    Where to get good moly grease (6o% moly or more)

    Turns out London is a moly free zone. The bike shops don't carry it. I'ved called just about every auto parts and speed and custom shop in London, including the numerous ones specifically called out on the molyslip website. Nada. Hully Gully the Honda Powersport dealership only had "suzuki...

    Attnention: Ever been down a dragstrip??

    No lights required after dark in St Thomas. I have an old Ford hubcap where the headlight should be and they let me run.......

    Afraid I"ll Hate my rental bike :-(

    Bingo! The Squeeze and I rode 2 up all over some Greek islands on a 100cc twist and go and it was a hoot. (not sure if riding in shorts and t-shirt instead of the standard ATGATT had anything to do with it....) Edit: this was supposed to be a "reply with quote" attached to something along the...

    Cruisers and sport bikes

    I agree with TS here it's the pace that's important. That said I don't like group ride much unless it's a small group of riders I know and trust. Too often group rides are done "couch parade" style with a slew of inexperienced riders who think that's just a cool biker thing And they don't...

    Headsets or not???

    Rye , That fairing does nothing to protect your hearing unless you ride laying on the tank with your head behind the screen, and even then I doubt it helps much. Trust the experienced posters above and get some plugs. You get used to them pretty quickly and they make a huge difference. PS -...

    1986 FZ600 "Black Yamba"

    That first pic of the ground out sockets takes me back. I have about three different versions in a toolbox drawer made for different bikes over the years. That said I've never sacrificed a socket. I usually scrounge a suitable diameter of pipe. Also if like me you own a lath, turning an internal...

    Where to get good moly grease (6o% moly or more)

    Thanks all for the info. According to the molyslip website there are two suppliers just down the street from where I work. It says AS/65 is an engine assembly paste but it has the required moly content so I think I might try that.

    Headsets or not???

    Yes something that plugs into the cig lighter, clamps the pod in place and then has a cable that goes into the pod. So probably not bluetooth???

    Cutting Your Exhaust Pros & Cons??

    Yes, Please make your bike louder so that the entire motorcycling community can looked at in a more disparaging light. Loud pipes risk rights.

    Dear Yamaha...

    I liked the list of "additional features". Essentially none. I wonder how well the decompressor works. Kicking big singles to life is only so much fun. That's why I sold my XT350 and bought the DRZ400 with the easy button.

    Replacement Fairing "Plexiglass"?

    I would say go for it. I can't believe that it would interfere with tinting later.

    Headsets or not???

    A little help for the technically challenged. In the car we listen to the ipod by tuning into a particular radio frequency and then the sound is broadcast through the radio. Is that an indication of bluetooth?

    Alternative way to strip paint

    +1 I bought aircraft stripper from an aircraft refurbishing place and it would not touch the clear plastic coating on aluminum side cases and covers.

    Replacement Fairing "Plexiglass"?

    "beyond repair" are you sure? Before you go much further try some Mothers mag and aluminum polish. This stuff is amazing and it did wonders on the hazy windshield on my snowmobile.

    Headsets or not???

    I started this thread and have been through it a few times. Sena keeps coming up as the one to beat. My only question is can I hook up/in the ipod to listen to podcasts? Thanks

    Speed on Rogers gone. How to watch supercross?

    Funny the guy with bad english just called from Rogers asking if I was happy with the service. When I said I wanted the Speed channel he said it was about to be discontinued, but he couldn't say what would replace it. Effing Rogers the definition of a love / hate relationship.
