Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

These pics are a bit old, but it basically looks like this. Just with cleaned up wiring and the brake lights actually working. Drilled out a lot of the muffler which freed up enough airflow that it was obvious the engine was running lean. Right hand cluster is in and lights are all wired up, but the left brake lever thingy is weird and takes up all the space so the left hand button cluster can't go in until my motorcycle levers arrive. (Also ordered new mirrors.) Other than that I haven't done much other than sliding around in the snow. Also I got my license last month so now it's actually legal for me to ride it, which is a plus.

Top speed (With the help of a slight incline) is about 50. It keeps up with traffic decently.

I just use the "Insert other media" button down in the right. Still actually prefer to use normal gif over gifv. Gifv's seems to be borked on my phone, at least.

Edit: If it doesn't work to just grad over for you. Try highlighting the field first, then move the media over to it.

Still doesn't work with some Imgur links. (Which are mostly gifv's...)

Testing, testing.

Edit: Seems to me that the gifv format is iffy on this forum, where as gif works just fine.

Edit2: You can easily remove the V from gifv and then it becomes a normal gif.

Front Brake Upgrade won't fit with my rims -.-*
Don't know weather use spacer's to clear it or just buy new rims...
Excuse the quality of the picture.

I'd say spacers would probably help out a good bit
