I stopped in a gas station today and was about to put fuel in, when a guy appeared and said I had to take off my helmet. I asked if a Muslim woman had to remove her veil to get petrol here. He said the worst thing to me, that it was ok for them as it was their 'right' to not take it off...

It's coming up to election time and is now reminding "African Americans" why they voted for him the first time, because he's African American (or should that be British American ??) How can someone be African American. Surely you're one or the other, not both? It's like being Black White ? Not...

I would suggest trying to either remove the pads (which may be difficult if the pistons are seized) or remove the caliper. No need to disconnect the brake pipe. Just make sure the caliper isn't hanging on it. You'll know when you spin the wheel if this is the problem.

The tightness of the axle nut shouldn't make a difference, unless the wheel and its spindle and spacer have been put on wrong or the wheel bearings are worn out. Could also be a seized rear brake caliper. What size rear did you have fitted? If too wide on a standard swingarm, the tyre could be...

If there is a rush of air when you remove the cap, the tank breather is blocked and creating a vacuum as the pump draws fuel. Also the engine normally needs the smallest amount of choke unless the weather is VERY cold.

Hi. My first post, so greetings one and all. You Americans are so lucky. Over here in the UK, criminals have more rights than the victims. So any form of self defence is seen as an infringment of the criminals civil liberties. God, I hate Britain :(
