Riding this weekend

Just wondering if any "Mountain Meng'ers" are riding this weekend? (7/31/04) Trying meet up with some fellow R1'ers and I think the wife is letting me have the weekend to break in the ride better :D I thought somone else lived in Highlands Ranch........?

:hellobye I might be out on Sunday but definitely not on Saturday. I'm in Littleton and there are a few HR peeps here.

Wolf, I can ride either day. I am still breaking in the bike so putting miles on it is a good thing. If you want to meet up for ride on Sunday let me know. Almost any time will work.

Sorry bro...things didn't work out for me and riding this weekend. :( But I will be at SCR all day tomorrow and Thursday night, hopefully that is. My luck lately with riding and track time just plain sucks. :cryin

Thats cool Wolf. I had the bike at the shop on Saturday and then the road for a bit, BUT I found a problem and would not have gotten to ride anyway on sunday. Needless to say I am real unhappy!! I noticed when I got the bike home there was radiator fluid on the ground??? Not much, a few drops is all. I could not figure it out so I check the fluid level and it was ok? I only had the dealer adjust the throttle and I figured while they had it do a quick oil change seeing how they could fit me in....? I decided to pull off all of the fairings and sure enough I find the radiator hose next to the oil filter had a small pin hole? ***** was I p*ssed! I mean it is REAL small but if you wiggle the hose right it will spit out fulid. I could not "say" it was the dealer OR when Yamaha put it on orignally? It's is a strange location. Its at the bottem end were the hose connects before going into the engine. The "Pin" hole is right at the end of the were the metal pipe connector ends and the hose begins. Based on its location it made me wonder if it happend when Yamaha put the hose on? They may have wiggled it to hard because it is really really small and I have seen it happend before trying to put the hose on to tight. I ended up riding around the block and let the bike get to full temp and put some pressure on the it. So far it appeared to hold and no leakage "Yet" but I still think i will replace it to be safe. I will try and make it out to the track if I can get the hose in time. If not maybe until this weekend. I post some an update if I can make it or not.

Oh that sucks...good luck getting it replaced. Either way it should be under warranty...if this were a two to three year old bike I could see why they wouldn't but obviously that's not the case.
