Funny you should post this, because today I picked up a 3/8 Drive 10-75 ft-lb. Torque wrench for use on my bike. Check this forum thread.

The bike has about 1600 miles on it. No kinks in the chain, as I checked this during it's first and second cleanings. All the teeth of both of the sprockets are intact and uniform. I specifically lube the inside circumference of the chain. I'm not sure how alignment would come into play as the...

I posted on this Friday night, in the Chain Maintenance Thread, and have seen over 50 views on the thread, but no reply. Any info or suggestions would be appreciated. I cleaned my chain myself for the first time on Friday, as the rear sprocket was making alot of noise. After cleaning and...

Yeah, I'm Posting in this thread... alot of good information in here, but I've run into an interesting situation that has me stumped: I cleaned my chain for the first time today, as the rear sprocket was making alot of noise. After cleaning and lubing the chain, I take the bike for a spin...

Well, this might sound silly, but check the fuse regardless; if it blew when you first started it up after adding the new electricals.... you'd still have a blown fuse :thumbup:

Looks like you blew a fuse; #4 I believe. Depending on the FE Kit you got, the polarity of the wires might need to be changed around, or got mixed up in the first place.

I ride thru Allen quite often...

Yeah, I've tried on the JR jacket on locally, and it fits great. Cant wait! :steve:

Well, after that flat rear tire, I decided to treat myself to a birthday present: Just ordered: Michelin Pilot Road 3 Rear Tire Joe Rocket Phoenix 5.0 Mesh Jacket Icon Pursuit Perforated Leather Gloves. Pictures and reviews will be posted once I get everything in :)

Thread highjacked indeed :) lol :drool:

Thats what I was figuring. I looked all over the forums for posts on the tire sealant stuff, didnt see one and figured I'd ask. Thanks for the input guys. I picked up one of those simple plug kits, and have already plugged the hole. The bike is ready to be driven -slowly- to the shop. All I...

So, I just got back from a relatively short ride, and I notice that there is a hissing noise coming from somewhere nearby as I dismount. As I feared, I got a nail in the rear tire, right in the middle of the tread...Just in time for my birthday! Very frustrating, as I've only put 1100...

The only things I've caught sight of: Tomb Raider Deus Ex Mass Effect 3 I cant wait for 'em!

The Plate behind the license plate is for the State Inspection Sticker. I've thought about placing mine on the right side of the battery housing, but found some info on various forums that (at least in Texas) you need to have the inspection sticker both "near the license plate" and "visible...
