Cheap Hairspray (has to be alcohol based). If the grips are a hair to big, quality masking tape + hair spray and a heat gun. Learned a lot back in my bicycling days. I had an old guy show me how to use motor oil to do it and they STICK.


Got my wheel in and mounted the tire tonight.

Yeah, me too. "Silky" from TR had one, said it was baddass.

I think it has a 9500rpm limit... which is a good thing.

Wish I had the cash for one. 47mph is enough me though. If I get ANY moving violation in the next 16 months, I lose my license for 6 months.

So if it actually advances the timing... shouldn't that mean a higher octane fuel would be beneficial?
