first official work i did on the cbr today, some major pita's...
fucking hate taking something new apart for the first time cause it takes twice as long as it should, because you are extra careful not to break shit.
well i didn't break shit, i didn't end up with extra parts, and i didn't loose any tools. thats a good day in my book.
had the most trouble getting the front fairing off. once i got the assembly off it took me about 30 minutes to wiggle it around to disconnect the ram air ducts. i probably didn't really have to remove the whole thing to get the job done, but im a tinkerer so it happened anyways.

i thought the same thing. im very pleased. the resistors on them actually sped up the blink speed a little bit which im VERY happy about.

(I can't see the pics right now so disregard if you already have one) can you get a pic with your signals on but off to the side a bit? basicly out of the direct shot of the lights... so I can see just how bright they really are...
My LED's look bright as hell as long as they're aimed at ya... other than that... they suck ass.

Yeah... always give yourself double the time you think you'll need, unless it's something you've done half a dozen times before.

Yea I did my spark plugs a few days ago, 1/2 an hour total,no problem. A kid came over with a '07 R6 and I said FUCK THAT! Have you tried replacing the plugs and is it as big of a pain as it looks? The stealership charged him double the normal rate to change plugs!

Yes and yes.
Here is a quote from my garage thread :lol:
Then it was time to check the spark plugs. Lots of fun... you get to remove the gas tank, airbox, throttle bodies, the works... all to get to the plugs:
