Pirelli Sport Demon bias-ply. I've got over 10,000 miles on mine. Great tire imo and I plan to stick with them. Chaparral had the best price,...
About a 3 foot piece and a rubber mallet.
Thanks! I got this done today using a 1 1/2" diameter piece of PVC pipe. Worked like a charm and only cost ~$4.00. Tomorrow I will fill...
I've torn down the forks on my '87 VFR700 and am preparing to put everything back together. My only concern is the bushing that has an...
