Someone's looking for some quick info. I did what I could, but I'm not an owner.

You guys were doing ok on the bar-the spacer can be purchased from Lowes in the electrical department and I believe is called a extension tube for ceiling fans. Cut it to size with a tubing cutter and while in Lowes pick up some longer metric bolts to go with the metric acorn nuts you already have.

I believe Moon invented this and has passed it on

That's some seriously flawed logic, my friend.

Gave it a twisted giggle but not funny, I had a CBR900rr and it did kick my arrs, killed me 3 times but this cats got 9 lives.
Made it back from glamis, got there and back in 1 piece. Jumped the truck 6 foot 3 times, put about 20 hours on my quad and only busted my arrs 1 time, awsome adventure.

Maybe I'm wrong and it could be another verse, and you could've done it intentionally.............but isn't it "I have a limo, ride in the back. I lock the doors in case I'm attacked"?

Always been a Joe Walsh fan from the early James Gang days!

Looking for advice…errr…not that kind of advice
I’m upgrading my current OEM radiator to a BHR (Charles) radiator next week. Anyways, I’m seeking advice on what to do with the OEM thermostat. I'm currently running the OEM thermostat with 30k on it and with a 30/70 mixture which includes two bottles of waterweter. Should I keep the current OEM or should I change it to a lower temp thermostat? Keep in mind that I’m located in Central Florida and I have no plans to drive my car in a cold environment (below 40F).

I could not find it but there was a whole thread on this some time back. The consensus on the thread was that the OEM thermostat was the recommended way to go. I don't remember all the reasons. With all the trouble I had in the past I was ready to do something but was advised not to. I think that MM was part of that discussion.

Munche, the 8 looks good.
