How many miles are on your 98? I paid 3000 for my 99 in august with 12,800 miles on it.
Looks like a comfy canyon carver, some of the canyons and surface streets especially really beat you up on a standard VFR. I guess it all depends...
Those seemingly good tires are going to be very dry and hard as a rock. My 99 had only 12,800 miles on it when I got it last august, and while the...
I would imagine the torque spec for that big friggin nut is like 2.375654 million newton meters. If its something your torque wrench can't handle,...
What part is this for? Ever try threadlocker? What about torque specs?
Check out bikebandit.com or oldbikebarn.com if bikebandit doesn't have what your looking for. I wouldn't even look for the OEM stuff as it is...
Does it shift through the gears with the engine running ok? Did you check to make sure there isn't gravel jammed in the front sprocket area?
Sounds like a sweet mod. I was riding today through LA traffic and the bike hovered around 200-210 most of the time, once getting up to 220 when...
Thanks reg, though I've been on the site since august when I picked up my VFR. Not sure where I'll end up after this three month internship is...
JTC, you'll have to show me all the roads round these parts. Yeah the snake was kind of a madhouse today. The hangout spot was so crowded I didn't...
Thanks crusty, I figured it would be. I actually hadn't planned on riding it on the weekends to avoid LEO's and traffic but I'm itching to ride...
Randy that post is borderline poetic. I might hit up the mulholland Hwy tomorrow, otherwise known as "The Snake"
I can pick up the coastal highway down here, I was thinking about giving that a shot. Though I know its not too pleasant until it gets further north.
Thanks for the candid replies folks. Badbilly, I am aware of the not so pleasant areas around here even if I've only been in town for less than...
I recently graduated college and have an internship with Toyota at their headquarters in Torrance, CA. Last week I loaded my stuff up in my...
Yeah, your best bet with chain lubing when your traveling long distances everyday is to lube it at the end of the day while the chain is still warm.
I really do like the new 250, though its not being accepted real well by the general sportbike masses cause its a single cylinder. Every review...
A relatively new chain should last 10k miles. Make sure you have the tools to adjust it. Don't forget to get the oil changed during your trip....
Anyone bigger than my little 5'7" 140 pound frame should be able to center stand their bike without any trouble, since I pop mine up on the stand...
Permatex makes a gasket that comes in a can (looks like cheez wiz) and it is by far the best sealant I have ever used. ASE certified master auto...
