You mentioned you ran a guitar string through the pilot jet area, but it does have me thinking (since you've essentially hit on trying...
Ohhh---yea yea, I realized it was the wrong piece as well yesterday when I compared it against the other bike I was working on. I probably put the...
What's not supposed to be there? The old bearing race I split to use as a driver (I pulled it off the stem after seating the new bearing), the...
La la la la... Can't hear youuuuuuuuu :Lalala: :Rofl: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I cut the old bottom race with an angle grinder to use as...
Totally would have forgotten about putting them in the freezer and wouldn't have remembered until it was time for installation. Thanks to both of...
Yep, I've also got very limited (see: 1 day) of riding on the YSS shock, since that was about the last nice day of the year. I hear you guys are...
It's definitely not Suzuki-universal to fully invert the carburetors when taking the float measurement. I know that because I learned it the hard...
Thank you. This is what I needed to hear. I'm leaning towards 0.80 even with track day in mind. There's a lot to be done before hand, but my...

Well that might be a wrap on the 2021 riding season for the 'ole gal. We got lucky with a really, really nice day here in WI. I think we were...

I've checked three stores this week for my beloved 15W40 Rotella dino oil, but I can only find 10w30. It may not be the *best*, but I use it on...
If you want to see a 500 that's probably making a lot of sneezing noises, watch the #6 in this VF500 Cup race from 1986. I've timestamped the...
