I have a 2007 Triumph America and this past weekend I took a trip with my girlfriend on the back for the first time. I readjusted (stiffened) the rear springs according to the owner's manual. Afterwards she told me it was just too rough of a ride for her. My question is, if I set the springs back to standard solo rider and she rides like that, is there...

Hello, I have a 2006 Yamaha FZ6 and decided to do an oil change myself for the first time. It was a struggle to get that oil filter off, but I finally put a screwdriver through it and succeeded. However, I ended up striping the oil pan with the drain plug. *sigh* I talked to the local Yamaha dealer and they said that I need to replace the oil pan,...

Greetings all! My friend has an 87 Kawasaki ZL1000. This bike has Mikuni CV carbs on it. Recently, for no apparent reason, the number 2 cylinder began to spew enormous amounts of raw fuel, enough to kill the plug. We pulled the carbs and cleaned them but that didn't help as its still spewing fuel out the overflow tube and into the cyclinders. An...

AFAIK, every bike I ever rode had a wet clutch except a WWII vintage Harley. A friend tells me that dry clutches are common on bikes. Have any of you ever heard of a 21st century bike with a dry clutch? Michael

I have a 1996 Honda CBR1000F. I am very happy with it, except for one little annoyance: When I want to add power after having it completely closed, it is very difficult to avoid a jerk just as the throttle opens. Earlier, it was impossible to avoid the jerk. Since then, I have replaced the drive chain, adjusted the valves, synched the carbs and lubed...

Hi all, I have been changing the oil to the forks of my gsx-r 600 k4, after re- install it again in place, went to try it and its a big mess, initially even with the standard settings the fork looks too stiff, but under braking the front compress fully to the end of it, try to give more preload in the spring, and it's the same.... other thing it makes...

A few question for a few gurus! Only 85' 700 owner in Virginia looks like?...How are you all doing? 1) When I utilize my turn signals they will flash on all sides, however, almost everytime they will flash either very slowly, intermittantly, or just stready on. What could be the problem? I am thinking the relay flasher? Where would it be located? Fuses...

So I have a problem here My gl 1100 takes too long to drop the rpm for up shifting or generally down to idle. I have rebuilt the carburetor (cleaned and replaced all the rubber parts and screens with new, I have oiled the diaphragms) the throttle cable returns swiftly and is not the problem, the vacuum advance from the back of the engine seems to work fine...

The bike: 1992 Honda CB250 Nighthawk. The Problem: When applying the throttle slowly the engine hesitates. This is more noticeable when the engine is cold and operating at lower rpm range. Keeping the choke on for a longer period of time minimizes the problem. This problem is still present when the engine is fully warmed though not as dramatic. Moderate...

I would appreciate any advice on this. I have an '85 VT700C with about 32K miles. When I got the bike about 4 years ago there were acceleration and top end deficiency issues. Otherwise the bike ran fine. I had not previously done much work with motorcycles, so I ignored the problems for about a year before deciding to do something about it. After...

Does anyone know the correct routing for the fuel lines? Tank valve has STOP-ON-RES with 2 spogots , one for on & one for res, I presume. Each carb has one inlet. Does one line simple go from each carb to either outlet on the valve? Thanks.
