    Get 'er back on the road JP & ride..My opinion these bikes need to have their tires turning as much as possible..Mine gets moody if she isn't running daily. keep in touch, I ran into a few other 650.com riders at the last Dulono's..Good folks & great bikes!

    Does this sound normal?

    Pull the adjuster out, remove spring, add washer, put spring back on & instal to spec. Noise will go away. At least it did for me..

    Good to see Dirty Ernie & Classic @ the Bike Show last night. We need to find Classic another 650 although that half caf/gold wing was pretty bad ass....Ernie's buddy on a KZ1000 with Blue Gost flames was quite a trooper to make it down to the show with mom at home nursing a week old baby...
