    brake disc bolts snapped advise

    Aren't stainless weaker than the stock bolts? What would be the shear factor difference? I bought some when I converted almost every bolt/nut/washer to stainless when I redid everything on the bike. Decided to keep the originals for possible safety reasons. Did have to replace several that broke...

    89 on Ebay

    Their view on that is allow a week to give the buyer and seller time to resolve the problem. I have had many buyers change their mind or try to negotiate better prices after bidding. I just cancel and go on. Get tired of fooling with eBay's buyer oriented rules.

    89 on Ebay

    Ok, this will take a while. Some years ago I put over 20 HD patches on eBay with a flat shipping cost and a bold statement that "NO COMBINED SHIPPING" on each one. This was when they charged for listing so I started each auction for .99 hoping to recover some of the cost with flat rate shipping...

    87 octane vs. 93 octane

    My 97 is completely stock except for the Venture rear end and I average 44 mpg with normal mixed (city/highway) driving. I don't spend a lot of time at full throttle though, just occasionally. :biglaugh:

    89 on Ebay

    Sellers cannot leave negative feedback. Can only open a non payment case. Have to wait a week before doing that. eBay will refund fees if buyer doesn't respond properly. I had one buyer take a week to pay but was out of town and eventually paid. Buyers occasionally change their mind. All you can...

    2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat 10 sec. 1/4

    I used to feel the same way about Chrysler Corp vehicles. After several of my friends got Dodge Ram trucks and Durangos and being impressed with their ride, etc, I purchased a new 2006 Durango in 2006. It is now over 8 years old and I haven't even replaced a light bulb. Just oil and filter...

    vmax vs. nighthawk

    The late model Nighthawk 750's were slower than the earlier 700's. They detuned it and it was a dog. It was Honda's base standard for several years with only paint color changes till they dropped it.

    Storm in a teacup. What's the best colour.

    I have had the stock 94 yellow, 95 red, 97 silver and a two custom, an all chrome set and my current copper/orange metallic. The 94 and 95 stock colors are my favorite stock ones. Have always liked bright colors. :biglaugh:

    A/F Needles

    If they are in any way stuck, shoot some type of corrosion remover into the holes and let sit for a while. The screw tips are very easy to round off then you have a whole different set of problems!!!

    Odyssey Battery Died

    Well, decided on the AGM UB12220 22 amp battery off eBay. $42.49 shipped. Exact same picture and battery sold by APEX but cheaper. Don't like the terminal setup. Required a lot of twisting and bending to get the cables to fit but started sure spins the starter fast and lights are BRIGHT! No...

    Bad battery?

    My Odyssey just went out. It was in the bike when I bought it 7 years ago also. Don't know when it was initially put in service. You have received much more than average life on your battery. It is probably shot.

    Late clutch bite

    I have owned two and driven many and all but one didn't engage until the end of the travel. That is why I hunted down adjustable levers. The one that engaged in the middle of travel was the oldest and may have needed clutch work. What you are experiencing is the norm as far as I have seen.

    Numnber 1 Cylinder Not Working

    The older fuel lines were not designed to handle ethanol. Not sure if later ones were either. I would replace all fuel lines as a precaution regardless of year.
