I redid my new-to-me ZRX calipers this year since it was apparent they had never been touched. Turning A into B is quite a satisfying process. The rear was so bad I was surprised it still worked.

Installed Cobra exhaust and intake yesterday (I know it's not a sportbike but it's all I got). ECU is set to return today with an additional 14hp and 10 lbs-ft of grunt!

Cali Ride May 2016

Over the winter, there was a strong current of interest in riding in California 'early season' ( i.e., May) as an adjunct to, or replacement for, the usual Sept/Oct Nor Cal BCSB WWD trip. And since I had a lot of unfinished business left after a weather-restricted two weeks that LCPeter and I...
