    Shinko Tire Information

    To me it looks like a sporty radial tire. and that is one of the reasons I like it so much.

    Shinko Tire Information

    Damn! $146 with shipping for both? Just replaced my Avon AM42 with the same and it cost $149 for just the one tire (bought locally). I got 14,183 miles out of the old one. Damn good considering how I ride and it remained sticky throughout its life. I only got 6000 miles on the factory Dunlop and...

    Removing rear bearings.

    I used a heat gun when I removed that bearing to expand the surrounding area and it came out after about 10 pulls on the blind bearing puller. Highly recommend getting a heat gun if doing such work.

    Rear Axle assembly

    This is typically only needed when you are running a 170mm rear tire, and sometimes not even then. Move the washer to the right side between the brake mount bracket and the swing arm (feel free to correct me anyone, as I am not looking at the bike right now), tighten everything up, and see if...

    It's baaaack!!

    The scoops and side covers look polished, not chrome. The miles really aren't that bad, as long as the bike was well maintained. The clutch line that is way too short makes me think that the person doesn't care about the bike that much. If they did they would have corrected that very obvious...

    Pitting on wheels

    They seem fine, but haven't had a chance to ride the bike yet though.

    Pic of 2007 Damper Rod

    How do you re-install the bolt to the damper rod for the late model forks? A video would be great for the disassembly / reassembly of both late and early model forks.

    Pitting on wheels

    Here is the color. The first pic of the grab rail is a little off as the flash makes the color look lighter than it actually is. This is a very dark grey and looks black at night. Sorry I left my grubby greasy fingerprints on it before I took my pic, but I just installed the bearings and seals...

    scoobyvan info

    You can pick up a coolant temp sender for a 1988 Nissan Sentra from any parts houses, and it probably would be cheaper than that. I believe that I have seen that tailight in person and its not terribly bright. For $75 the motorcycle mods tailight is hard to beat http://www.motorcyclemods.com/

    Non-OEM Headlight Units

    You can, but it provides alot more light when you use a relay kit like the one you can find here; http://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Products/H4_Kits/h4_kits.html

    Brake Rotor Bolts - stripped the hex head

    Yeah, these bolts Suck! I got all of mine except for one, but they all got marrred when removing them. Anyone know of an aftermarket, or stronger alternative to the factory bolts that I can use?

    Pitting on wheels

    I'm getting my wheels ready to be sent to a local powdercoaters for a gunmetal metallic type coating and they are only asking $60 a wheel including the clear coat. I had them do the grab rail just so I could see the color and the quality. Looks good! Its alot cheaper than chrome and they have...

    buying stuff

    What are they selling, how much are they asking, how much do you think it is worth, and do you want it?

    Stainless Steel Oil Filters

    For $100 I really don't see an advantage to straying from the tried and true paper filters. Besides an oil filter is probably not something that you want to 'experiment' with.

    Opinions on air compressors

    Well, I picked up the 26gal one today, but had to use a 2x4 to raise the shelf it sits under to create enough clearance. Temp fix for now, will do something different once it gets warmer. So far I like it. Not really that loud IMO, and with the wheels it has makes it easy to move around. The...

    Opinions on air compressors

    I have finally decided that I need one and am looking for experienced opinions on two I found at Sears. I have never owned one or seriously looked into buying one. I am just going to use it for simple garage tasks, but will be looking for it to drive a 3/8 impact gun for the occasional tire...
