Re: Thinkin of a paint job

Sweet. You can never have too much citrus. Although I like to think of it as acid green, it just sounds better.

Re: Decisions..Decisions, Need Advice!!

Personally I would take the K without a second thought, then proceed to laugh manically for a month or so.

Re: Brakes

If I remember correctly, I started going east instead of west on I-90 and when I got to I-35 I turned north instead of south. That about sums up all the planning I have done on my life so far.

Brakes

My bike has about 5400 miles on it and the front brakes have been squealing (a little at first, now getting worse) for about 1400 of those. I am the third owner so I cannot speak to how the bike was ridden before I got it, but 5k seems like a very short life span for pads. Before I replace the pads ...

The Loc-tite is a great idea I always worry about vibes loosening anything on the bike. My standard solution involves nylock nuts, but there is no way to connect them to the tail.

Luggage Hanger

I just got some luggage mounts and can not bring my self to pay another 40$ for the OEM machine screws to mount them. I was told that the mounts use a 6mm screw, but I noticed that the front and rear are different sizes. Does anyone know the screw sizes?

Thanks
