you can get the 0 degree clip ons from http://www.freestyleingenuity.com.

i say learn brake, throttle and clutch control w/ stock gears and then get a bigger sprocket. it will help you tramendously. i have seen plenty of people throw a big sprocket on a bike they just got and the result is never good. you dont "need" a big a$$ pizza sprocket either. i usually only go 5 to 7 up on the rear and leave the front stock.

no need for the new oil pick up. just over fill it. GSXR oil pick up is in the front but most other bikes have the pick up in the rear.

thanks everyone for your help, everything is making sense to me now, as far as why and what i need and why, except for one thing, the moose clutch lever. what advantage exactly does it have besides making it easier to pull it?

It's for when you wanna use the brake and the clutch at the same time. Without an EZpull lever it's almost impossible because you are only using one finger each. That's what I do anyways. If your just starting you probably don't need it until you get a handbrake.

id still say its a smart thing to get...when i started learning wheelies i was pulling the clutch in with 2 fingers and had 2 fingers around the clip-on. When i switched to pulling the clutch in with 1 finger and 3 fingers around the clip-on, for some reason it made everything easier...cant really explain it but it felt 10X better...

Im confused again, sorry about all the damn questions but there is no one in japan to show me or tell me so i gotta ask yall. The clutch lever makes it way easier to pull it with one finger, Is this so at the same time you can use the other hand on the break easily also. And the hand break, is that usually just an improved upgraded, front break or is it something extra, and how does it benefit? my apologies for the retard questions but your my only hope to get this shit right. thanks!

A hand brake is a back brake on your left hand side next to your clutch. You have to do it custom made by using a front brake lever flipped upside down and run another caliper on your back wheel or buy a www.fullthrottleinc.net rear master to go with the brake lever and your stock caliper. The easy pull clutch lever is if you want to use your handbrake at the same time on your left hand side.

shit i have it b/c it makes pulling the clutch a lot easier.

you won't need a hb for a while, learn throttle control. ppl use them when they're doing off-peg stuff, like tank wheelies and shit.

As far as the 1/2 quart over. Would you guys suggest that on a 600rr too or does it matter
