@Bluethunder: i know youre confused bud... sometimes that happens around here :)

The exuast port gaskets: as it stands right now... if you do anything with your engine wrench-wise... Hubs idea (abstract) is the easiest to perform.
And it has merit: loose doughnut gaskets on a V8 sound like collapsed lifters. I know... this isnt a V8... but the operating theory is applicable. And youre sure your gaskets have been disturbed yes?

Valve clearance checks are a PITA on in-line fours. If your scoot truly has only 4K on the meter... the odds FAVOR your clearances are within tolerance. This is a statisitcal argument... not the absolute.

Without beimg there to hear and feel your scoot... i cant rule out ordinary cam chain slap. Is there anything else you can do to give us a better sampling of the tick?

Sure I will upload another video in a day or so. my thing it that if I touch a screwdriver to the engine and put it to me ear at the smame time I can hear the tick through the screww driver, can a gasket do that??

Sorry guys, I do all my own wrenching on my jeep and other vehicles but when it come to this i am in the dark. I appreciate all the help.

Hey for what it's worth, my bike makes the exact same noise. It's 2009, I got it used with about 3500 miles and it's been there as long as I've had it. It's really really annoying, and if you find out what it is that would be great. I did take my bike in for 7k maintenance package, mostly because I wanted a certified mechanic to check it out since I got it used. He assured me that there was nothing at all wrong with it and that it was just normal ZX14 noise.

TBH, I do still have doubts, because that really is a loud-ass ticking and it's hard to believe that's normal. I am thinking about taking it to another guy who is supposedly the ZX14 guru for New Orleans. He has been a mechanic for 30+ years, and owns 4 different model years of ZX14. If I do take it to him I'll let you know, and I'll keep an eye on here in case you find out something.

Safe riding,

"I called a spacer, you called bent axle... Pee Wee ID!"...you called shit...that's what you called....qoute me then a-hole where I said ANYTHING about a bent f-ing axle.You copied my suggestions...just like ya do everyone elses here that actually nails a problem...and tried as you always do to make a confusing issue so the OP doesn't know what's real and what isn't.I said about the engine noise...it's NORMAL....Caroobs said...his mech said it's NORMAL...ya f-n looser....you want to jump from post to post and throw stuff in that's not even part of the original question.Mind yer own business...I KNOW what I know...whether you like it or not .My 07 made that exact sound...with the fairing off. It's just the noise reverberating off the fairing in there...that's all it is.You say I don't get it?I don't read the post?He said his bike had 4K on it...why the fuck would I ask about VALVE adjustments...NO ZX14 EVER needed valve adjustments at 4k ya fuckhead.Mine went 24K...and were still factory spec...and that's 24K of fast hard miles.So blow it out yer ass troll.


I don't hear anything on that vid that would suggest a problem...sorry...but I don't.If you do Hub....fine....then say it without slamming someone else who just might have some experience with that sound that I'm hearing...which is normal IMO.Like always...you want to get a new guy completely worried about something that he doesn't need to be worried about....Talk about a friggin goose chase...you'll have him runnin from here to there trying to find some'phantom' sound...that's yer trademark saying when you really don't know SHIT about what's going on...."phantom'?WTF?Nice try dickhead.
BTW...get a job...you've been living off us workin stiffs long enough.Take some of that Master Tech shit you're so proud of and get a job in a REAL bike shop....anyone would be happy to have you there...fixing things so efficiently...right?You talk a good game...where's the real life actions to back up the internet 'skills'?Troll.

Geez...are you sure you're not 'missing something' when you reinstall?How about your axle?Straight?

IDK, I must be stupid, but taking bearings out without either the carrier or center collar spacers [in place] is now you, 'missing something' out the motor? Is that your distortion that I'm making? Might as well you start in. How about that bent axle? Could it be the front axle taking out the rear bearings? IDK, that is how stupid I look to some around here is give pinpoint advice like trying to find tune that porcelain ring I keep missing the mark... Pee Wee ID is my ego!

ID for don't Kare how they do it in your world, GAS'd. I am showing you your abstract with a twist it so IDK stupid-stupid = IS too Stupid to begin you diagnosing some tick. I'm asking you, grn, is the OP satisfied with your answers? Is he asking what is up? Did you hear me clear that engine on shutdown?

Think I can convince the guy yet? Think I'm going to leave that variable out, he knows noises and how fast and cheap is replacing a set of exhaust gaskets? How come you did not come out of the gate with the aftermarket exhaust, the OP can see there was evidence of one at one time? Was that a guess or was that more a lot of experience on my own?

How did you come up with two types of ticks. GAS'd? Where was [your] detailed difference so you could guide the OP to one of two conclusions? Where was yours out of the gate kind of abstract? No, yours is more an IDK I have no clue for random tick or a constant tick? You sure know now, yes or no? Where was your first out of the box, I think you are missing something but could not nail it as fast as my one post out of the gate was 'A SPACER' not a 'bent axle' is to quote your abstract. I have to reshove your kind of off the wall diagnosis right up your ass again. Do you like getting it up your ass twice? I have to chew my cabbage, right?; page 2 already!

ARE U Fucking BLIND, fella? Or am I lying to your face? Did I make this shit up, yes or no? I am walking the 'turd dull' ass I shit all over your own GAS'day in and day out is you are a loser in a way, grn! I am rechewing your abstract as your facts. YOu spoke them not me, guy. I don't make this shit up when I can back it up; the truth is a lot funny ear! King GAS'd wears no clothes kind of in denial, are we, guy? I don't suffer fools is more fool wit dem.

I am so in the reality of the chess game of said diagnosing. You, on the other hand and sad as it is... Do not see the subtle moves of the bike. You are not hands on enough to know. You are almost there. Maybe another 10, 20 years you'll get it down. It's a hard game, guy.

As my reality sees it:

Hub: Spacer
GAS'did say: Bent axle.

Hub: Exhaust change is a constant tick is to narrow it down some is walked the OP some to some variablexhaustaken off.
GAS'did mention: The bike is clear to go with the OP in question of the remaining tick.

The diagnostic score:

Hub: 1 spacer solved, 1 e-tick pending.
GAS'did: A fat 0 says a bent axle so far. LOL

RE: TICKING NOISE
05/17/12 2:19 AM

qoute me then a-hole where I said ANYTHING about a bent f-ing axle.
50 websites say to me, I need to straighten up. You see me take that axle and shove it up 50 idiots like yourself? I sure do use their own abstract and it runs in the absolute most of the time. I've lost more spacers in a garbage can in a few months, than you have worked on your all your own bikes thru the years.

You copied my suggestions...just like ya do everyone elses here that actually nails a problem

I usually add the 1+ or stay out of a Q&A that has already been answered to that absolute conclusion. Like finding a spacer missing is that conclusion.

...and tried as you always do to make a confusing issue so the OP doesn't know what's real and what isn't.
And how is it I can find 50 jerkoffs like yourself with all those ass in 9 out of 10 posts that went nowhere. Ever hear the OP come back? Probably off to another website looking for the one that makes the most sense. He comes back and explains what is left out. Fuck yeah, I'll get it wrong. But the diagnosis will be valid like a missing spacer, not a bent axle the OP can keep sliding in, you asshole50 generic kind of assholes that have no business entering those kinds of posts! LOL

Why do I chase 0 replies? Because I can answer it is why. Touch shit you passed it on. Oh, now you figured it out. Now all of a sudden there are 10 posts after mine. Why is that, guy? Fella? Buddy?


I said about the engine noise...it's NORMAL....Caroobs said...his mech said it's NORMAL...ya f-n looser....you want to jump from post to post and throw stuff in that's not even part of the original question.
At the moment, I cannot agree with you, Caroob, his mechanic, nor my ears. I am still on the [quote], 'customer complaint' side of the argument. If one takes it for a ride, still hears a tick, now says it is a constant. I don't know? Do you? Wait... LOOK who the fuck I'm asking! LOLLOLOL!

Mind yer own business...I KNOW what I know...whether you like it or not
I really do not listen to assholes like you, really! I know you do not know much. Too many bikes with too many shims needing changing, somehow in your world, @ 25K give or take a few thousand miles, yours were not even needed. Plus, you added it you pound on the bike? I'd have to look back at that mileage and throttle opening like a daily driver is up for how many shims did Rook find with the right feel of the measuring? No jamming of the blade, hello?

My 07 made that exact sound...with the fairing off.
The same tick the OP hears? How was your tick eventually addressed then?

It's just the noise reverberating off the fairing in there...that's all it is.
Says you. So, now my suggestion is null and void. Fat chance charlie. You gotta explain the guy's ears then. So, if he thinks there is a tick and is constant, I have to say it is still there after a ride is his abstract. Your conclusion is more I question you. The OP questions you.

You say I don't get it?I don't read the post?He said his bike had 4K on it...why the fuck would I ask about VALVE adjustments...NO ZX14 EVER needed valve adjustments at 4k ya fuckhead.
Funny, after I brought that up, somehow you add to it with caps. How did you conclude that?

Mine went 24K...and were still factory spec...and that's 24K of fast hard miles.So blow it out yer ass troll.
Oh cool, here it is. If the factory says 15K you better be looking; if my 18K had 9 or more shims needing a change; if Rook found a shit load on his with less mileage or for argument sake, he matched your 24K; if others came in, showed how many shims they needed on their first interval? But with your reality in question, not knowing if they were ever checked at all... I need to see a bill that someone took care of that in a professional kind of backyard kind of... Show me the mechanic's feeler gauges is I'll show you 'close enough for gov work' LOL

I don't hear anything on that vid that would suggest a problem...sorry...but I don't.If you do Hub....fine....then say it without slamming someone else who just might have some experience with that sound that I'm hearing...which is normal IMO.
At this point, I cleared the major part of that engine in my ears. I still have a subtle tick only the OP may hear that tick on his end. Where is yours and others tick variable? Slam you for it is bring it forward or stay out of the diagnosis you are done clearing the noises. BOW OUT is your last post, technically. You had your say. Go away. Simple as that. The OP and his tick are not finished, thank you.

Like always...you want to get a new guy completely worried about something that he doesn't need to be worried about....Talk about a friggin goose chase...you'll have him runnin from here to there trying to find some'phantom' sound...that's yer trademark saying when you really don't know SHIT about what's going on...."phantom'?WTF?Nice try dickhead.
The only phantom problems are things that are not mentioned as the OP places their first post. You look the dickhead with the lame questions that waste their time and mine. Clear your lame bent parts if the OP can shove them up your ass just fine. LOL WTF! 'Phantom holes' you can't fill, fella. You are not on par with the questions. You send them on the chase of the goose is a bent axle that is perfect. A cam sensor that is perfect. You get my drift guy?

BTW...get a job...you've been living off us workin stiffs long enough.
I pay taxes. I have to write a check. That means, yo momma is living off my tax is that correct or not?

Take some of that Master Tech shit you're so proud of and get a job in a REAL bike shop...
What is dis proud of? Proud I'm nailing a master tech like you? Go take apart that dash panel and figure it out, master tech advice.

anyone would be happy to have you there...fixing things so efficiently...right?You talk a good game...where's the real life actions to back up the internet 'skills'?Troll.
Man, that sounds like you talking to yourself. How is that first service coming along? LOL!!!

"GAS'did: A fat 0 says a bent axle so far. LOL"...read the manual....what's it say about axle warp.'bending'...whatever you choose to call it....testing for it being 'straight'...and how that relays to bearing issues...READ IT.Then come here and tell me I'm full of it for suggesting it in the first place.I didn't come outta thin air with the idea.KAWASAKI did.BTW...it was my idea to look at the spacers...which side were on which.Not that I care who suggested what.I don't.


4k on an 06?No...I'm not gonna think "aftermarket exhaust".I'm gonna think...whoever had it rode it for a while and decided to get rid of it without putting any cash into it.I saw the bluing on the pipes.Looked just like my 07 stock header pipe color.If it hadn't,I would have said something about exhaust noise.

Besides...trying to explain why I did what or said what to you is a waste and a stupid thing to be doing.Everyone can see what's going on here...except me probably...so...again....one more time...just for clarity here...


" Go take apart that dash panel and figure it out",....ya...you still haven't found out what's causing that...just a load of shit talking about anyone else sugggesting something that you didn't think of doing.Did ya 'fix' his problem?That seems to be ne of your 'big deals' around here...fixing problems...although...I've not seen anywhere lately where you actually called your 'diagnosis' correctly.
Quote from the tech god HUB...."I'm going to correlate the swing in memory and a low battery, or a saved memory that has to work itself out. I'm taking a guess? I say this because, I've heard a fuel gauge self corrected on its own. My guess is this is acting like the fuel gauge too. It may remain in that setting until something reverts back to its default mode or who knows? It is better to let it ride and reprogram itself as mentioned to that dash panel".Problem solved...another satisfied customer,eh Hub?Guesswork...that's all any of this is....mine...yours...anyone's.Got it?Your 'diagnosis' is no closer than MINE about what's happening to his dial(s).Stick to the OP's issue...and stop dragging other people's offers of help through the mud.Got that?

"I've heard a fuel gauge self corrected on its own"...ya...and I've heard of an axle getting warped....so what?.Apparently Kawasaki's on my side with this one...they don't say ANYTHING about 'self correcting' dials in their service manual.but they do advise their mechanics to check axle straightness...big deal right?Think I care?I don't.I just offer some suggestions...without dissing anyone or their 'opinion'...If I'm right,fine....it aint about being 'right'.No for me anyway.


Just like the sensor...yup...ya had me chasing a friggin harness wire when the symptoms were cut and dried....timing off.No harness problem...no sensor problem.Timing...that was it.And WHO figured THAT out.I did.Not you,not even a qualified Kawasaki Mech did.Little old me...not that I care...I don't.Hey...if anyone wants to listen to you talk your whatever you call it...fine...I don't care.When people,not just ONE...but EVERYONE says..."I can't understand what you're saying".....that ought to be clear enough....you want people to think you somehow have this 'deep' secret...BS...you don't know any more about this bike than the rest of us.No offense to those who actually DO know about their 14's...I know there's some here that do.Stick to the subject....talk your whatever it is....make fun of others here....diss people's families....do whatever it is that turns yer crank....leave me out of your diss...cussions.If you can't 'solve' somebodies problem...then don't be using me as your backdrop for failure.Man up and admit ya don't know...instead of dragging someone else in to take the heat ya f-n loser.


"that waste their time and mine"....what the fuck do YOU care whether I 'waste' someone's time?Listen to you,he'll be rebuilding a perfectly fine engine.Tick...wtf's a tick?THEY ALL TICK...fuck


"How is that first service coming along? LOL!!!"...just fine...I've had this bike apart enough right now for several first services.Everything is fine....everything.BTW...it has a teensy tick as well...should I have YOU diagnose it for me?Fu%$LOL!!!!!


Here's a chance for you to really 'strut yer stuff'.Since you think that my idea of a warped axle is so far fetched....please explain to everyone here just HOW an axle would get warped?...go ahead...yer on ...maybe a warped axle would 'self correct' at some point,ya think....replace enough bearings in there...you know...kinda 'make' it conform to it's original design?
BTW..."your five minutes are running out"...no fair researching on the net first.Straight off the top of your head...YOUR knowledge...not someone elses.

Need some help?Here's a little thought to get ya started....it's sitting securely 'locked' in between the swingarms...bolted in and not going anywhere...there...that ought to give ya a starter thought?


The forum's waiting....you aint gonna let us all down are ya....?????


My...it's getting warm in here...

Need a bit of help to "grease' the wheels?Get this thing rolling?......


How's yer jacket sleeve feeling without that liner in there?Nice an snug around yer arm there?......


....can anyone share anything about this ...whatever it is?????


Or THIS thingy?


Can anyone tell me what that center ring is called?Anyone at all.

RE: TICKING NOISE
05/17/12 9:19 AM

The issue is someone like you that has to look in the manual. Why bring up a bent axle if the OP can slide it in and out? Page 3 still keeps telling you 50 kind of site guys is meet up with your kind that looks in a book for the answers. You have no diagnostics off the cuff if you were out in the field. Lots of strange things you nor I can figure out, until the 20/20 'hindsite' pops up, the OP explains how out in left field you and I were both at.

He probably left out shit is take you for example. You being the joe-Ahole generic.

You left the part out were I said that both needles were set at 9 0'clock. If that was crash damage, I don't know, do you think one needle would swing to 6 o'clock on the busted dash? Funny how both are held at 9? You say it is broken. I say it has a memory glitch if both are still held at equal swings? Find the book were it says something there about locking up 10 months after a crash? A few days had to buy a battery for too many variables are in the soup, no?

That was typical you or a typical OP that leaves out they installed an advance unit, but were not up front about all the mods. You sent everyone in a goose chase blaming sensors. I tired to stop you as to explain the unit is still giving out the correct key off signal. No doubt that was told to you in the book but that did not happen in your world is how to read that shop manual. That shows me right there that book is useless in your hands. And man you will be paying for it, fella. No matter what tech you start in at, I'm on the guys that are sort of clueless, need a bookslapsavvyness. Dude, you cannot even tighten a bolt so it stays in place, has to buy a sensor that is more bulletproof than a can of cheeze wiz on a shelf in the heat of the day.

GAS'did I say you come here, you better know your shit better than me or I'll spank you with your own abstract? I'm waiting for the BAZ'man to clean up your popping issue. Go see if he explained why all of a sudden the pop? Did you mention you could not do something to one side or the other? I'm not going to enter that mess. It's all yours. See if BAZ can square away that pop a little cleaner than what direction you are sending that guy in.

"A ball bearing is a type of rolling-element bearing that uses balls to maintain the separation between the bearing races".....uhmmmm.....I think I mentioned this with my 'help' for the fella with the bearing issue.....naturally....I was made fun of....by.....the MASTER TECH

"The issue is someone like you that has to look in the manual"..yep,got that right....when I give suggestions...I'm not just giving my own idea on em if I don't actually KNOW.....aren't YOU the one that pounded on about"look in the manual!!!!""Go by the book"...ya...that was you wasn't it?Now you're dissing someone for using the manual as their starting point?What a tool.Troll....


"Why bring up a bent axle if the OP can slide it in and out?"....can you see a friggin warped rotor by eyeballing it?...Didn't think so...and ya can't see a warped axle by eyeballing it either if yer not actually LOOKING for it.You still haven't answered the questions...as usual...it's your turn....let's hear your take on how an axle might get warped?

THUNDER?

Just wanted you to have a clear decision on the ear chase. The entertainment is more for me as we wait for you to come up with your ticking solution.

Just wanted you to know I didn't look in a book to take a guess about you and a possible exhaust system change to a used bike.

Just wanted you to know, you can take my abstract of the exhaust tick in question, send 4 new gaskets up there and then either continue with this minor tick chasing to a few other variables like the valves. We can run them loose to the spec side. Those seem to run the most quiet. Either that or the pipe leak in question has solved the puzzle?

Just wanted you to chase credibility in you reach out on the net for noise to signal searching. A book can help so much. The peter principal ring a bell?

GAS'd... What is with the bearing photos in a noise thread? A troll does this, no? Sending up troll photos and the like. The thing is, if you want to work that book, you gotta do your homework on the bearings. Go on line to look at the parts blowout, See how it's assembled and what they call it in kawi terms? Answer your own questions.

There is your answer. This is not rocket science, fella. No hand holding here if you wanna urinate with the big bladders. You droppediss!

This aint the first time this guy has spent an entire set of postings about MY incompetence....I said....this this and
this.Look for yourself....at the beginning of this deal here...what did I say?...straightforward....simple.What did HE say?...Grn yer this yer that.....wtf?I offered something(like in the bearing thread)...what'd he do with what I offered....posts about how stupid I am and reasons WHY I shouldn't be listened to...I don't care if ANYONE listens to me.....I know what works and has worked on my bikes.I don't need to start throwing darts at other members for them sharing their ideas.You look...see what it is...I shared what worked for me,or some possible solutions.He shared what a fuckin idiot I am and how I couldn't know anything.He wants you to all know that...while I'm to do what?....defend myself.Fuck him.Don't pay attention to me.I don't care.I'm not trying to be Mr.Tech Master.I'm done.....


The 'relevant stuff' is at the first post.....'my bike is ticking'....and my 'relevant' answer was..."it's normal...they all tick...especially after they warm up and the oil gets more fluid.What's so 'stupid' about that response?Or irrelevant?

Go see if he explained why all of a sudden the pop? Did you mention you could not do something to one side or the other? I'm not going to enter that mess. It's all yours. See if BAZ can square away that pop a little cleaner than what direction you are sending that guy in."....

this is exactly what I'm talking about.A guy posts with an issue...I offer my 'advice'(cause I have virtually the same setup)...and I have a solution...simple as it is...and look what Hub does with it....brings it here and begins dissing it immediately.Starts comparing me with Mr Bazzaz...wtf?.I'm the problem?


"Did you mention you could not do something to one side or the other? ....uhm...yeah...I did....first thing out the box.....where was YOUR 'advice'?Fucknut.Nutjob.


I'm not the only guy here that said..."the noise is normal"...I'm trying to save you(Bluthunder) hundreds of dollars going to get your valves checked when they don't need it.And trying to ease your worry about something being wrong with your engine.The header bolt tightening deal DID NOT correct your 'problem'.I wonder why?There IS no problem...your bike is fine.Take it or leave it....it's your bike...your money.

"Yeah camera was on right side fairing opening, the sound seems to be worse on that side"...hello?...right where all that engine noise can nicely get funneled..through that little opening.Just happens to be where your cam chain is also spinning like a son of a bitch....and I don't mean....cam chain tensioner issues.You don't have a tensioner issue.That would be there at startup,and continue.You'd KNOW what THAT sounds like.

Now...did I need to fill a whole page of dissing someone elses advice?

Bluethunder start with the exhaust gasket as HUB stated that is more than likely what is causing the tick my header bolts got loose on my 2008 and I had a loud tick like in your video tightened them up and no more tick but I have stock header and you stated that it looked to you like there was a full system on there before so start with that and give us an update!

No guy, I'm going to put the stamp of 100% wrong is to say nothing is wrong with the complaint not satisfied. There is a gut feeling there that is not taking a 100% it sounds like my '07 hubmobile kind of you cannot compare snowflakes, fella. This is big guy talk. This is how you need to sit back and wait for the little moves.

You conclude way too soon like a two minute sally up comes the zipper you're done. You wake up everyday is like I said from the beginning; This is one nasty pit. We pits do not accept your, 'it's fine when you never addressed the variable [the tick] that sort of stopped ticking in your diagnosisissisis. And to be honest, about 8'something tonight, I kept on busting up laughing. Couldn't stop. Had a knife in my hand too and I couldn't cut, I was looking down with the tears in the glass is you had to be there.

The exhaust port gaskets: as it stands right now... if you do anything with your engine wrench-wise... Hubs idea (abstract) is the easiest to perform.
And it has merit: loose doughnut gaskets on a V8 sound like collapsed lifters. I know... this isnt a V8... but the operating theory is applicable. And youre sure your gaskets have been disturbed yes?

You are damn straight there are some informed people here. This theory walks. That disturbed exhaust has merit, not it sounds normal. I'll catch up to ya. Tell you what happened. How the OP solved it anshit.

YOU DID jack this thread a second time like a troll, BTW? From bearings to now riding with caps. There is a 'my ride today' kind of thread starter is for that place out in the home page or lobby, I believe? If anything, I'm learning how to troll from the best of them.

You, like anyone else, they need to be on top of your game you deal with tech, young man. Since you play the lame game, pretty much, your diagnosisisis does not count around this neighborhood. When you discuss ticks or bearings, you better make sure you call a bearing what and where it is placed. Gather up all that location and purpose once you describe parts is parts. You fuck up the steps, oh, year going to get it for decades!

If you do not follow the flow of the OP, finds that the OP takes your take on the noise; with a grain of salt like I do. It should tell you something. That is all I am saying. That is now 3 to 1 is the tick is on! Trolling seems to be your type of path. So don't worry on dis end. I'm just the thread's quick her pick her up her. Take care of ladies like yourself, here, let me fix your braids today's [tech] beating.... WEED'uh Bang-Bang out of all those bad-bad-die agggg nose is IS!

If you think about it, you should have noticed I am not all over the place in everyone's posts. There is nothing for me to worry about is just watch you discuss bike tech, when you hand off way too many jobs or neglect them. Then haul butt like I can see that sort of whack job of a service you give to your bike. Try flying a plane with that attitude to THAT machine.

This deal here? This thread is more a 50/50% waiting game. Either those dirt bike gaskets are in stock, or THUNDER had to special odor them. You more or less stunk up the place. "SMOKE'Duh ROOM." I'd like to put you in a little sealed container with the exhaust pipes outside. Then, let you sit there with that tick and let the gas leak slowly fill up the container sort of, odorless, taste dis! zNow, was the tech of the tick dare or not is you being the bird in the coal mine... Tweet-Tweet-TweeeeEeeeeeeeeeee?

I think it's safe to enter dis thread again! LOL!

I am more fucking with you is fuck wit HA tech thread. Look at the top of the subject matter. It says "MAINTENANCE" and buddy, this is not your exper'tease. Yes or no... Have you ever changed fluids on the bikes you've owned? I see a pattern, fella. The way you see it, you never changed the fork fluids? That to me bleeds, maintenance and buttea, you ain't got the key hoon knees to be discussing maintenance. Now, if the subject was, "Neglected Maintenance Mat Tears," I'd be laughing my ass of right about now.

I am more or less telling you that YOU are full of anshit like that there is duh poof. I brought the doo-doo on you, guy. Bring it right back up in your face is face it. You, me, others; know the bike sounds fine. Butt an A-hole like yourself sends the bike out like you take it to the dealer and they hear 'normal' and let it pass. That still left THUNDER out in the rain.

Thus the flame on your ass... You HOLE!

"You, me, others; know the bike sounds fine"...then wtf was with all the "you don't know shit...blah blah blah"...you wasted this guys time throwing BS at me..every one of your posts in this thread is about me and how I don't know nuthin.I don't care if you think I've never worked on my bike.Never had an issue that I didn't fix myself.I leave the valve checks to a guy I know will get it right.So what's the big deal?I know what I feel good about doing...and what I don't...and I don't claim to do something I haven't.Your saying "I haven't this or that" doesn't mean chit.Period.I don't need to fall off a building to know it'll probably kill me.And I don't need to tear my bike apart just to have somethin to do or say "Ya...I got dis".....Anyone have to tell you "hey,ya need to use the brake if ya want to stop yer bike"....I didn't think so.Some things ya just know.Like arguing with you.I'm done arguing with you.Your opening statement above says it all.There was NO REASON for you to write about me....or anything that I previously posted.But there ya went..dragging me into your deal.You got what you wanted...just like ya do on every other forum you've been on....get people angry and then sit back and laugh your arse off...typical troll stuff...47 sites.That's not MY record...that's YOURS.One site for me...this one...7 years.Sorry,but you can't blame me for your own stuff.

I'll change my last comments to you and say...'sorry'...have a nice day.I'm going riding.
