    Anyone using Plasti-dip????

    Re: Plasti dip experience, anyone used this stuff on fairings? You might want to try vinyl wrapping as well, if you want a non-permanent solution.

    custom LED foot pegs???

    Those 5mm LED's can only be so bright because they don't bleed heat well enough for serious light output. The problem is they are dim in the sun and blinding at night. It would be nice if you could use some proper high output LED's and have them dim at night. Not certain how to integrate some...

    Velocity Kevlar Pants Beige Cargos and Blue Jeans

    Bought these in the group buy and they are too long for me. I'm about a 31 so usually I get 32 which are a little long, but these are longer than usual. Size listed 38x32 (actual 36x32) Kevlar reinforced with pads at the knees and hips. These cannot be shortened very much. The knee pads are...

    How an Engine Works

    Absolutely no mention of the magic engine gnomes.

    Bike turning of at 10000rpm in 2nd gear.

    A long shot, but.. Is this bike EFI? Motorcycles aren't my main thing, but I see this with weak cylinder position sensors. If the position sensor wiring is flakey or corroded it can't handle the reluctance sensor signal above a specific RPM.

    have you encounter cager moves your parked bike?

    The idea would be to leave room for someone so they don't need to move your bike. Not certain what you are thinking.

    have you encounter cager moves your parked bike?

    I leave room for another bike. Usually I park at the back of the parking spot anyway so that you aren't hidden in the spot. I wasn't told to that we are supposed to leave room, I just thought it would be a good idea. I have no issue with people that don't, though. The idea that the old dood...

    Getting passed illegally

    Based on other threads in this forum, crossing a solid yellow to pass in Ontario isn't illegal. It might have been illegal due to the proximity of the intersection, but the yellow lines are more suggestions than anything. I'm not certain what the issue is here. People pass each other. It...

    Best motorcycle GPS

    They use a capacitive touch screen. Whether your gloves work with an iPod or not is based on how conductive your glove is at the finger. Some gloves work better than others based on how the leather is treated or if they are pretty grimy. You can also buy conductive thread and run a few...

    Ultrasonic cavitation in the GTA?

    I think you are thinking metal = steel. Brass, steel, aluminium, gold, bronze, tin, its all metal. When you say not a metal wheel, use a brass wheel, it's like saying, not a fish, use a salmon. Sorry to be technical, but it just seemed humorous.

    Tail/running light issue zx6r

    If you don't have the time or ability to track back the issue with a multimeter than just send it up to Frekeyguy or some shop. All of the major points here have been covered already. If you want to figure this out yourself, start checking for actual power along the line from the fuse to the...

    Tire Temp, and Weaving

    Is that a reply to me? I don't understand. Original post is "See many people weaving trying to put heat into their tires before hitting ramps...", which isn't anything about racing or track riding. Taking racing completely out of the picture makes everything in the chart irrelevant except for...

    Tire Temp, and Weaving

    This article is specifically geared to racing and tire warmed tires. The article actually shows significant to nominal extra heating when weaving on non-preheated tires, so it actually shows the opposite to what the OP wants to convey. The difference is 7 degrees on the one entry. What the...

    Stator Cover Nightmare

    Third on the JB Weld. I had a side cover on my ancient old XL500 that broke. It was impossible to find a replacement. JB welded it and it lasted for years.

    Is this the exhaust??

    It's because it's a 4 cylinder engine. The new CBR250 we get here is a single cylinder. EDIT: Post ninja'ed.

    power commander 3

    In some cases, yes. Mine is the same way, I can't do anything with the maps unless the engine is actually running. Took me a frustrated couple hours to figure that out.

    Bike Chain Maintenance

    I thought you'd actually be demonstrating something. Listening to someone talk about chain maintenance for 6 minutes ain't my thing.
