Nope. I know what your talking about. Not those. You have to remove the dummy tank cover to see these ones. So these are the float bowl vents? How fun. I would hook a battery tender to it, except I live in an apartment complex, and I have no power outlets to connect to in the parking...

So I haven't been able to ride my bike since I got it back from being repaired from the accident. I pretty much rode it from the shop back to my apartment, since it was raining. Well, I try to start it periodically and warm it up during the off season, but my battery was never able to crank it...

That sounds awesome! I'd love to see picts too! I thought about taking the Max on a road course as well, but I figure the bike is just too damn heavy for it. I was eventually going to get a maybe an R6 or R1 for that. Until then, I'll probably just keep using my car for road courses.

Here's a few gift ideas for you parents out there wondering what to get the kids for this holiday season! How bout an aquapet for the girls? Note that they require 2 AA batteries which aren't included before you order... http://www.myaquapet.com/toys/harf.php Maybe a Super Soaker...

Being over a month since my motorcycle was wrecked, I began getting desperate! The weather was sunny, and still, my bike has not been fully repaired. I stared at my riding gear sitting there, looking for some action. So I threw the gear on and went out to the garage and fished out the first...

http://www.ecossemoto.com I was looking through a Dupont Registry magazine the other day and found an ad for one of these bikes. At first glance, it looked to be turbocharged. Apparently that's just a carb. Then I saw the price tag. $49800??? WTF???? What the hell is so damn special...

If they would have included a new front wheel in the original quote, they probably would have totalled it. I guess it was a good thing.

Well, I got it back yesterday. Rode it to work. After work, I dropped it right off again. Front wheel's bent, though you can't really tell unless it the wheel's spinning, so it's understandable. Front turn signal wiring is swapped (HOW?), radiator shield still has a dent in it, and some...

You guys are puting ideas in my head! Now I want to rig up a shift light LED and wire it into my helmet in the corner of my eye.

I'm just having them fix it. It's being done by a Yamaha dealer. Hopefully they know what the hell they're doing. I know how to work on cars, but not too experienced with bikes. So I don't feel like doing it myself. I have to finish the engine rebuild on my car, so throwing another project...

Well, without calling me, or anything, The lady's insurance company just sent me a check for the exact amount of the quoted damage. That seems kinda stupid, if you ask me! Shouldn't they just have the shop fix the damn thing, and pay them? It is in fact an "estimate", which does not determine...

Re: Motorcycle Oils vs. Automotive Oils I'm gonna start using Mobil 1 ESP 5w-30 full synthetic, because I can get it free from work!!!

If they decide to fix it, and they miss some stuff that was damaged, it shouldn't be a biggie. I'll notice it all before I pick the bike up.

Damage has been estimated at $6400. That's pushing the line! It's an '02 with 4400 miles on it, all original with no other problems but the accident damage. Shall we start a poll!?!?!?

When I first saw her pulling out in front of me, my initial thought before the impact was "I'm gonna go Dukes of Hazard over her hood!" On impact I shut my eyes. stopped, then opened them up. Still sitting on my bike. Bike was still upright. Just kinda jammed halfway into her fenderwell.

She did have insurance. I'm gonna try to get some estimates on Monday.

You mean like this? At first glance you can't really even tell it was in the accident. Then you look up close and see all the little things that got dented and cracked, and also got some red paint swapped over. My helmet got scuffed alittle too. Better that than my face!

Funny, I thought my first accident on my bike would be my fault and involve me going to the hospital in a ambulance or body bag. Niether in this case. Me doing 35 down the road, old lady pulls in front of me. Me slam on brakes. I wacked her fender and right front tire. The impact itself was...

I've recently noticed I've been having this problem too. I bought my 02 back in November. And I usually just ride it one way non stop and shut if off. But the other day, I stopped in the convenience store and bought a drink. Came back out, and crank, crank, bleh!!!!. I had to push start it...

Is there something wrong with me?
