Must have tightened the drain screw too tight and cracked the far right bowl. Can anybody here help a poor guy out??:(

I took the 1200 duc for a test ride a month ago and have to say I was impressed. Power is everywhere and it handles like a bike half it's cc's. Eye candy factor is impressive. Everybody noticed the red beast. The 821 duc is also an option. cheers

I have 90degree valve stems as well. Did you try removing the rims off the bike to facilitate the installation of the dynabeads or did you leave the rims installed on the bike. I've never tried them but all these positive comments have me thinking about it. a Youtube video shows a guy installing...

I went at it with a small drill bit and then gradually went a size up. It's time consuming but gets the job done cleanly

Serviced my forks last weekend and while putting it all back together at my nephews Harley shop I might have an issue. While tightening the bolt on the bottom of the fork leg my nephew thought it be a good idea to use his air gun. Of course the gun forced the dampner rod to spin . In the manual...

Not difficult at all to change. I followed Pats Fz1 site found here ; http://www.cartestsoftware.com/fz1/whitegaugegraphics.html It only got complicated when the new faces didn't quite match up exactly with the OEM. I'm getting another set of faces from the eBay seller

I can't imagine they come that small but i'll check it out

Got my new cluster gauges from Poland today and quickly set into installing them. I figured I try installing the speedo face and see how that goes. Everything went well taking the old face off the cluster. The problem started when I transferred the little black pin that the needle rests on from...

That's where I keep my disc lock :)

Look again at page 33-34. Definitely not gen1. Very strange because everything else is gen1.... After going thru the manual it appears to be a FZR 1000. Fairing looks like it anyways...........................

not sure but the frame in the pdf looks gen2.........

Below is another great example of a cbx that a friend of mine built in his 6x8 mini garage. Photos don't do it justice btw.. Garage Project Motorcycles - Mike sent me a picture of his bike and asked if...

Been there, done that. Unfortunately I went down so fast there was nothing to do. It was almost at zero mph but I cringed until I picked her up and saw no damage....

In Quebec you wouldn't last a day on a bike lane splitting unfortunately. It's a "Everyman for himself" attitude here. Tried to merge into the left lane this morning and had a civic floor it to close the 2 car gap so I couldn't do it safely :(

I once had a guy in a garbage truck toss a soft drink at me BUT yesterday I was off work so I decided to go north for a ride in the hills (laurentians) With out a word of exaggeration this is what happened. I was on the 125 south coming home when I came up behind a truck traveling significantly...
