    Still waiting for them to finish doing pads and fluid... getting the rotors resurfaced ate most of the day.

    Next time I have to do brakes... I am buying rotors, and having someone give me a hand.

    I can't stand knowing that I am at home, and if I go out to the driveway, my car isn't there.

    I just went through my annual "I'm sick of the exhaust drone, time for the stock exhaust again" swap.

    Which means I'm about a month away from "I'm sick of this crappy gas mileage, time for the magnaflow again" swap.

    It's not for me, but rather for the wife. '06 105sx. The thing rules.

    Word on the street is that the bikes will get a linkage for 2010 -- the '09 990 enduro already has one.

    I guess we'll wait and see. I'm thinking that my next bike will be a 200 XC after I get bumped into B class (after next season, more than likely).

    I may bite the bullet this winter and get a new RMZ or KXF 450, either that or EXC 450 (for street legal reasons)

    Finally did get it back, with about 5 min to spare, on being late for work..

    When I picked it up it clunked like hell under braking... went out and bedded the brakes in after work, and my clunk has disappeared. Yay for dodging bullets.

    As for today... went to the dealer and explained the oops we made ordering the rear swaybar (got the sti's stocker, rather than the 02/03 WRX rear bar) ... so instead of being stuck with a special order part and out money, im getting the right part and a couple bucks back. sweet!

    just a shame I didn't get it for the RX. oh well.

    Now to go pester Sears about the ratchet that gave up on me in the process...

    ok.. I did front pads and rear pads, then removed my exhaust and modified it to fit better... extended the tail-pipe section to sit it level with the bumper and reduce inside drone...

    Me too!!!
    New DBA (4000, Slotted) and Hawk HPS. I miss the old Ferodo pads though. I am still getting a little noise from the pads moving (either that or endlink/sway), but hope that goes away as break-in continues.

    Gave her a nice bath. It was perfect for it this morning, not blistering hot or overly sunny.

    changed my oil, cut a notch out of the crossmember in the back so my drive shaft stops rubbing on it when I drive in reverse.
