I was a late adopter to headlift stands, but I really like the one I have now, which makes fork or front wheel work super easy; it is no good for...
I can't see why not Lint. You'll need the axle out so have to support the front end, but you can reach up and get the damper rod bolts easy...
The washer is a copper crush washer. If you look closely you can often see a difference on the two faces, an indentation from the bolt head...
Maybe they were designed by the same guy that did the coolant drains on the left head of the ST1100. Pulling and reinstalling these involved a lot...

My new fork springs arrived yesterday, 0.90 kg/mm from Racetech, but sized to suit the 43mm CBR600F4 forks that I'm now running. I had temporarily...
If you rule out noise from loose bearings, a clunk on the brakes might come from some play in the left leg linked brake pivot/SMC combination, or...

I've used All Balls tapered roller bearings with good results. Before you do that it is worth checking your bearings as they may just need...
That's making me feel very virtuous about having cut out and soldered my 3P connector a month back! There should be a trail of spilled electrons...
Blanking plates are usually bolted on; you need to ensure an air-tight seal otherwise you will hear an exhaust leak. Sorry, no vacuum ports on...
PAIR system: remove all the hoses and solenoid. Cap off the supply port at the airbox. Install blanking plates at the cylinder head. Evap...
