    Sticker Removal - Level 3

    by "cheapo" do you mean the "tribal" design stickers which came stock with the bike? i would love to see those go...but they arent really stickers. they are more like iron-ons. i bet they wont come off.

    4000 mile check-up

    just last week i took mine in for its 4000 mile service. when i called ahead to schedule it, i was told the service was "about 320 (us) dollars" i decided on the service because i know they adjust the throttle bodies, and that is something i cannot do on my own. when i got the bike there, i...

    no eliminator for me. i appreciate how a bike looks more with its fender in place, and turnsignals where they should be, operating clearly as designed! a very graceful compromise is the rear fender on the new r6. with a smooth undertail and this graceful ladder-type support holding the small...

    Body Weight vs. Shock Setting

    getting back towards the op- when i look at the top of my rear shock, i see a crown with numbers on it. since i have not made any adjustments to the shock, do i assume it is factory set at number 3? if it has been adjusted, where does the number it is adjusted to appear? more directly, if my...

    Ohline Shock Install

    Re: Ohlin Shock Install yeah, it would be nice if the reservoir could be seen by the general public, a pay off for the cost, hard work, and discreet good taste you have. i sent a quote request to the same company, lets see what happens!

    Dumb question. How often do I lube the chain?

    all that said, the object of keeping on the chain lube/cleaning is to make the bike operate as it was designed, ease shifting and transmission of power, and of course to extend the life of the chain. so how much does a new chain cost anyhow? and what is a short life for a new chain, and what...
