I checked the valves on my 98 at about 130,000 mi and all were in spec. I remember the gentleman I bought the bike from told me that he had...
So for the past few months i have been experiencing a problem. I key on and hit the start button and the starter solenoid will click loudly and...
How does one shim the rear shock? I've just started tuning the suspension on my 5th gen and this sounds like an interesting mod.
