Don't waste it! Put out a craigslist free ad and someone will snag it. Too many CO2 emissions already went into that can for it to just go to waste without even being used for some tasty steaks. @ Botch: haha, I claim drunken immunity. I can point out the grammar and spelling errors in...

Judging from the chemical makeup of kerosene and lighter fluid, it will work just fine. I couldn't find if the acceptable contaminant levels were similar or not, but I'd assume that since it is a food related product there aren't many non-hydrocarbon contaminants present. It will be fine, but...

My bike is an inanimate object, for sure- The mighty warship RMS Displacement The average displacement of all motorcycle trips is zero, since they start and end in the garage. But, if you consider the Root Mean Square of the displacements, the math allows you to calculate distances...

SWIM ran from the cops once and got away with it. Split highway, cop going other direction, saw the bike going too fast, and hit the lights and flipped a U, but SWIM was already exiting and L-R-L-R turning until a handy barn was found to hide behind. SWIM doesn't recommend this, it is too...

The prototype gauge worked as well as I hoped. I installed some "oil traps" which are simply a wide spot of tube with some wadded up paper towel inside, but they ended up just being extra fluff that extended the time it took for the gauge to respond to adjustments. Here's the gauge in...

Hmmm, I talked to some of the physics grad students at my school and it appears that it doesn't matter if the columns are interconnected or not, only that you must make sure to get the initial fluid amounts exactly equal if they are not coming off a single reservoir. All agreed that even if...

You sure about that? Or are you just guessing?

I have searched essentially every thread that mentions this procedure, and I've read all the testimonials for store-bought products already... If the four tubes of liquid are not connected, then it seems like a pretty easy tool to make yourself. My plan is to get a bunch of thin, clear...

1st post, 1st sportbike, how is everybody doing today? Good times. I was wondering if anyone had some extra knowledge about the gauge used for synchronizing the throttle bodies. I found a couple of DIY gauge how-to's, but they were for Vtwins. My question is- are all four mercury-filled...
