    first time !!! track day !!! be kind to me !!!

    Heh the video was very wavey, looked like you where going so fast you warped space and time, you obviously have a red bike :thumbup: Is the guy in front the track master? Usually tracks require all lights to be taped over or the fuse pulled. But if he's braking to show good brake spots that'd...

    Anyone Recommend a Chain Rivet Tool?

    I'm about to replace my chain/sprockets at around 31kmiles. It's not an immidiate requirement, but there is some wear starting to show on the sprockets and some of the links are pretty stiff. I need to know a good chain rivet tool for the master link. I'm not really worried about a chain...

    Found this on youtube... enoy if its your kind of videos :)

    Man, that guy can ride the crap outta the Fz6 :eek:. That being said that's just plain insane on a public road like that. It was a cool video to watch, but damn makes me wonder how long until we're watching a tribute video for em. Odds are against riding like that and surviving for very long...

    How to install a gas tank and remove a fuel pump??

    It's pretty easy to diy. Just make sure you buy the o-ring part #12 and if you can torque it to spec (2.9ftlb) or it can damage the seal. Speaking from experience here. If you don't have a torque, tighten the bolts with a allen wrench just past snug in a star pattern, like tightening lugnuts. If...

    The adventures of a broken clutch cable

    Well, you could store the cable, it's just larger than I thought it would be. Was thinking it would be just the cable itself, but it's the entire metal tube and everything. It would still fit no problem, just not as compact as I thought originally.

    The adventures of a broken clutch cable

    Well, got it replaced. Only took about 45mins. I was worried after reading some of your posts here, but it really was easy. I was thinking you'd just get the actual cable and thread it through the tube and put the stopper on the end, but you get the whole cable with the tubing and all. First...

    The adventures of a broken clutch cable

    So I'm cruising down the interstate as usual, take my exit and pull the clutch in to stop at the light, still moving at a pretty good clip about 45mph or so. I pull it in.. and in.. and in.. and then there is a small tug and no more resistance, still moving and that tailgate in front of me is...

    Replace killswitch and starter switch ??

    Try taking the starter switch/starter housing apart, should be 4 screws I think really easy. Make sure the wires are still properly seated. Check for bad connections, clean and maybe squirt some wd40 in there make sure it's not gummed up. Make sure the screws are tight as well. Maybe it was too...

    Using the Kill switch.

    I just throw my bike on the side and let the tip-switch kill it. ;) Nah I always use the kill switch too. I've replaced mine due to damage from a crash, and if it wears out I"d be very surprised. I've never had to replace a lightswitch due to being worn out and it's basically the same damn...

    Keep your head

    You know I keep seeing alot of "motorcycle made an obscene jesture then changed lanes" stuff. I'm wondering how many of these "obscene jestures" are hand turn signals and the ignorant bastards think they're getting flipped off. A right turn hand signal could be misconstrued I guess if you don't...

    LOTs of PICs of trackday

    Great pics man, that white sure stands out. That looks like a really dusty dirty track. I'd be leary with all that fine sand/dirt all over the track. Sounds like ya'll had a blast though. Would you go back to that track?

    Carrying a concealed weapon???

    I'm goin to copy and paste my post from another gun thread because I really hope it gets read. I know it's long, but maybe some of the oversea's folks will change their minds about "rednecks and cowboys" shooting eachother over road rage or for the secret prize from a box of crackerjacks. I'm...

    OT: Post your scam stories

    I find it funny how his english gets worse and worse as the emails go on. You'd think they'd have a well written copy/paste script by now so it'd sound a little more legit. Reading that email was so confusing I wouldn't know what to do if I was stupid enough to try to go forward with that sale hah.
