A while back a lot of people were saying that Dexi-Cool antifreeze would turn dark brown and gum up the works. So I changed it to Honda stuff in both my Bird and Wing (did the Wing tonight). The Dexi-Cool still looked like it did when I put it in over three years ago. I will keep using the Honda stuff but just thought I would put this out there for people that are still using it.

In my Wal-Mart, the price of Mobil 1 5-quart jug went down to $19.88 from $22.something. I guess I will be stocking up on it.
Man, after thinking about it, that $9.00 I will be saving on 3 jugs will buy me a meal at McDonalds. :roll:

Here is what Sport Rider Magazine has to say about it.

I have the Erion slip ons on there now and was wondering if they would take away to much of the backpressure thereby not allowing the seals to seat.
Yes, do not use the Erions. Send them to me and I will send you the stock cans. Anything to help you out. :grin:

When your're riding, only the guy behind you has to look at it.
You mean that you don't sit and just look at your Bird? :grin:

i don't clean mine at all.
Yea, but how can you stand to look at it? :bigpuke:

Don't forget the oil. :idea:

just in case anyone was curious.. it appears as though the Walmart brand Everstart is made by Exide...
Unless I am missing it, I don't see a listing for motorcycles.

I still have the factory battery from 1996. :shock: I am going to get a new one this spring. Don't know about Wal-Mart.

Less weight? Don't eat for a couple days. You will save money on food and will have taken off more weight than the caliper.

Nitrogen is lighter than air so it should decrease unsprung weight. :idea:

I never liked just using a floor jack when taking the front wheel off because it doesn't seem too stable when shaking the bike around. I have a steel beam running across the center of my garage ceiling (but you could put in large eye hooks) and I used my Canyon Dancer (used for trailering) plus two ratchet straps to tie the bike to the ceiling. Put the bike ahead of the beam, put your Canyon Dancer on, use your straps from the dancer to the beam and crank them up. I still put the jack under it. You can shake the bike as much as you want and it is really stable. I used it tonight for changing the fork oil. BTW-the right fork oil looked about like the new oil (red), the left leg oil looked like motor oil (dark, not red). The bike has never been to the dealer so Honda must have did this. Odd.

European Jetting
What's that?
-
I understand that Honda upgraded the rubber at some point but I don't know what year.
-
How much more horsepower would there be when going from a set of slip-ons to a 4into1 full system on a jetted carbed Bird?
-
I know pro stock bikes use vacuum pumps for the crankcase. I have seen George Brice say that his bike has lost the race because the vacuum pump failed. There must be something to negitive pressure in the crankcase.

And the tool you use to break the chain is called a dremel.
Won't a bolt cutter work? :grin:

On the wheelchair page, on the left are ramps for motorcycles. That is the one I like plus it is cheeper. http://www.customautotrim.com/loadingramps...motorcycles.htm

Is this one of those wheels? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=34284

Dean, why do you use CO2 instead of air?
-
MRE air shifter works just fine on the Bird.
