Only bend the lower two tabs back, the top one will align the bulb properly. I just did this on mine last week, works great. Make sure you replace...
The stock screen is definitely quieter than the larger ones, Corbin used to make a seat for the 5th gen, but doesn't anymore. I can definitely...
Only do it if your stock fairings are trashed or non-existent. The bike's a classic now.
Buy yourself a fifth gen(98-01), put on a slip-on exhaust, then ride several thousand miles a year, and you'll be happy. The 6th gens have been...
Ever consider its just the gauge that reads low and the temperature of the bike is where it should be. My 5th gen runs at 170 degrees F while...
It will say on the reservior lid what fluid to use, and it is brake fluid, since it functions exactly like a brake system to actuate the clutch...
Try preloading the shifter slightly before clutching to shift, see if that smooths out the 1-2 shift. Hows the oil? these bikes aren't known for...
They are only a smidge dark, but you only rode a mile and were at very low rpms. Getting the motor fully run in and cruise around 4-5k for several...
Exactly what EpiEric said. The rear axle is mounted offset to the one side of the sleeve that you rotate to adjust chain tension(its called an...
I talked to a guy the other day who had the Q2's on his speed triple. He says they have lots of grip and give reasonable mileage. It all depends...
I have run the dunlop roadsmarts and liked them, but now have the Michelin Pilot Road 2's and think they are a better tire.
Don't i feel weird now... my dad is around 52 and I'm currently 22 and have a girl I've been dating for 3 years who has given me hints as obvious...
Factorypro makes a shift star kit for the 5th gen that I have heard really good things about, not sure if they are making(or plan to make) one for...
Hmmm, interesting. I know the 5th gen bikes have iffy 5 to 6 interchanges. I have been able to cure it for the most part by being deliberate when...
Glad to hear you've come back to the dark side. These bikes truly are an incredible bargain these days. What kind of tires are you getting for it?
You have to remove the reeds from the plates, theres a little phillips head screw holding each one together.
PAIR stands for Pulse Air Injection Reduction. Essentially is uses the venturi effect to draw fresh air out of the airbox and into the heads right...
Well it was the whole reason I didn't even consider a 6th gen a year ago when I bought my 99. The idea of having a sudden power kick heeled over...
Now I wouldn't say I'd buy a sixth gen over it as I'm pro gear driven cams and anti VTEC, but I have never ridden one...
Well, as I noticed on mine, the bike runs noticeably smoother at lower rpms, and doesn't backfire excessively on decel anymore.(aftermarket...
