fix

This easy-to-use flowchart was sent to me by my engineer wife. Hope it helps you as it has helped me! :biglaugh:

Figured I would try the crimp fix but I cant get the stupid soldering iron to heat the area up enough for the solder to stick.What is the secret to this ?.I have never really been good at this soldering stuff.:ummm:

I had a badly broken neck cover which seemed impossible to find a new one so I decided to fix the old and the ugly... For those who might be interested in plastic parts fixing I took some photos for the future help. First you need some tools like scissors, soldering iron, tape, plastic putty...

This is one topic that comes up again, and again, and again, I'm pretty sure it's even surpassed the "which oil is best" threads in post count. Every time it comes up, there's lots of good info, until it slips back a few pages and the question gets asked again by another new member. There's a...

Hey fellas, I took my oil pan off and big surprise my 85 has a blown dread-ring. Does anyone have the part number for the Kawasaki upgrade for that o-ring or what it's called (proper name please) so when the kid behind the parts counter gets lost I can point him in the right direction for me...

i was going to try out joelyons50023's idea i had selected a feeler and was just about to cut it, when i spied one of those copper washers used for the banjo bolts lying on the ground. it was deformed and had been smooshed into an oval. "hmmm, those washers are pretty soft," i said to...

So I've read through quite a few threads on the o-ring issue, but have yet to find a solid solution. It seems to me that it is a combination of two things - a soft silicone o-ring, and the oil pipe not being seated deeply enough. So, what would be the most reliable fix? A different o-ring with...

I understand I will need two gaskets to do the Loose starter bolt fix..... Can someone tell me exactley which ones and if there is a online seller to get what I need delivered to my door.. Thanks Wire

Hi guys, just fitted new steering head bearings and would like to buy a C spanner for adjustments. Is there a particulars size I need or should I purchase an adjustable one. While I am in at the nuts, is the furbur fix worth doing......anyone got any experience of this upgrade! Cheers guys...

Greetings, all. Has anyone here done the "Furber" fix?? I am sooooo tired of my front end shaking and wobbling all over the place with every bump in the road... and cornering really sucks too.. Any help??

Can someone tell where to find detailed information on how to do the crimp fix? I have used the search tool and can't find anything. Any help would be great, thanks.

Going to do the crimp fix soon, question is, does it get hot enough with a standard soldering iron to take in solder or do you need a micro torch to heat it up?

i was just wondering if anyone has any experience trying to get it "back to black" with out just pulling it all off and repainting or powdercoating it. black sharpie? hell i dunno

A few months ago the Max started running crappy on idle. Had so many things to do and the weather was getting cold, so I just kind of parked the bike and figured I'd need to do the shotgun cleaning the next time the weather warmed up. A couple of days ago however, it warmed up to over 40f so I...

Hey guys, I'm new here, and have a couple of questions. I'm looking at picking up a 91 vmax, 30k miles, with a slipping 2nd gear. The bike is a bit dirty, but looks to be in ok shape. The front forks seem to be dry, but it runs great. How much am I looking at to have the 2nd gear fixed up...

OK, I'm an idiot, but I can't find the "crimp fix" diy. Where is that sucker on the forum?

Alright so the real fix for the oil lights tendency to come on under hard acceleration is to ditch the POS level sensor and install a pressure gauge with a warning light output. Let's say you're too lazy to do that and you live near an electronics store, or like me, have random components...

Can you fix the second gear issue in bike by flipping upside down and working on it while still in frame ?

I FINALLY DID MY OIL "O" RING FIX LAST WEEKEND , IT WENT PRETTY GOOD ! THE HARDEST PART WAS GETTING THE EXHAUST PIPES OFF ! ALL OF THE GASKETS ( THEY ARE REALLY LIKE SLEEVES ) WHERE FROZEN TO THE PIPES , SO I HAD TO WRAP BLACK TAPE AROUND A PRY BAR & WIGGLE THE PIPES WHILE PRYING ON THEM , THE...
