    I think i'm picking up an old 99 zx-6r race bike, it would be interesting to see what it does. Also what is the cost?

    Since it says anything on two wheels i'm guessing no, lol. I don't think they have one so i'm guessing they are getting one of those trailer dynojets.

    Cool, its always fun to watch the big bikes. I'm going down there tonight to get some tires changed, i'll try to remember to ask about some details. I picked up that 99 6r track bike, i think they guy said it did something like 96 hp, maybe i'll have to see how close to that it is these days.

    81 Yamaha Virago. I'm having a few problems. Electrical issues, and running issues. It's damn frustrating to say the least. I've had some help from people who've been working on bikes a for a long time. It's just a trial an error process.

    Hmmmm, I may do that. I hate to spend too much money getting it running becuase it was supposed to be a budget build. But hey, if I can't get it running I guess my cheap ass will have to pay someone.

    Yeah, something like that could turn into a lot of money in labor trying to track down the problem. Best thing to do is what you were, get a manual and rule out the problem one part at a time.

    If you do take it in agree on a max price and get in writing. My roomate from college took in his SV to a shop in MN with "electrical" problems, $700 in labor later and his bike is finally running like it should.

    Specifically what kind of problems are you having?

    Downside of electrical problems is you'll never know what's up with it and it could take a long time to fix.

    I agree getting a max price(but most good shops do this anyways and then recommend from there). Most of our electrical issues are time and material. No sense spending $300 and then telling them to stop when the issue hasn't been sorted out yet.
