Anyone know of a special tool to get these off besides needle nose pliers and a shitload of effort?  Thanks

Th zip tie will probably be fine...but in case it's not, the bolt hole is stripped out for the tank on my 06 vt600. Would a helicoil be the right fix for this?  also, there's rubber at the bo...

@Kevin mf Jones Not sure where I implied the sisters aspect, me and my homies love matching outfits, especially when accidentally hahaha.

That's good news. I'll be purchasing a fender kit from you. If you have one you recommend. Learning a lot from your videos. Keep em comin!!! 

Yeah man you can definitely run that tire. i wouldnt recommend installing it by hand though , youll need a machine to install it. The automotive tires are very tight and slightly smaller than the 1...

@Smeltie hahaha we're brothers, not sisters. They'll be the close to the same year but that's about it. He likes shiny stuff,  I'm lean more towards rusty shit and choppers

@TJ  I've been catching up on the videos. Fucking awesome content. I'm for sure going jockey shifter, sissy bar.  Shit is badass

Is anyone running an excelsior rear tire?  I got a 5.50x15 for free.  It's an automotive tire. It's a pie crust style. Will it fit? 

Wow I almost F'd up. Ok. Thanks.

@jackson.durfee3 eh. theyre not that hard, but theyre not easy either. theres a lot of videos on those 4 carb banks on youtube so id watcha dozen before deciding what you want to do. if youve never...

@Peter Pacheco its not really 'adjustable' it has a position that it works and other positions... it sucks loltheres absolutely no literature or specs that im aware of for the 600 tps. 

@daniel.hauge08 one more thing, these bikes, the 600's are cold natured beasts so they usually do like to start with choke, especially if you live where its cold! 

@daniel.hauge08 you'll have to be more specific in your question. I can tell you if you gut all that stuff you'll need to install velocity stacks and tune your carburtetors.  you can find all...
