Who here has ever had a oil related problem with their Bird with any brand of oil, please raise your hand.

That is what I thought too. BTW, Bridgestone bike tires say right on the sticker not to do that.

I have often thought about this. You any of you felt any difference in handling due to wheelbase change while changing gears size?

Hey, I saw them do it on American Choppers.

Complete highjack Did you watch the Pro Stock bikes at Reading last weekend? Hines went through the lights at about 190 mph and his front wheel was so high off the ground that it was on the wheelie bars. They said there is a sight bump right before the finish line. It was wild.

I read a review on them a couple of months ago in Motorcyclist magazine and they really liked them. They look like a great dry weather tire but without using them, who knows. They may be like the Avons, some people love them (get a million miles on them) and others get no mileage, the front of the bikes shakes and they hate them.

Did anyone find the answer to this? Are the Attacks good tires? Here is a link that I found:

Thanks. I have read many different ways but I'm not sure which is best.

What is the best way to bed in new front brake pads on a car or light truck in your opinion?

It was Northman doing the group thing.

I just heard that lately but I have been using brake cleaner on car rotors for about 30 years with no ill affect, so.............

My son had a real simple 36 hp dry set-up on his 600 F4-I. He cut out part of his rear fender (above and forward of the tire a little) for the bottle, had a switch to use the horn button, put it on the dyno to make a map for the P.C. that he could switch back and forth for the street with his lap top. The thing would fly but the downside was the during the race, as the pressure and temp changed, so did his ET. It is hard to win races that way.

Side the bike down the fork tubes.

Rich at a idle isn't good for anything IMHO.

Except for the first time that I changed my oil, I don't think that I have every checked it. I always get it all back when I change it and it's a Honda.

I made mine shorter using my stick welder a couple of years ago. Works great.

That is why I had the factory bearings put in my longer link.

SeaFoam is great. About a month ago, I stopped and got gas in my Wing a half of mile from my house. Within a couple of blocks, the bike felt like it was running on three cylinders. I almost couldn't get it home. When I did, I put in a half of can of SF and started it up and within five minutes, everything was fine. I always keep a can in the garage.

You never put it on, did you?

A Bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

What, you missed the group buy? Northman did it.

That's not what your woman says.

Sorry. You have to go through the tests in the manual to find which one or replace them all.

I would like to see them. Photos?
