I just put 90 miles on today pretty much everything you stated is just as mine is, except mine uses ALOT of oil. I pull up to a stop sign and the blue haze catches up a few seconds later. My speedo goes wacky when I go form high to low beam sometimes.

The USI ski's make a HUGE diff. I noticed the exhaust is pretty throaty, sounds quite nice in stock form, I was never really impressed with the note of the F7 with a stock can (not talking about loudness, I am talking about the note) In my opinion anyone who bought Std 07 F series is not even getting 10% of this chassis's benefits.
I am noticing that the belt is slipping on take off, hopefully a shim change will cure that.

BTW, Labonte did you eat fish friday night at the Cayuga Inn ?

Flash - no, we didn't eat at the Cayuga. We were going to initially, but decided to head back to Namakagon and ate pizza at the Loon instead. Were you there? I can't remember if it was Thursday or Friday, but there was another F8 there (LXR I believe because it had the funky windshield).

Your mention of the belt/clutch setup reminds me. I need to add a shim to mine to get the deflection back to where it should be.[/b]
No I wasn't there, if I was you would have known it, Santa brought me a HCS hat this year with my name across the back. I just remember your earlier post you mentioned Cuyuga and I ate there this fall. I stayed just up the road at Wildwood Haven.
Fish is great at the Inn, I had the perch.
