Premium Member so1102 Posted March 25, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted March 25, 2016 I resemble that remark! LOL@so1102 - did you get my PM, I send you a small video about installing the Denali Horn. Yes thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Ok, here it is in all it's filth. I hired someone to wash it for me but they never showed up for the big bucks. Lol you installed the exhaust the "wrong way" You're the first person that has pointed that out, thanks! Ever since I put it on I've always felt that it looked a little odd. After looking at the hanger it appears I put it (the hanger) on backwards but I remember when I installed it I thought it needed to be hung that way, cocked out like that to be kept away from the swing-arm to avoid it touching and causing vibration but apparently I over guessed it. Thanks again, bud! Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you say that because right before I posted that I looked at other peoples Akra CF pipes on you tube and guess what ... almost every pipe I saw was hung a different way so I guess there really isn't no "Right Way" because there were no instructions to achieve the right way. Still, I do think it looks odd (while others may not) so I will be making a change to that. You watch, later after I've done it someone else will say it's wrong, ha! Ain't that the way it always goes?! 1 Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem solved ☺ IDK I just followed the instructions and a bit of common sense on mine and it seems to have turned out just fine (see here: http://fz07.org/post/70827 ). No sticker re-jiggering needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member so1102 Posted March 25, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted March 25, 2016 Took a nice long 2 1/2 hr ride out to lake Bartlett and back. Only had to stop to clean bugs off my visor three times LOL. Smart of me to pack some cleaner and a microfiber towel in my backpack. Oh, and getting hit in the adam's apple by a bug while going 90 is no bueno. Had to get a picture of this sign which says "Whoa! Slow Down! Horse town" -- uh, yeah, right. Sure thing boss. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetgirl Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 They are the smoothe riders and the mileage whores whereas the blurples seem to be the sexy librarian that doesnt get out much So you admit that blurple is sexy. FYI I took Earl out for 11,050 miles in 7 months. Yeah I know, if I move south, it could be a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yamahaha Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Insured mine today after sitting for the winter. Checked all the fluid levels. Checked the tires. Installed the battery. Put the seat back on. Hit the starter button. Ree,ree,ree,ree,ree,ree,ree, and no start. Try again - No start. Try again - no start. WTF. Not even a hiccup. Take the ffnn seat back off. Check fuses. Try again - no start. I had to squirt a little gas into the air intake to get her running. I topped her off with premium gas last Nov. and added some fuel stabilizer. I might have screwed myself by using very old stabilizer. Took her for a good run. Runs great and starts ok now. First time I've had an issue starting a fuel injected bike after sitting all winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right there is reason enough to wear a full face. I've had bugs hit me at 70+ that felt like someone threw an egg at me and almost knocked me off the bike. I'm glad I was wearing my, what became a very bug gut soiled and opaque shield helmet. 1 Why can't left turners see us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hefae Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Took her out for a long ride today. Also installed LED turn signals front and back, and hacked off the license plate dong. Fender eliminator is almost a necessary mod. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You planning on getting her something for herself? Engaging with people that have personality disorders on a message board is like arguing with a rock.

SkH Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Daughter got ready for the riding season. My wife made her custom kevlar jeans. She also got to try her new pink leather jacket and her own sena bluetooth. She stepped up this year and rode pillion out into the streets (her idea). She rode 10 miles around 35 mph streets. 7 I visit here at least once a week. Got any questions, ask and I will answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
