https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRCMIDILfEI This video is good and you only need a cheap soldering iron as low wattage is the key. Try it but use a mask as the fumes are very toxic. While doing some work I found my front guard was cracked under the fork brace. Im going to repaint anyway as its...

I'm about as handy as a paper can opener, but I do admire cool DIY projects. Even the ones that are just done for the hell of it like this one. http://imgur.com/a/oIZdP

This is still in the beta testing stage, but so far it's working. I was getting oil in the air box after running high rpm. This in turn srewed up the paj1 and air corrector. So I came up with this. A 6 1\2 piece of 1 1\4 PVC pipe capped with three barrbed 1\4 connectors. I drilled the so called...

Think I have committed myself to building a dyno lol. We'll have some testing to do with our supercharger setup and I think it would come in handy for sure. There's quite a bit of info about doing it all so I'll get started soon by buying some steel etc. I'll document the project as I go.

Well this is not my first rodeo when it comes to modified cars/bikes. I like to do lots of mods, and I love to document stuff. So naturally I produce a lot of DIY's. There is a lot of excellent information on this site, but some of it is somewhat spread out, and some of the pictures suck. So...

Yes yes the title makes me cringe thinking about how easy and how bad this could turn out. Anyhow part of what I am wanting to do is repaint my engine. Right now it has parts where the paint has flaked off, it almost looks like there is two different coats, ect ect. Bottom line is it needs...

Anyone did the tboost using the two diodes and the resistor successfully? I did it twice and everytime I get cylinder 3 misfiring and loud gunshots from the exhaust :bang head:. To the best of my knowledge, I did it as it should be done. Any idea what went wrong? :ummm:

Can any one help me? I have recently brought a 92 vmax and have some DIY wiring attached to the v-boost control unit which goes up to the clocks wiring loom. The v-boost kicks in at 6,000 rpm and there is no T-boost switch, so what is this wiring for?:ummm:

Someone close to me is selling a sand blasting cabinet and a powder coating system. I'm wondering if anyone does their own coating, and how easy it is to figure it out and do it properly. This might be a dumb question but can you use the same oven you cook food with to cure p/c? I guess I'm...

This writeup details how I reworked my seat over the weekend. It was really not that difficult a process as long as you take your time and work carefully. As you will see, I even reused the original seat cover without modifying it whatsoever. This mod is for those of you who, like me, no...

Wanted to put up before/after pics of my wife's first foray into the DIY mod world. She painted her windscreen on her FZ6.:biglaugh: Those of you who met Steph at Sportbike Rally will remember her "My bike will always be stock" stance......that has definately changed.

I was wondering if anybody has had experience fitting Stainless Steel Braid to hose line? I have a few ideas but I've got no idea how to fit and secure the braid. Can anybody provide a web reference / link? or general guidelines for securing braid?

Is there anyway for me to repaint my tank and fenders myself without investing in all the "pro" equipment???? Spray paint seems SOOOOOOOOO ghetto, and the surfaces are blemish free, but I can't afford to "have it done"... I'm trying to freshen the stock Maroon color (faded) and match the...
