:potstir: That was the rear!!
Well past the limit??!! That thing was well past the limit about 10,000 miles ago. LOL
I'll have to admit that if I drove in what passes for normal traffic in California I would be dressed to the nines. Too many cars, too many BDC,...
I use a torque wrench simply because I have several on hand. But it's never a bad idea, especially when threading into aluminum, like Haygood...
Even if you could drop it straight down, the wheel won't clear the calipers, they are too far inboard. I pull both of them, it's only two bolts...

If a loose steering stem is not addressed immediately then you'll have to replace them sooner rather than later. If you stay on top of the...
If you're using a triple tree lift it would be hard to rule out the steering head bearings as the issue since the weight of the bike is still on...
Wow, talk about showing your age. :courage: I've only seen pictures of them, not the real thing. But I'm not particularly fond of old bikes, i.e....
Unless you're running long oil change intervals I doubt that the difference in oils is very significant. That's JMO of course. I think most of the...
I bought my first pair about 1982 so they were good then, but I was thinking they were gone for a while later in the 80's, but not sure.
What a coincidence! That's the reason I started wearing Thurlow gloves. I smashed the tips of three fingers and got tired of gloves that didn't...
