  1. i failed to read the article carefully and fully and think i've been pranked.
  2. oh no, it's a shame they're irresponsibly peddling snake oil. the answer isn't in any pill.
  3. i am no cleverer than our terry, but i make float level gauges for different bikes.........
  4. that's been my motto since forever.
  5. many racers prefer the lower friction of a ball bearing setup that provides more sensitive feedback of front tire traction. found this out when talking with factory team mechanics at an AMA race.
  6. not all that common really. the volatile parts of fuel deteriorate, and carbs will clog and grow oxide crystals.
  7. best thing is to follow directions in the honda owner's manual to drain carb float bowls for storage periods.

  10. misalignment there is a sign of a crash or heavy tipover.
  11. that's right ! acid in old oil can eat bearings. i've seen it in person.
  12. ^^ obviously, i made the same mistake twice, not a good sign to foul things up bass akward. sorry for any misinformation.
  13. if you lean the right side of the bike against a wall or something suitable there's no need to drain the oil. often, the only things required to fix a wonky starter clutch are 3 small, cheap springs, easily replaced. be careful not to loose the shaft and fat washer from the idler gear assembly.
  14. yes, remember the DN-01 ? (Do Not buy 1)
  15. our man, grum, is the best electrickal fixer i've found on ANY bike forum, and we're lucky to have him.
  16. ^^ same here. thank you for your VERY GENEROUS contribution !!!!
  17. probably too many lemon law claims ?
  18. just like me, weak eyes.😆
