I hate to hear that man. So far with fingers crossed the site hasn't been blocked at my work. Our computers are monitored constantly but things like you tube and ebay are blocked. Well at least you have something extra to look forward to now when you get home.

My bike did the same when I first got it. The mileage was horrible compare to the reported 40miles to a gallon. I have 2000miles on my bike now and the mileage is much much better. It started getting better each fill up past the 600 mile service. I am 6-2 and weigh 260 pounds atm and I am...

By what you have described bud sounds like this guy didn't really care about the bike. The fact all those little things are messed up isn't a good sign at all. That being said here is what I would be thinking in the back of my mind if I was you. 1 There is alot of little things wrong with the...

Buddy I wish I could help. I am new with bikes but I can assure you one of these more experienced guys or ladies is going to chime in soon. Good luck. :thumbup:

I have never heard of or seen those before. I think they actually look cool. By the way congrats.:thumbup:

:thumbup:....

Milo wish you the best of luck with the trip man. Hope all goes well. I am excited about seeing the pics. Thanks in advance.:thumbup:

I spray windex on a rag and wipe away. I keep the bike spotless 99.9% of the time. Also use WD-40 on the rims. It is amazing how easy and fast it gets all the grim off and not to mention the shine it leaves behind.

Just curious I have always been told when I store something with a engine that takes oil, antifreeze or gas to drain them completely before storage. I was told for gas it will build up polutants you don't want running through your gas system. Please explain. Thanks

Man these things with bikes hitting things that fly seem more common than thought. I well my uncle had a friend who bought a HD and was riding on a country road oneday. All of a sudden he had a turkey in his face with just a turtle shell on. He wrecked and when he stopped he still had the dead...

:rof: You know you make a good point. I do the same a big bee or bug hits me i almost have a wreck sometimes trying to dodge it. Or when it does hit me I am thinking dang i bet that stings if I didn't have a helment on.

I agree 100% on your signature. :thumbup:

Actually that is from the cable that is hooked to something. That cable is denting the trailer from the force of whatever is trying to pull it and the weight of the truck. In the position the truck is in I think it would be pretty hard to push a transfer truck side ways with a 53' trailer on...

LMAO I can as sure you one thing someone lost there CDL and lost there job that day. O by the way today I was on a busy busy 4 lane road. I was in the slow lane doing the speed limit. A car length in front of me in the fast lane grandma doing the same. Right beside me a trucker with no trailer...

I do the same as marinafazer when I approach a light I shift to 1st and brake to a stop at the same time. I also plant both feet then if I want I lean on one leg. I figure it also helps a Marinafazer also said I am 6-3 and I am sure that helps for this situation.

Hmmm I may go to kerosene if the WD does cause the lube to sling off. I cleaned my first chain with gas by spraying the chain as I turned the sprocket. Then I rinsed the chain good. Then I toweled dried the chain and then finally lubed it. The amazing thing was I didn't have any lube slinging no...

I agree with Doorag (David). I wear full gear and my steel toe boots on my commute to work. I work in a Engineering Building. I did wonder some if I would get a call into the office for wearing gear in. But I just decided it didn't matter. I would hope the place you work would applaud safety...

So is it okay to clean the chain with WD-40 and then apply the lub? I ask cause I don't keep kerosine handy but I do WD-40.

I know you may laugh your tail off and its okay but I have only been to Greenville I believe 5 times and that was just to visit a bro that lived there for a short time. About bike week and bars clubs etc.... I have never got into those kind of things. I am really close to home. I do like to go...

Guys with this fast approaching winter and me being a newbie rider for the most part. I have a question. Do you guys ride in the winter? If so how do you wage the danger of ice? You know as well as me it doesn't have to rain and freeze to be ice. Buisnesses and ppl with sprinkler systems love to...
