Will do....thanks! -Stephen.
Reg, Thanks, I always stick to OEM parts for situations like this. Part no. I found on Ron Ayers: 31600-MBG-306, this part appears to supercede...
I bought by 99 VFR on November 15th...the next morning when I wanted to ride it to work for the first time, went out to start the bike, and...
Just did, thanks for the tip on Ron Ayers, BTW. Good prices and they will drop ship to any address.
It's not easy to tell; a staked master link, when properly installed, looks almost exactly like an every other link on an endless chain. I would...
I agree, Penske shocks are a good investment. This is why I said in my original post that one of the thing I will do to a bike is replace the...
Of course, a Penske or Ohlins shock is better than the OEM one; they can cost between 8-12% of the cost of the entire bike. Some things, like OEM...
Thanks, Chesthing and Taz for the info. Regarding replacing the chain, this one is pretty rusty and is going to go. With respect to chain...
Thanks everyone for the helpful info on RK chains, sprockets, WD40, and all the other helpful information. And an additional thank you all for...

Was culling images tonight for Laguna for the PR gang there, and came across this shot of Jake Zemke of American Honda Racing...reminded me of how...
That's a beauty...congrats on your new bike. I'm in the Bay Area, too, we should think about meeting up for a ride at some point. -PC
The shot of Nicky at PI is one of my faves; I have a print of it hanging on my wall at home. It was taken as he was running up the the hill to...
Nope, no umbrella girl photos, those are a dime a dozen. I am trying to establish my own look, and cheesecake isn't going to get me...
Xray, My recommendation would be to send your shock to Traxxion Dynamics in Georgia. They are excellent and revalved the suspension on my 2001...
