Hey Eck, Can you believe this !!!!! Hey Rich, Look here my friend, if your not interested in attending a meet & eat you really do not have to go through all this to be excused... I mean, hey, Anyone here would be willing to accept the "I cant make it because"..blah, blah, blah..!! There is no need for you to have broken bones, stiches, bruises, and all that stuff to get out of a VR.Org meet & eat.. From here on out, I would highly recomend you use your truck if you do decide to attend one.. All in all...I am certainly happy you are able to write us and tell us of your reasons for not being able to attend a meet & eat in the near future.... I wish you well and hope you find the road to a speedy recovery...!!

Kilopascal (kPa) .....Defined as pressure of 0.0102 kg / sq. cm Kilogram (kg) One thousand grams. kilopascal; A pascal is a pressure of one newton per square metre; this unit is inconveniently small for many purposes, and the kilopascal (kPa) of 1,000 newtons per square metre is more commonly used in engineering work. (For comparison, one pound per square inch equals 6.895 kPa.)

You can place a 6 inch long piece of 2x4 under the kick stand and it will be good enough to change the oil and to check the oil level in the sight glass.... If you want to get it even closer to being level.. add a piece of 3/16th" plywood on top of the 2 x 4....

I found that I use the front brakes only when coming to a stop on my 05 RSV for the same reason... rear brake pads just seem to melt away if you use them on these things.. I will use the rear brake only while sitting at a red light or stop sign if I need to hold the brakes on due to being on a hill of anykind.. As mentioned, the inside pad wears down super fast compared to the outer brake pad.. Just keep your eye on them both, and when the inside pad wears down a little more than half way, just take them out and rotate them around..place the outside pad on the inside and the inside pad to the outside and you just now doubled the life span of your brake pads..

Some of my first thoughts would be to look at: Are the front tubes possibly bent (just a little bit), from the bike being dropped,or possibly wrecked at one time? Are both front tubes "even" in thier length..meaning... (one may be lower than the other through the tripple tree to front wheel axle) Does the front wheel look straight up and down..(looking from 12 oclock to 6 oclock). In other words does it run on a "minor" slant ( / ) or ( \ ) minor angle.. The front wheel may be at minor tilt or slant causeing the slight pulling effect. Ok, some more thouhgts coming in out of curiosity... Is the rear axle locking bolt tight on right side of bike Is the (left hand side) large rear axle nut tight? Are the (4) acorn nuts loose on the drive shaft housing Do you see any wear marks on the inside of the drive shaft housing where the rear tire is so close that it almost rubs (Standing on left hand side of bike but looking at the right hand side of shaft housing) Other thoughts that may not have anything to do with it, but for my own curiosity.. Does your bike by chance have a whine... Does the rear wheel grind or click when motor is off and you hand push it on pavement or the garage floor forward or backwards..?
