    Will rotors work on both sides in the front?

    Is there a difference between rotors in front? Can I order two and they would fit either side?

    How PAJ2/coasting enricheners work

    Okay, I learned something today. I have always said that PAJ2 is blocked off at idle and only opens at off-idle throttle angles similar to the piston slide. I was WRONG. I did an experiment using a straw on one of my spare carbs. I originally was going to mention suck and hole but figured...

    Top Priority Work?

    My friend just bought his first motorcycle a 1985 Honda Nighthawk. It was in real good shape for being a 1985, and he only wanted to spend around a grand anyways. But it definitely needs some work (the last owner who had it for 3 years hasn't done anything to it - not changing the oil, or...

    Bad Ride to Work

    A car in another lane kicked up a big rock and it hurled it into my shin, then it bounced off and hit my left crankcase cover. Anyone ever tried touching up a 2007? Looks like it's black powder coat. I have two little chips that some touchup paint could take car of. If I decide to get anal about...

    Close call at work 15Kv fault...

    I think there's a couple of Electricians on here that this will make sense to. Saturday at work we took down a 15,000 volt feeder to test 5 transformers on a daisy chain feeder and then put them back in service. We were done and putting it back into service. When I threw a 1200 amp...

    86 Venture 1300 Carbs work on an 85 V-max?

    My right rear (as I sit on the bike)carb is messed up and probably cant be fixed. I got a set of carbs off an 86 XVZ13 pretty cheap. What would be the best way to go? I can either take the right rear venture carb, switch the jets, and bolt it in with the v-max carbs, or just clean, switch jets...

    Cylinder head work

    I picked up a set of heads off a Venture, with the intention of porting/polishing them over the winter. Anyone here ever port a set, and if so what should I look for. How thick are the castings, any thin spots I should be careful. Do they like big ports, or is the shape more important. I...
