A While back I put up a post about how my temp gauge wasnt working just displaying the two dashes (--). After looking into it, and checking the guage connectors, fan sensor and fuses I concluded that it must be the ECT thermo sensor thats located under the thermostat. This sucked cuase it meant that I had to take the tank, air box, and the throttle bodies off. Well I ordered the sensor and yesterday i got to it. After taking the airbox and tank off and could actually see the sensor, what did I see? Well apparently a small creature had taken up residence in my bike cause the wire harness connecting the sensor was all chewed up, one wire was completely chewed through. luckily i didnt have to take the throttle bodies off and got the harness out far enough to solder and fix the wires now everthing works good. Craziness! Also, put new tires on (Pirelli Diablos), changed the oil (HP4), put red rim stripes on, changed the air filter, cleaned, lubed and adjusted the chain ande put a pro grip tank protector on! Also look at the pic we set up a way to hoist the bike to work on the wheels. It looked like a gavel! lol

Damn Rodents!

Yep, the little buggers will get you.

Set some traps wherever you store your bike.

 

That sucks...we had a mouse at my work that ate some of a tube of superglue. They will eat ANYTHING! Say, I am very interested in Pirelli's, what do you think of them so far. Which model did you get?

 

I bought the diablos (high performance street tire) they also make the diablo strada sport touring model and the diablo corsa for more track riding. So far I love them. They are very grippy and the tread design looks sweet. Not to mention there is a ton of tread on them. Also, everyone else buy pilot powers and qualifiers and i wanted to try somethin different.

 

Is it just the pic or is your exhaust on the left side?

 

my camera phone is messed up and it took it upside down so i think its inverted. Also look at the second pic, its on the right side
