So I've got a set of Race Tech gold valve emulators, and I'm going to try to setup the front suspension. For the most part I think I know...
You can't say that I didn't warn you that the 3-piece was going to be a PITA getting the splitter connected up! 2-piece and you'd have been done...
Merry Xmas to all the insightful and helpful fellas on this board.
There are two thrust springs that sit between the throttle shafts and are just held in by pressure. Threw me through a loop trying to figure out...
I ended up renting from UHaul 3-4 times this year, and it was super convenient since I live about 10 minutes away from one. Very inexpensive,...
I found the three-hose system (stock) a lot harder to get a stiff lever on. However, what finally did it for me after getting the master cylinder...
Stray nailed it. It comes down to the price, condition, your use case, and your level of patience. I would certainly not buy it as an only bike....
Absolutely. N+1 is a real problem. I was doing pretty good bike-wise before I came into possession of a really pretty moped through a coworker a...
Well that might be a wrap on the 2021 riding season for the 'ole gal. We got lucky with a really, really nice day here in WI. I think we were...
Honestly Jim, at this point y9u're unaware and uninitiated to the cult of Rotella. This is your last chance to run away from the Kool-Aid that is...
I've checked three stores this week for my beloved 15W40 Rotella dino oil, but I can only find 10w30. It may not be the *best*, but I use it on...
If you want to see a 500 that's probably making a lot of sneezing noises, watch the #6 in this VF500 Cup race from 1986. I've timestamped the...
I'm seeing a lot of Harley Panamerica's around me recently. Gotta say... I quite like 'em. Granted I live right next to their Product Development...
I think about your valve story every time I think about giving the bike a little more beans than normal when hopping onto the freeway ramp, so I'm...
Absolutely. The best part is not hearing the whoopie cushion whoosh! when I sit down on the bike or hit a bump in the road, hah. I'm actually...
Finally got around to installing the YSS shock--got one that fits a VF500F instead of a Sportster! I put about 40 miles on it today. I can't tell...
I would love to get into racing eventually, and I've been watching a ton of videos about the endurance races. That's like #1 on my list of things...
So you know how Stray mentioned how Bubba did some repairs on that suzuki he bought? Well, I was the Bubba when I was trying to get a 1995 VFR750...
Jim, you wouldn't believe it... but I was sitting at an intersection today and I just happened to think of this post. I think I found a way to...
This is exactly where my mind went. The only bike I'd ever felt that throttle "snatchiness" at low to no throttle was on my FZR600, and a lot of...
