? 

Anyone have a 1986 red / black GSXR750 that just needs a carb clean and you want to give it to me for free?  No?  OK, a stock GS fuel valve?  A beer?

Beer!  I have one in the fridge!  Screw you guys, I'm out-a here.

@BeerGarage - you can always make it run better  :thumb: for example you could swap pistons for larger ones, bore the cylinders, etc and make it more powerfull.
Sounds like fun, doesn't it?
enjoy your beer  :cheers:

But you can always upgrade,  instead of fix?

this is what i did...

However, the statement "You can always make things run better"  by boring cylinders and slapping bigger pistons...on an engine that ran perfectly fine   :p

Having a bigger cc motor that runs well doesnt mean it doesnt run just as well as a stocker.

I personally am a hypocrite... Instead of fixing things, i replace it with better.

Leak or spilt beer? If it's spilt beer someone, should smack you with a monkey wrench!

Spilt beer?  God, no.  I just pissed myself is all.  Spilling a beer would be so embarrasing!
