Oh I'm grinding them all right.  I guess I'm new at this, because my other bike doesn't grind like that (at least not anytime I've leaned her over), but when this Drifter does it it scares the crap out a me.

 lol  you don't like that noise......lol......it does wake people up when you drop it into the corner and scrap the nuts along the ground. I put stainless steel acorn nuts on mine and they spark some nice when you grind them hard, and people behind back off to.......lol......never heard of anyone wanting to make it quiet......so now a new project to work on.

Wow I really don't like it when you lean a little bit too much in the footboards grind!  And those acorn nuts, when they hit the pavement they sound horrible. :o. Has anybody tried putting something on the outside lower part of their floorboards so that when that hits it doesn't make that horrible grind?  I'm thinking about it, and I'm wondering if there is something like I don't know phenolic or rubber, something semi hard that you could put down there for a wear piece.
