I was planning on replacing my stock turn-signal bulbs with LED, I am re thinking the whole thing now, and here's why. 1, for some reason I had to swap the lead wires in the headlight housing, even though from a different source the LED seemed to operate properly. I don't want to start switching...

Radial engines....much better sound than "Karma Chameleon"! Especially on start up!

I'll check that out on ebay. Thanks for doing the testing. Not quite ready for winter yet, but I will be doing more working than riding very soon. Talk to you later...

Wow, now that is tiny. I really like picture #2. I wonder how weather resistant (washing) it is.

I do like jkyle187 meter and the job he did, first class. I have also thought of (bear with me) disassembling a Kuryakyn meter and using only 10, 12, and 14v LEDs and mounting them closely together in the dummy indicator blank. Then remote mount the rest of the meter assy. with just small wires...

My opinion and experiance with the Kuryakyn meters: They are way too bright. I have one on my DRZ400s (which alerted me to a bad alternator, now replaced). It is mounted under the speedo assy. I had to cover all the LED's except for the 14v green one with black electrical tape, and at night I...

Sorry so long to answer; mine needed a lot of sanding to smooth out; $200 ....each! but sure look great now

This is a scam period. Why email back and forth with this guy? Even 'if' legit, why hassle with this guy? The bike will sell face to face without the B.S. If it could be a bad deal, don't chance it. But I know people who have lost out on this very same thing. I can tell details about it if need...

I made my first ride with newly powder coated wheels, tires, bearings. Also replaced clutch, and brake fluids. It was about 150 miles. I knew I needed fuel before leaving but was sure a gas station would be on the route.(I don't go through here much). I (we, wife and I) went close to a town and...

i just went through this same thing, almost. My bolt heads almost stripped but somehow came out. I did notice they were way too soft. They were also rusty. So what did I do? Install nice new stainless? No, I ordered and installed OEM bolts (18 total). They were not cheap either. This was for my...

Update on my wheels: They are back from powder coating and have new tires on. The rubber dampeners survived fine. I just had to plead with the paint shop to go ahead and do the job with the rubber in there. I have my front wheel bearings in. Going to work on the rear tomorrow. Thanks for the...

What if one of those flags came unstapled from its pole and covered a car windshield or a motorcyclist face? That's what I would have been afraid of. That's a law suit waiting to happen, he's been lucky.

And one more thing to add, my brother-in-law had a M/C wreck directly caused by low tire pressure. It was loaded down (Victory) and tire got hot and blew out. He spent some hospital time with that deal, just last summer. I posted the pictures here on this site. I should get him some of those...

While on the subject, I would like to add that in my experience the rubber 'straight' automotive type valve stem is a poor choice for M/C's because of the tight space to the hub, disc brake etc people tend to try and bend the valve a little to get the gauge on. Over time the stem can start to...

Yep, I took care of it. Stripping wheel getting ready to powder coat, thanks, big help

Snap ring....I am going out to the garage to take care of that right now, thanks a lot!

I am having problems seeing how the rubber mounted rear wheel hub comes off. I am stripping the wheels to have them powder coated. I thought the hub just pulled straight up off the 5 rubber cylinders in the wheel.:ummm: The service manual just shows pictures and I am still not sure. Also while I...

I installed my Tyga front and rear carbon fiber fenders. Rear was a pain 'cause the nut plate did not fit real right. A little grinding and dab of RTV to hold them in place it all went together. The finish is great, I could not be more satisfied. The price was good. I ordered them last Sunday...

Also, who the hell is working for a living in this bunch. The way they travel around...are they on the taxpayers dime? Don't get me started; oh never mind I already am!

Unlike the PGR's I am glad the man is gone. I am glad the Patriot Guard was formed and exist. The 'reverend' caused a lot of pain to families who already had too much pain. If the WBC goes away, we will know it only existed because of the fear his members had and loyal stupidity. How there was...
