    I have been reading that these can significantly help in eliminating inside ski lift. Does anybody have a manufacturer or link to help me out in finding some of these? Do these have any effect on slide wear?

    Well, I need some help diagnosing here. I'll tell you what the sled is doing, and they'll I'll tell you what it's not.

    00 VMAX question

    For those of you in the 2 stroke know, figured I'd post here as I'm not registered on the "other side of the fence". If installing a 4" riser block on the handlebars, will I need cable extensions for the idle/throttle etc? Is it tough to do? Thanks in advance.

    Oil light on??

    This past weekend my oil light went on. Then it would go off. Then it would go on. Oil was changed only 500 miles ago. Dipstick says that level is good, if not a hair down to the low side, but still.... Why is the sensor telling me that I'm THAT low????? Thanks for any input.

    Gutting exhaust and running rich

    Just an FYI to all the guys that gutted their exhaust. Because of the lack of back pressure, now granted this is probably going to vary according to where you ride, there is an issue with running way too rich. Since gutting it, I've gone through two sets of plugs. Last year, none. I took...
