Yellow too fast for you, huh? 
That's the problem with running a business, but at least you know the boss well. 
Have you looked at selling your CCT's to the VFR crowd? From this thread it really looks like yours might work as is: http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/i...howtopic=47958
and I know of a couple VFR riders who are looking for manual tensioners.

Yes Ive got the fox shock extended quite a bit now. On my monster I dropped the front an inch and raised the rear almost 2 inches. I love good turn in and im not bothered by twitchy feeling.

Seeing that last pic puts it intro perspective with you sitting on it. Still kind of looks like it would kill my nadzz once the feet are perched up. Hell with it though. Just ride with a cup and bicycle shorts and I'd be alright heh. Lookin good!

She's 21 BTW... and I'm fairly sure the fastest guys here would be hard pressed to keep pace with her, with or without wear on the sliders...
I'm definitely no match on a track... No matter what bike...

Ok, Im not trying to get off the beautiful Swedish girl topic, BUT
I need some clutch plates. 4 or so of mine are broken.
I want to seal up my cases for good, but cant untill I have these clutch friction plates.
Anyone have any, ANYONE AT ALL?
Thanks people

ALRIGHT BIG NEWS
As im laying in bed last night thinking about the bike, I never can fall asleep when I need to, I made a big decision.
I love the Carbon Fiber Monoque body idea, but for now it has to go On hold.
Ill still be doing it eventually, But The sooner I can ride the bike the better.
That being said Ill fabricate a tail and seat out of aluminum. Should still be pretty trick right?

Looking at the first pic of the thread I presume you've not had the motor running. And wasn't the clutch cover holed? indicating it slid down the road. Did that damage any of the plates inside?

Well when I got the bike the entire clutch assembly was out of it and in a box. The pressure plate and basket look fine. Looks like someone tried to install the pressure plate without properly lining up the friction plates.
