Well, the ol' butt dyno is notorious inaccurate. If you really want to know if your valves are getting too tight, do a leakdown test. Any loss...
Main thing is to be gentle with the plastic push pins, especially the ones on the underneath of the fairing. You push in the center with a small...
My thoughts? Why not stick with what works. The oversize tire may not fit the rim as well as the stock size, it may interfere with the swingarm,...
Mitutoyo makes some excellent measuring equipment. And that's an excellent price. There's no vernier for 0.0001 measurements, but it will work...
Personally I would use a micrometer, but I already have one. Since no one answered the question, I would recommend a Fowler 0-1 micrometer. They...
If you tighten the banjo bolt with no pad in the caliper, can you see which piston/s move? The SMC should have no affect on the front caliper...
According to the FSM for my '99 the right side spacer is longer than the left side spacer, so it sticks out from the wheel bearing further. If you...
You don't specify what year, but on my '99 the large spacer is on the right side, small spacer on the left. Yours pretty much looks like mine....
I, for one, would not want to see HD fail. That would put a lot of people out of work, and decrease the number of motorcycle companies. I saw the...
If the motor isn't running, the R/R isn't supplying any voltage. The voltage you're seeing with the ignition off is from the battery. You may need...
R/R is shot. Even if the battery were no good, you shouldn't be seeing the voltage drop as rpm increase. Also, as was mentioned, check the plug...
Okay, let me see if I got this straight: you show 13.58 V with the engine idling, but it drops to 12.87 V with the engine revved up over 2,000...
I think it helps clean the cooties out of their pits.
Not a lot really, mostly just semantics. "Lane splitting" generally just refers to moving between the lanes at any speed. "Lane filtering" seems...
Some people say they can tell the difference. I've had rubberized and regular, and can't tell any difference, but YMMV.
My thought is since you're going with all new, rehabbing the calipers is a good idea. Clean all that old gook out of there.
I installed the Galfers on my '99 and do like them, but share you feelings about running them over the fender, but it isn't too bad. Just be...
That's the tool you need.
Comes right down to it, if done correctly, it's safer than a clip-style master link.
Just add the oil until you see it in the middle of lines on the sight glass. You apparently didn't get it full enough at the fall oil change. Oil...
