Wow, wish I had checked. Think I paid $92 for front and $55 for rear (both with prime shipping).Motosport.com does buy one get one free galfers from time to time, you get the rear for free when you buy the front. Keep an eye out for that.
I cleaned my fuel strainer on my GSXR Sunday, made a HUGE difference in throttle response.

Rub it in why don't ya! I love the steel lines, stopping isn't a problem anymore. Stopping too fast maybe a problem. Though. LOLI paid $88 for front and rear on the gixxer!
Can I ask how / what you did with the original tube. Did you leave it where it was cut off, or did you cut more of it off? Also how wide is the new hole? Finally, do you get a ton of low end "drone"? I just did mine yesterday and get really bad ringing in my ear from it lol.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFx3cFiecVk&feature=youtu.be
So I ended up using something called "SteelStick" by JB Weld, which was more of a putty than anything else, and is holding the tip on. I'm going to ride with that for now until it falls off or something. Love the new sound, and when I can afford it, a full exhaust is in the works.

Ran it threw car wash for deep cleanReplaced the air filter, spark plugs, and changed the oil for the 24,000 mile service. Still need to change the coolant, and brake lines, but that can wait until after pay day.
After removing the airbox I noticed dirt around the intake seals, and what looked like oil where the intake flange seats into the seal. I thought I remember reading on here that because it is a ***** to get to the screws to tighten the clamps on the seals down to leave them a little loose, and just push the airbox on. I've done this since I first changed the plugs at 8,000 miles. I figure it's also why I'm seeing dirt and oil around the seals.
So, I decided to properly tighten the clamps this time. The outer two clamps are easy enough to get to. I saw that I could get a screwdriver to the other two, but I don't have metric hex bits. I found that a T-25 Torx bit is the same size as the 4mm hex, and used that instead. The middle right one was the hardest to get to because of some bracket crap in front of it.
I also bought a set of 3" screwdriver bits from harbor freight, and a set 3/8 drive long metric hex bits. Here's a link to the screwdriver set I bought; it was $10.

Our high today in the SF Bay will be 57 degrees at 11:59pm tonight, we've got a storm rolling in. We don't really have a warm climate, just mild year round.Last ride for me was some time in October, but weather here in PA has been getting nice (66 and sunny) so I took my baby for a ride and topped her off with some premium gas since the gas has been sitting for months. Man did I miss riding! Jealous of you people that live in warm climates year round.
I've given this some thought, and if I ever do it, I'll go with black colored SS (if it's offered), or plain SS if it's not.Looks good! I know this post is from November, but I just saw it. I did Galfer stainless steel brake lines front and rear at the end of the summer and new pads and fluid. Brakes stop on a dime with no fade now. Wish I had gotten red lines like yours, but I like the plain stainless look too.

It's just super hard to route colored lines and have them not detract from the lines of the bike. Accent colors are easy to over do.
