    I have a lot of tools actually. I just need a few things so I can organize them better like a rolling tool tray, and a bigger tool box. I am getting different tools, better tools. :cool:

    What's the problem. I can just use a box wrench with a allen T-wrench. Am I missing something?

    No Charlie your right, I've done it for years like that. Adjusting the clutch is a simple process, much simpler than building a motor for sure.

    Ok.

    It is amazing how easy the job is when you have a tool that you trust and works. ;)

    You have to be really careful not to over tighten, that throwout bearing is the weak link
    and it will burn out in no time if you set it wrong, generally you loose the clutch setting you had because it changes the distance, just enough to screw it up then it sends bearing shards throughout the trans, so be careful with it.

    Yep tools is good, got my share but BP and ProDrag make us look like noob's

    Just ordered another gun, gamo air rifle..

    Yep seen other guys do that, not good.

    BP probably has a shop full of Snap- On tools. :)

    Would like to see your new rifle when you get it in. Did you get the scope with it.

    Same here, except I use a flat blade screwdriver instead of an allen wrench.

    Well here I sit at the dealership waiting for the new tire and warranty on the front rotors. Getting Ride On installed on the front tire as well as new brakes. Think I will walk down the street and go to the gun shop and look to see if they carry air rifles like your getting.

    Put the Ride On in both tires yesterday. I had to Internet but it since no one here stocks it. Took a 20 mile ride, just back. First ride since surgery. Would have gone further but my ankle hurts with my boot on it. Felt good to be out anyway.

    Now that I have the clutch adjusted I have my dyno appointment tenatively set. We are set for the week of Memorial Day. I have been going back and forth if I should change the coil from a stock dual fire to a single fire? Actually, I know the answer to that, I most likely will.

    Your stock TC coil is single fire....unless you went out and traded that Yamakawazuki for an Evo:D

    How's the ride on working for you. Had it put in my front tire today. No vibration at all.

    Since I did both tires at the same time it was crazy the first mile but everything smoothed out and worked great. Thanks for the recommendation. Like I said I use to use a product called ACP no longer available. I swear this is the same stuff smells, looks and tastes the same.
