most bikes these days cannot be said to have high mileage if all you see is 10 -20 k on them, I know of a ninja 500 with 100,000 give or take and is trouble free and runs fine. Maintenance was done regularly and all remains fine, there are many other examples of this so with proper maintenance a...

No problem, I figured it might give some structure for your analysis that's easily navigable. Hope you get it sorted out and back on the road soon.

yeah you missed the minor "cheering" I got for having the bike not start in a "timely" manner...

Was it you that gave me the push?...if so thanks man :thumbup:

Hi Shawna, hope this will help http://www.electrosport.com/technical-resources/library/diagnosis/pdf/fault-finding-diagram.pdf

Good to see everyone again after a long winter, and all the new faces. As usual no night ride for me, sounded like fun. oh, it really helps if I don't accidentally flip my kill switch as I leave...:( ...grrr

I agree with ec2010, as a new rider she's dealing with her mind telling her that things will happen a lot faster if she goes faster. She likely does not have her auto responses tuned yet so she's dealing with speed at a pace that's comfortable for her. Best to be her protection and let her go at...

Yup, but they have under body coatings plus the steel is treated as well. Bikes do not have this advantage, it's just paint or powder coat and/or stainless. Scratches/scrapes will expose the raw metal to the elements.

I think its a bit of both, focusing far as in down the road eliminates focusing near as in the kid chasing his ball in front of you, you can do one or the other but not both at the same time The reason driving/riding skills emphasize the look left then right then left again. That way you force...

Congrats...the bike looks in great condition...++1 on the brakes, then again I think you took the cake for worst brakes in use...:D

Sorry to hear about your bike femme, hope insurance treats you well. Sabex...:lmao:

very curious about the Vanson jeans and if anyone has seen/heard of crash results. They have 1000 denier nylon mesh sandwiched btwn 2 layers of denim which covers pretty much everywhere except top front and lower shin area.

yup, nothing like dragging knees and elbows at mach 10...:p

My Statefarm rate/mth is the same across the entire year. The distribution is likely as shown but that doesn't mean the rates vary per mth. The distribution shows how much of your total rate for the year is used up, thus if you cancel the amt you owe will vary depending on when your anniversary...

Many still believe this is something you choose to do and isn't something you are born with...

I agree with OpenGambit problem is that many/most Universities now have lowered their standards and in many cases are bowing to private industry. An example is in my area(IT/CompSci) where base courses are being taught in specific languages that are promoted by a single vendor. Good for the...

So much for university being the tool to teach you how to think not get a job.

I have the bt-016's(110's front 150's rear) on my 250 and like them. The ride feels more supple than the IRC's and of course the traction is better, haven't got the chance to try them in cold weather though. The bt-016's are a narrow tire for a 150 so they fit better than other brands. That...
