Still scaring the bejebus out of me, but I do push the throttle and RPM a little bit harder with each ride. Thinking of putting a sprocket set on it, as redlining at ~165km/h in 1st gear is not very practical. By the time you're in the engine's happy range (~6000rpm+) you're usually at the speed limit. At that rate I'm not going to last on my option notice. What does 1st take you to on the GSX?

lol, use the footbrake for hillstarts!

not sure what 1st gets me to.. don't really look :D

edit: from the looks of things about 85 ish in this vid:

GT -and- single speed, he posted 2 different bikes :P

lol. that said..

I need 1 x chris king iso 9 speed rear hub.

1 x rear shitmano slx brake,

and a shitmano 105 9spd cassette.

1 xtr short cage rear d.

and i'll be set with my pushy build.

Might sound stupid but I thought that viper alarms weren't ADR complianced?

Correct me if I'm wrong because that's the reason I hadn't bothered to look at Viper

I was under that impression too when I was looking around at alarms but I was talking to the guys at freeway car audio who did the install for me and they said they do comply if you get an all black wiring harness. Which they could order.

I just picked up an Iron Horse Warrior frame and brand new $25 headset for $3 on ebay, going to build a single speed MTB

singlespeeds are too impractical, can't pedal hop with 26/12, can't go anywhere properly with 26/18.

Nice, nice!

    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to more wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.    
    • I put Whiteline pineapples in my old 33, they came in a 6 pack of them, got rid of the axle tramp altogether, cheap, quick and easy install,  they were pretty solid units though...???high durometer???? and NVH was increased a fair bit How hard are the ones you installed?
