Hey thanks! I didn't know the chain was adjustable, so cool! jk I agree with Randy that it's a pretty rare occasion when one actually uses...
Bought this bike used. The tool kit that came with it has only a spanner with extension. It serves as a gas tank prop. Does it also...
Any change in velocity is acceleration, as you apparently already know. Beans won't work either, but you should try some coffee beans anyway and...
Yeah, but now we have to sort this out anyway. IMO - Blackbird, hands down. Essentially the same technology with more motor. Bird is...
Why would they work? Put a mess of plastic beads in a tire and spin it. Centripetal force will cause the beads to "sling outward" within the...
I know what you mean about keeping stuff clean. I've lived in high desert for the last 20 yrs or so, which made me a fair weather rider. I just...

Hey, happy to help! My sonic cleaner broke years ago. I think it wasn't intended for use in a 200° oven. I'm currently just mixing the dino...

1.) "Mod" is not a word. Neither is it an abbreviation in the truest sense. 2.) Moidol is a compound created by blending appropriate...
Awesome, thanks!
Thanks Rob. No replies, so I used a new internet feature called "search" to find a few earlier posts. :biggrin: Some good info from a guy...
