I use the white spray chain lube. The main thing you want to do is prevent rust. The chain cleans itself with this stuff. Not clean enough yet?...
Hey thanks, I will try some dampening adjustment. I don't think shocks go bad with time. This bike's only got 18,000 miles on it. I'm going to...
Ok I can't find this info in the workshop manual and have no owners manual. I can see there's a spring preload adjuster and I read in the...
Heh heh, that's funny. I was going to suggest he back the spring preload out as they tend to get cranked up to hard and that will make the rear...
