My Ape is too quiet, I was going to core the pipes but it makes it insanely loud. Like 120 dB at idle.

So if Thursday is nice does anyone want to meet up? Have one beer or eat a meal? (Somewhere in Fort Worth or surrounding area around 7pm??)
If we get a couple replies I will make a new thread. |

Lol, have ONE beer. How is riding a motorcycle tipsy? It sounds kind of dangerous. By the way, do you have to have motorcycle insurance before you can go to the DMV and get your motorcycle license? |

I have heard many stories of tickets. Best to trailer or truck it up there. Or get a licensed friend to ride it.

Well I will drink about 1 beer an hour and sit around, drink some water, eat something. I am very careful. I don't get tipsy when I ride. I do know some people that will drink like 3 or 4 beers and not eat. Only sit at the bar for like an hour and then ride home I kinda want to follow them just to see the carnage. |

Haha, yeah, I've heard about this. I think you can get a permit or something and as long as their is a licensed friend with you, you're okay. I completed the MSF motorcycle safety course so I should only have to take the written portion of the exam though right?

Oh man that will be fun I havent had to do mine yet but if you need help and are in the area I will try to offer assistance when I can. On the bikes I have done they are not too big of a deal just time consuming.

Yeah, I have to take off or lift up the tank and then take off the chin spoiler. I was hoping someone could supervise me or maybe walk me through it since I've never done this before. I went outside and lifted up the tank, but I couldn't tell what I was supposed to do after that. Maybe I'll try to pick up a service manual and try again. |

if he's really worried about spilling gas, just siphon it all out.. can't be more than.. what.. 4 gallons or so if it's completely full?... go ride around for a while and burn off 'extra' gas first?... can't take very long to empty a tank on an RC51 I'd guess! |

As for the bikes I suggest riding them all. The RSVR and RC51 will smoke the other 2 bikes. Plus with the Ape you will get Brembos and Ohlins in cluded in the price so if it is a bit higher that is why Totally worth it! Last one is my gf not me..... |

Yeah, I know,.. the 'sportier' bikes will smoke the less-so... not really my main focus. I have sporty-enough bikes if I want that. I just am in the mood for a nice torquey twin, at least this month... my 'wants' change all the time. I really just need to win the damned lottery b/c I have a list of about 30 bikes I want (old and new).
