Thanks, I'm hoping the color looks good when they are back on the bike. Should be done next week. Got my fingers crossed.
Bearings and seals for the front wheel will cost less than $20. Don't pay exorbitant Honda prices for something that is a standard off the shelf...
I'm having mine done by a local place and they quoted $186 for both and that included stripping the old paint. Don't know how that compares, but...
I'm not exactly sure why centripetal force would cause the beads to move to the lighter part of the wheel. Could work, could as likely be round...
Yep, I use gear oil with my Hawke oiler. Works well. Got about 25,000 out of the stock chain. Not as good as some but I'm not as dutiful as I...
I have them and am going to install them when I do the 30,000 miles stuff this winter.
Motorcyclist magazine talks about aftermarket HID and the problem with reflectors in this month's issue. They say the light scatters a lot and...

That's how I do it, except for the wax part.
I don't see why they wouldn't. If you're familiar with your dealer it might not cost you too much. Maybe $50 for the sprocket and another $20 for...
I like the sound and looks of my Yoshimura slip-on, although some people seem to think that a Suzuki fanboy is going to rip it off. :wink: Oops,...
Yeah, I know that feeling: it happens when I ride the wife's Silverwing. Wakes you up right quick. Kind of like when your dirt bike has right hand...
When I first started riding, about age 14, I rode the hell out of what I had, went as fast as I could go, but I started on a Honda 65, graduated...
