                          • I read a thread talking about S1 engines, went out to the garage and found out that I infact have the dime sized spots on the sides of the head and an S1 is stamped under the #3 intake manifold.
                            Can't get it to run right? Find a trick to add HP?
                            From the first oil change to completely rebuilding the engine,
                            this is the place to talk about the heart of the beast!

                            • I got it up on the center stand for the first time by myself after reading the thread on how to do it properly. I swear I felt so stupid knowing that I teach motorcycle basics but couldn't get the Kat on the center stand. Now I don't have live in shame any more.

                              • Went for a ride tonight felt great even with temp at 20F and 15mph wind. However the wind gusting 25-30mph caught me off guard had to lean the bike over to go straight.
