    Preventing the dreaded second gear problem

    Mine was going out and is pretty much gone on my 1997 model. I can downshift to second no problem, but upshifting from 1st to 2nd can only be done with a light throttle. As soon as I twist that throttle, it jumps out. I just bypass second gear when I am getting on it, winding out 1st more than...

    Ultrasonic Cleaning Solution

    There are several I use depending on what you want to clean and what the material is. For general light cleaning of motorcycle fasteners and parts, I use bulk WD-40. Picked up a few gallons from a place closing down. I have one gallon that gets reused after the sludge settles and the WD-40 gets...
