    just replaced the steering bearings...

    The worse part was getting the races in and out. Inserting the bottom race was the big pain because of the way it sits. We improvised a tool for that one, a three d-cell mag light that was already broken. Worked perfectly. :)

    85 vs 86

    Is there any difference in the front wheel from an 85 to an 86? I bought my buddy's bike (an 86) but since I had just put a new front tire on my 85 I swapped the wheels. Now I have two things, the breaks are squealing a bit at stops and the speedo seems about 3-4mph off at lower speeds and 5-7...

    Weight loss... Yours not the bikes...

    Yeah but there's three issues. One, I have a high tolerance and I need about 8 or 9 before I notice a difference. Two if you read up on it alchohol metabalizes (sp) in your gut area before anything else. Three, my friends and I go out a lot, about five nights a week, it was adding up :)...

    As an experiment I made an effort to keep the cruising RPMs around 3k and mpg went from 26 to 32.

    Front Springs

    Hey all, I'm going to be changing out my steering bearings and figured as long as everything is apart I might as well change the front fork springs. Anyone have a reccommendation on type and where to get them. I don't need high performance as I'm not into any sort of racing, just a weekend...

    Weight loss... Yours not the bikes...

    I posted this on 10-29.... Jan 1 I got desperate enough to stop drinking beer. I stopped for three months because I knew I had to do it cold turkey for it to work. It did and I dropped 20lbs. I've now been able to add it back in and not put any weight on. I've got some more to loose but...

    Speeding ticket etiquette

    We got stopped for road gaurding once. There were 15 of us, he had no idea who he could give a ticket to so he just yelled at us for a few minutes.

    Help-how do I lower the bike?

    I'd reccommend trying the seat first. I bought a max where the forks were lowered about an inch and it really felt like it affected the handling. It might have just been me but it felt tippy compared to my stock. Additionally it seemed to change my riding position just enough to irritate...

    Stebel Nautilus Horn

    Picked one of these up today. I see a few people posted on this about where they thought they were going to mount it but not a lot of follow up about how it turned out and how the install went. If you have one I have a couple questions, Did you end up getting a new switch? I see it...

    My buddy owed me 2500 from another bike purchase so I traded him that and my Maxim X for his. So about 4200 I spent. His always has out perfomed mine, it pulls like a beast and has Kerker pipes. I'm switchin the paint off my red to his and my new tire. Then I need to find the oil leak on my...
