The stock battery is rated at 350 CCA, but that's cold cranking amps. Presumably you're not racing in freezing conditions, so you could probably get away with a little less CCA if you're only starting it in warm temps. Lithiums (LiFePO4) are perfect for that because they have high warm temp...

Then probably dry. My 998 is dry while my 990 is Loctited.

You should also check whether the torque spec is dry or greased, as greased results in much more transmitted torque than the setting on your wrench. Also make sure the threads of the nut and shaft are clean and rust-free.

Probably one of these tall mowers that hit the wing:

Not just that, but you never know what torque you're getting from an impact gun. Too loose is obviously bad, but too tight can also be. There's an SXV owner on ApriliaForum whose flywheel kept going out of time. He swore up and down that he torqued it properly to spec, until the 3rd time he...

Probably because they're both the same motor. Both Testastrettas, just 937 vs 998 CC.

I don't remember having to do that, but I joined a few years ago. I only really made it out to one event, which was a pretty good turnout. But I'm sure glad I decided to wash my 998 before going, because everyone else's bikes were pristine.

The person who made the one pictured also owns an 701SM and originally tried to use that tank but couldn’t get it to clear the shock.

19 before, 16 after.

LOL. Earl Shaw sure is a hypocrite. You can clearly see 3 bikes down in the video. Only question is if the guy who started it all came down from a wheelie or not.

My KTM

It eventually needs to be a custom under-seat design to replace and double as the rear subframe with clearance for the shock, but I looked on Amazon and didn't realize how cheap standard cylindrical tanks are, so I might just grab one of those for now and use it while I mock up the new bodywork...

Any recommendations for someone who can design and fabricate an aluminum fuel tank from scratch for a project?

I liked that setup so much, I recently bought this one when it was on sale - basically an industrial version with greater range. I like how I only need enough space to store a single handle and the multiple bits (out of the case, of course). https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0761VFVWY

Never had a tip fall out when properly secured with the set screws. I only have experience with my Lisle set, though.

If you go here, I highly recommend the braised beef short rib empanadas.

This particular one also happened to be the only set I could find locally (long before I started using Amazon) that would open wide enough to remove the Ducati single sided swingarm's eccentric circlip.

You mean snap ring pliers? You can get individual ones pretty cheap at Princess Auto (and probably Amazon), but I spent the extra to get the Lisle bidirectional with replaceable tips when they were on sale: I also got this set of bearing/bushing press kit and highly recommend, especially at...

Hope that works for you (it should for a simple scenario). I bought the exact same one, and had to return it because it wouldn't work for my job.
