    When an Aunt of mine passed 8 years ago, she had thousands of DVD's. Her siblings tried to sell them at pennies on the dollar, with no interest. They ended up in a landfill. She used to comment periodically about struggling financially, and here she blew tens of thousands of dollars on thousands...

    S100 Total Cycle Cleaner

    In the factory service manual for the CBR1100XX I used to own, it states to apply a thin coat of grease to the axle(s). Now that's not a VFR, but it is a Honda. The same recommendation is in every service manual for other brands I own.

    @Cujet, better be careful with Florida's new speeding law!

    Here's a brief look at what 249 mph on a two-lane highway looks like, from a former NASCAR racecar. God bless America.

    I've noticed the same on every bike I've ever owned. That's one reason all of our Sportbikes run 15w50. It maintains slick shifting better when running the bikes hard at higher oil and ambient temps.

    It's a good time. There are many classes you can run in.

    S100 Total Cycle Cleaner

    Installation error. There should have been a thin layer of grease applied to prevent corrosion, and the two parts seizing together.

    I've been using the OEM Suzuki filter, or the Hiflo filtro filter on my big bore stroker 1st gen Hayabusa for 23 years. And for a couple years on my stock 3rd gen Hayabusa. It's a good filter. I'm not sure what would need improving.

    Overpriced truck; '97 F-350.

    That's in the California desert. In a lot of the country these trucks have rotted away, and those remaining are rarely in good shape. The fact is to a certain group of people, these are highly desirable. As I and others have said. It wouldn't surprise me if this seller gets his price.

    His passing is a great loss to hot rodders everywhere. RIP. Another Ed, Ed Iskenderian, will be 104 on the July 10th. Here he is at the NHRA finals last November. Official NHRA pic

    Project Cobra

    Yep. Aluminum Chrysler 426 Hemi street block, with a dry sump oil pan, and sprinkled with lots of fuel racing-based parts, as the owner is a former teammate, who built short blocks for DSR (Don Schumacher Racing). It took some fabrication to get it in place. It's sacrilege. It's also awesome. 😁

    Project Cobra

    With the Al block, heads, and fully dressed as installed, it's about 550 lbs. Much lighter than a cast iron Elephant. It's in the ballpark weight wise of a 351W.

    I know a guy who put a KB 426 Hemi (actual displacement over 550 ci) in his kit Cobra. It's peppy.
