+1 Reg. I met Jake at a bike night down in San Jose about ten years ago (Miguel's teammate at the time), as well as Nicky who was racing the VTR...
My question is about the other 'end' of the engagement range; but you may have answered already. If there is 'a lot of play' in the clutch lever,...
Freakin' gorgeous! Hell, just the body bits are worth a grand or more. :cool:

Now that's a seller that really doesn't want to sell... :cool:
Sorry about the mess; but please tell us that bitch isn't going to get away with it.
Hmmm... the attachment links don't work (the pics should just appear in the post). The Kerker system was very popular on these bikes. If it has...
Any chance you'll let us in on what this 'project bike' might be? :cool:
You haven't mentioned how many miles are on the bike, how many sets of tires you've used up, or whether this problem is 'new' or not. I share the...
Care to post your location (just add it to your profile so it shows up in your posts)? :cool:
