Two money saving tips 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Two big tips I got off the clinic that saved me a good deal of money and time was the replacement gaskets for the exhaust:

Exhaust header gasket, for the front pipe. Use either Yamaha part#: 3EG-14613-00-00, ($3 to $6ea), or AutoZone part#: Fel-Pro 23588, (less than $1.50ea).

And the gasket material:

I used red Permatex gasket material and it worked like a champ!

Silly me is heading to Harbor Freight to buy a air driven motorcycle jack stand right now....lol.

Thank you very much everybody for all the help and tips!!

I could not agree more!

This site has saved me tons of $$ and time and, I believe, makes me a better rider with all the experience being shared.

Heck, I think my hair is starting to grow back in since joining!!

This site IS AMAZING!
