Have you tried a full-strength dose of Techron or other fuel-system cleaner through the bike? I did it about yearly as preventative maintenance...
There are air vents for the fuel bowls in the carb. It sets the pressure in the fuel bowl to the same as outside the bike (so that the air...
I believe our wheels are not safe for mounting radials, bias-ply only. (they don't have the extra retention rib for the bead??)
And I had a similar issue when I vented the float bowls to the airbox, instead of to outside air. The vacuum level in the airbox was enough to...
Grey, if it's small, I can ship it (although UPS ground gets expensive fast for heavy items without a corporate account).
So went riding a while back with the polarized sunglasses and the clear face-shield. It was ok, but I was happier with the dark smoke faceshield,...
The bike will prepped for storage, although I'll be coming back for trips often enough that I should be able to ride the bike every few months, at...
So, the classifieds feature doesn't really work for this, so I'm putting this in the local section, since it's a pretty local thing. I'm moving...
It's like bleeding at the caliper: 1) pull in brake lever (it should stop before it gets to the grip, but maybe no if there's tons of air in the...
What kind of poor braking are you seeing? poor feel from the lever? or no matter how hard you apply pressure, the pads don't seem to bite into...
Well, given that mine sat for over 10 years barely being ridden, until I got it, it hasn't seen a lot of mileage over the years. Half the mileage...
BadBilly is being rather helpful and cogent in this thread. I'm actually rather curious how he knows so much about optics.
I'm farsighted, and with an astigmatism that allows me to pass a DMV vision exam, but I prefer wearing my glasses as I have FAR better depth...
I've looked at pin lock in the past, and the polar optics idea is definitely interesting, but I was hoping for a single car+bike solution. I may...
The hole certainly isn't going to help, but the purpose of the packing material is to absorb the high frequencies of the exhaust note. The...
Plasmas are fine, or at least mine is. The LCDs in the car and both laptops are polarized about 45 degrees from the glasses, so I get a pretty...
My normal "clear" lenses are transitions, but they don't transition in the car or in the helmet because the glass/visor blocks the uv trigger. I...
polycarbonate lenses, polarized, grey tint, and then my prescription (which is pretty light at +2 diopters, although a fair bit of astigmatism)....
I have prescription sunglasses (finally), and picked up polarized lenses due to all the glare here in Cali. I just checked with my helmet visor...
The rear clamps (if they're like mine) seem like they can take forever to be fully tightened up, due to the pitch of the threads. That also lets...
Separate names with a comma.
