I'll look into it later on, I like the way the pro circuit looks though, I'd prefer pro circuit if I didn't read about so many people with the exhaust cracking, I'll have to look into it. I could see why pros wouldn't care if they crack cause they can probably get a replacement free or cheap as hell lol

Got my new dunlop and stuff, Can't you get spark plug BR9EIX at advance auto for like $6 or anywhere else? My dad bought 2 at cyclegear and said he paid $12 a piece, He said if I can get them for like 6 anywhere else he'll take em back lol. Also I can get my brothers cbr 1000RR for $3500 payments. It has like over 40k miles on it though and been to the drag strip every so often. It's still strong though. Not sure if I should get it or not cause the mileage lol

No fucks given.
Told you Cycle Gear had crackhead prices :lol:.

Take that part number and run it through advance/autozone's website. If anything, it'll save you a trip there.

Just went to adjust the chain and ended up taking the wheel completely off, The left adjusting screw the threads are effed up on half the screw had to hammer the wrench over and over to get it out. I hope the swingarm threads aren't messed up!? And my wheel bearings are crap so going to get wheel bearings and a new left side adjuster screw/nut and hope that's all it needs.

Edit: So can anyone explain what wheel spacers are on a dirtbike wheel? I was going to order a All Balls Rear Wheel Bearing Kit and some Bolt Chain Adjuster Bolts on motosport.com and was reading I should replace the rear wheel spacers when I do the bearings?

Wheel spacers, You can replace them if you want to they're not very high, If they appear smooth or undamaged there's no real benefit.

I was gonna prep the swingarm for painting today but it's raining... :thumbdown
Spent more money in parts on my dirtbike already than I've spent on my car in along long time. Just order 6 quarts of amsoil dominator, 5 ngk BR9EIX spark plugs (7 bucks a piece) Taking the 2 my dad got back to cycle gear, All balls wheel bearing kit, All balls wheel spacer kit (just because), New "Bolt" Chain adjuster bolts, and the dunlop MX51 tire. Totaling $250 spent. Next to get is some air filter cleaner and oil, and eventually a exhaust pipe and new rear tire
