    Rear Sets,

    I consider it a safety related part so I wouldnt skimp on it. On long rides I sometimes stand up to stretch out. It would be a bad day if they broke while on the highway. Just my 2 cents.

    alien head 2 exhaust

    Just an FYI. I have the short meg 2. It's a great exhaust but the fitment is very close to the peg to the point that my heel is resting on the exhaust. It gets very hot. I have had to modify my foot placement to compensate so it's starting to bother me on longer trips. I don't know if this...

    Garmin Zumo 590lm aux/switched live wiring help.

    The fuze block is a good option but it is a bigger investment (block + wire kit = $117 + shipping). If you are only planning 1 or 2 accessories I would probably still go with the smithabusa harness ($27 + shipping) any more than that and I agree with fallenarch. Your GPS wiring harness should...

    Garmin Zumo 590lm aux/switched live wiring help.

    smithabusa makes a wiring harness that plugs into your running lights. No splicing needed. Below is the link to his site. Frankenstein Replacement Bolts I would send him a PM first to make sure he still makes them. I have one and it's great. It gives you additional plugs in the front...

    Need some brake advice

    My understanding is that the next step up from OEM is to use stainless steel brake lines. A step up from that is changing the rotors. I think Pashnit has Galfer SS lines on sale if I'm not mistaken. I have not tried them. They are on my to do list. JPunisher

    Internal 90 Degree Tire Pressure Monitor

    Thanks for the reply. I guess the other option would be to go with 90 degree stems and external monitoring (caps). They just look clunky.

    Internal 90 Degree Tire Pressure Monitor

    I am planning on purchasing new rims for my 08 and I was wondering if anyone knows of an internal tire pressure monitoring system for motorcycles that has 90 degree valve stems? I am looking for something similar to the link below but with 90 degree valve stems...

    Passenger grab bar install plz help

    There used to be a sticky thread on this site with a list of bolt sizes for every bolt on the busa. You could just look for the bolt size you needed and get a replacement at lowes. Can't find it right now. You may have to use the search. The closest I found was the link below but it doesn't...

    Swingarm Bearings Question

    Anyone have experience with All Balls Bearings? I've seen these for $30 vs OEM Suzuki $86. I don't want to skimp if this is going to cause a problem in the long run.

    Swingarm Bearings Question

    Thanks for the heads up. Shouldn't be too hard to remove. Anyone know where I can find a tutorial or video for changing out the swingarm? I wouldn't mind trying it myself if there was a guide out there. I have already tried the search function but no luck.

    Swingarm Bearings Question

    Yes it would be a new arm. Bearings are cheap enough that it makes sense to me to just buy them and avoid headaches removing the old ones and problems down the road. I agree with reusing everything else. I just wasn't sure what could be reused and not. Thanks for help.
