    Central Machinery (Harbor Freight) Motorcycle Tire Changer

    I purchased the 2 part Cntral Machinery Motorcycle Tire Changing set from Harbor Freight thinking I could save some cash in the long run. Tire Changer Motor Cycle Tire Adapter Combined the total came out to ~$108. That's just under 2 tire changes around here so it sounded like a good deal...

    Adelaide Hills ride. HD Go Pro cam

    Dang nice quality video. That HD pro really is a upgrade from the standard. Nice riding except you where on the wrong side of the road the whole time you nutter! :D

    clutch and synthetic oil help

    I dunno about the clutch packs.. but tons of people run synthetic on here. Amsoil, Mobil-1, Rotella, it all works well.

    How durable is the frame?

    I've stress tested the frame more than most and can say barring some sort of cosmically bad luck the frame will take a hell of a beating. Abraxis's frame is the only FZ6 I've heard of cracking like that. They can't all be winners :don'tknow: How much are they asking?

    Any financial planner or accountants out there?

    Sucks you're having to sell her :( From what I understand, it won't hurt your credit score. It won't help it either though. Creditors like to see at least one or two long standing, unblemished revolving credit lines that are consistantly being reduced. This establishes a baseline to...

    Yamaha FZ8: Set to be a Unique Naked

    Looks like a early 90's headlight, and the exhaust is a deal breaker for me. That seat looks very uncomfortable too.. like they stole some plywood from a local build site and streched some fabric over it.

    Tank removal

    The only real options to completely empty the tank is to remove the gas cap, or fuel pump.. or ride it until you're pushing it home. Should be 5 or 6 hex bolts for either one. Remove the cap and keep flipping and rotating the tank upside down, it'll make a hell of a mess. Or same thing for the...

    best tool for cutting hugger...?

    Variable speed dremmel works well with a cutting disc. Just don't get it too fast or it can melt the edges of the cut. Nothing some sanding wouldn't fix though. ABS plastic begins to melt around 212F.

    First bike! FZ6 or CBR600F4i??

    I dunno who has it, but somone has an awesome sig that goes something like this. "There are no beginner bikes, only beginner riders. The bike already knows what it's supposed to do" :thumbup: If you're up in the air between a SV650 and the FZ i'd go for the FZ in a heartbeat. It's a better...

    oil filter ok for 7000 miles?

    While it might be "ok" for 7k miles..A supertech walmart filter only costs like $4 and gets great marks in all the oil filter reviews. I'd rather spend $4 and not worry about it.

    DIY fork removal...

    You don't need any stand at all. Just put about 40lbs on the pillion seat (I've used a bag of cement, also used a bag of potting soil as well) with the bike on the center stand. You can put a jack under the engine as well if you wish with a few wood blocks on it. The center stand is very stable...

    Value of suspension mods

    Removing the front forks and rear shock is about as easy as it gets. You could save yourself $210 right there for about 30mins or work. As far as advantages, having a suspension setup correctly for your weight is amazing. Everything about the bike will feel more planted in corners and...
