How did he change gears while running the bike in second without having a leg over the bike? The lever moves but it must be ghost rider on that thing.

Good video. Chain tension is one of those things I'm stressing over because honestly i wouldn't have a clue if it's right or not, aswell as how much lube to use. I have 4cm of difference between the lowest point of the chain (with me pulling down on it) and the highest (me pushing it up) - is that the correct way to measure? Should i look at adjusting my chain? GPX manual says 35mm - 40mm is standard, sound about right?

Edit: Also the wheel alignment notches are different by about 1mm, is that close enough? It all should be good considering it only came from the dealer like 8 weeks ago.

Lol, yea cheers, i like em, i put em on all my bikes.

Thro, They are the best pit gloves around .... and in cold days rock. I used to buy the expensive Mechanix ones, and they lasted bugger all (fingers wear away), now i get these ones (what all GP teams love to use in pits as disposables) for a pack of 20, for $4

Nice vid, I know I felt like a cock the first time I had to take my bike back to the dealer to get them to show me how to tighten the chain. Wish I had seen your vid before that.

So Saf...errr....foofie, is that you ?

Good work if it is, i never thought to use a drift to pull the wheel up on the adjusters. I always used the old fashioned size 10.

I have started measuring the distance from the centre of the swingarm pivot to the centre of the axle for even alignment, i just don't trust those swingarms to be correct.
But then again, my measuring is probably shit anyway. I need to make a better set up than a bent coat hanger

[RICO]

Bump for noobs

[Fastgirl]

Frickin awesome.

*looks ashamedly at dirty chain n sprocket after looking at Foofies* I shall go whip myself in shame.

[BERT]

Is there a compressor on board for the airshifter or is it just an air receiver that is filled/checked
If it is a reciever what is the volume? how long does it last?
I am not looking to buy or fit one, just interested
