    Electrical connectors....

    Not sure if you guys have ever played with these.... but they're solder seal heat shrink connectors. They work fantastic. Twist together two wires, put the connector over them... heat gun or lighter. Boom it works without issues. The solder is low enough temp that it tins both wires and...

    Paint Cost???

    Looking to have a rear fender, front fender, front fender fork brace, and the faux tank painted. They quoted me about $450 + tax from my local collision max. No big damage but the occasional chip / small scratch. I thought that price seemed pretty high but I could be wrong. ( was hoping to...

    Debt, and How Dirty It Is.

    I figure I haven't been very active on these forums recently.. but I goofed up awhile ago. For starters, I'm 21 .. so not very old. When I turned 18, I was the person who applied for a credit card, and started using it wildly. Paid off the balances here and there but always had a high...

    Getting Ready to Sell

    It is time to sell the project / finished bike and redo it next year. I should have sold it earlier in the season but I was still too in love with it. Now my plan is to sell it and use the money to finish paying for school. So I'd like to share where I'm at right now. Photobucket destroyed so...

    Ambulance Repairs

    I'm not one to beg. But the company I work for has long overdue needed repairs on our ambulances. Only having 1 ambulance available for the duty crew is beating the one good ambulance to shit. We run about 1,800-2,000 calls a year or about 5+ calls a day. While we're not the busiest squad...

    Vmax Running on 3 Cylinders

    I was riding with a guy recently who tried to embarrass me in front of the group I was riding with. He was telling me that I know nothing about motorcycles (despite this being my 4th street bike, and I've had dirt bikes when I was a kid .. ) and that it was impossible for my bike to ever have...

    Carb Syncing Problem

    So.. I had an issue with the carb sync. It mainly had to do with the vacuum on Cylinder #4. I'm having an issue that the sync just won't line up. I pulled the carbs to clean but found they were basically spotless on the inside, I still ended up rebuilding the #4 carb just because I was in...

    Axle Nut Size

    Went to take off the rear wheel, and realized I didn't have the correct size socket for the axle nut... I'm wondering what the axle nut size is for the rear wheel, its a non-castlenut version on a 1997.

    Maxflow

    I've been going back and forth between replacing my exhaust or replacing the mufflers. It has awful, ugly, botched, and dented supertrapps from the previous owners. I didn't realize it really needed to be replaced until after I got under it today to inspect, and boy are those pipes rusty...

    How hot is hot?

    So.. question - how hot does your bike get? I was riding around today in 90ish. The temp gauge went up quite a bit more than it normally does. Just wondering where it should normally sit for you guys. It was closer to the red than I liked.

    Moto Amino

    There this app out there called "Moto Amino" and it is an app that is a big community of motorcycle only riders. Alternatively there are "Aminos" for other communities too. I love getting bike news on it, doing photo challenges, and using their public chats. Since I'm into motovlogging, I...

    Smelly, and stalls

    Alrighty, I thought I'd post here since there wasn't another section that encompassed this. Having a slight problem with the bike stalling out even after it is warming up. It also smells pretty smelly, like a heavy exhaust / unburnt fuel smell. I'm thinking maybe it is a stuck float...

    The State of Youtube.

    I'm sure there are other members who are very big into YouTube like I am. Big into watching, and uploading. YouTube for me has replaced conventional television. News for me is now learned from first person accounts of those who upload around their area, and what happens. Small factual clips...
