You beat me to it, Joey_Dude. I can always tell a difference with fresh oil, on most any bike I've had.
Now THAT could be a full time job...
I'd be tempted to pull off the slave cylinder and see if the end of the clutch pushrod needs some grease where it engages the slave cylinder...
I can only assume all of the people I've seen pulled over recently have been talking on their cell phones or obstructing traffic. I'm certain that...
It seems to me that the '07 is around 530 lbs dry. I don't remember where that came from, just something that is stuck in my memory. Probably when...
That's a weird one. I'd go to the Hawk forum and find out. If you do, a follow-up post would be great. It never hurts to know about these things.
Every constant velocity carb I have ever seen is supposed to have the needle centered in the discharge tube, or at least be allowed to...
I would suspect that the little bit of scuffing you could do with some abrasive paper is nothing compared to what they go through on a daily...
Did you rough up the metal plates with some fine grit sandpaper, or use them as-is? It might be worth roughing up the surfaces a bit with some 400...
It is always difficult to follow somebody else on carburetor work. You never know what they have done, or why. Looks like you're getting it...
Maybe we should just call the V-5 a "Pretendaceptor".
Hey, I just got a great idea. Each state could institute a "pay up front" speeding option. You fork over $500 in January, and you can collect up...
Is there a "home" version?
Not to beat this to death, but was the needle floating instead of rigid? When the little washers are used on the stock needles, it usually raises...
Up until this thread, everybody has been fine... :pound: :pound:
Would this be the same Honda that designed the charging system that fries R/R's and electrical connectors, and has had to recall bikes due to...
Check to see if the needles have been shimmed, and if so, that they are "floating" rather than rigid. I have seen more that one occurrence where...
Well, maybe it is just me, but I like it when members report good and bad experiences with different vendors. Read about the experiences people...
I know what you mean about the black plastic guard. I find it a bit annoying, too. I kind of do a composite of all of the above posts, and do what...
My two cents: To preface this, the longest I have ever gone without a citation is seven years, and there have been occasions where I have received...
Separate names with a comma.
