And I thought my engine was whiney!

When I rode a K75 I was asked a few times if it had a blower.All the old K's whine (and smoke if you leave them on the sidestand when the motor is hot!).

Thanks guys.
Some of the issue is my phone micro not liking the noise.
Its a bit deeper with the db killer out also.

Got the speedo and wheel sensor mounted up. I guess I am supposed to Glue the magnets into the hex holes. That will mean waiting until after wheels are powder coated. I guess I will need sort that out this weekend.

Glueing the magnet in to the hex hole is about the only solution I could come up with too I also thought about drilling/tapping a new hole and screwing in a hex head just for the magnet. There is a bit of room behind the disc if it needed a thin nut for extra security. I've seen a bracket bolted to a disc bolt but it looked somewhat "agricultural"
I'm glad your one sounds whiney too, I thought it might've just been mine
I may stay home this weekend and do some more to mine.... but then again ...

I might drill a hole in the hex head on both sides like you would for a lock wire. Then put a split pin through it and set the magnet into chemset. The split pin will stop it working its way out again.

I took the wheels off today and will take them to the powder coaters tomorrow.

Going for a Saturn gloss black.



Made my own bead breaker as the bike shop was closed when finished work.

Nice simple bead breaker.

That's no way to treat a drill bit though!
