As long as we keep the "Dear Randy" and "Tiger Tiger" threads...
I think his close friends call him "3".
I think we should have a way of counting useful posts versus overall posts. I'd be screwed right out of the box, but at least I'd have an accurate...
Way to go, Joey_Dude!
Which book is it that you are referencing, Stosh? I like it more than mine... Seriously, the book I have, service manual or not, is lame on a lot...
Yeah, that thought has crossed my mind. If I sold caliper bolts, I'd recommend replacing them at every oil change, just to be safe. :biggrin:...
Hmm. Maybe we have different shop manuals... The rotor bolts make complete sense to me. Like you have pointed out, they are small bolts that are...
Be happy it was only a valve stem! I can't even imagine the exchange of dialog if it was a whole wheel...
I think it's true for all 6th Gen, since my shop manual is for '02 and on. I don't get it, either. I can see connecting rod bolts, or main bearing...
How sad is this? Since the front brake caliper bolts are "single-use" and I have to remove the caliper(s) to remove the front wheel, I figured I'd...
When it comes right down to it, I'd like to thank darn near everybody here. My primary reason for joining this forum was to exchange technical...
It can also be helpful to apply some valve grinding compound to the tip of the screwdriver. It doesn't always work, but sometimes it's just enough...
I give up. Has the valve stem been repaired? I might have missed that part somehow.
If you have Ace Hardware or Orchard Supply hardware stores out there, they usually carry it. FWIW, the #2 is a pretty decent all around lube, and...
I usually use LPS #1 spray lube on all the key switches, including the seat. It dries into a film, and doesn't hurt the electrics. Just a small...
This article is about the most straight-forward with regard to being short and to the point on fastener considerations. "Proof Load" is the most...
Out of curiosity, how much does a top box weigh? With all the brackets, etc.
What particularly bothers me when it comes to motorcycle service is that the consequences of a bad repair job are potentially so much more...
Ditto on that. The top box might be changing the front/rear weight bias and/or rear sag just enough to have a slightly worn front tire act up. It...
I think the short answer is that there is little interest in a VFR-type motorcycle by the motorcyclist population at large. And I agree that there...
Separate names with a comma.
