A while back, I put on clip-ons which left the holes for the risers uncovered. They rust easily/quickly. Is there anything I can do to remove the rust and keep it from happening again? It's the tubes that go through the triple that are rusted, but it doesn't look like I can remove them. Gently...

Can anyone with a set of calipers provide some accurate measurements of the recessed area on the plastics where the turn signal goes? I just got some small turn signals to match my fender eliminator, but they need washers to be held in place. I want to use a 3d printer to make a custom...

Someone tried to steal my Ninja 250 last night in Chula Vista. I met up with someone who was interested in buying it, but they needed to cash a check (I was only going to accept cash) so I suggested going to Wal-Mart to cash it. While we were inside, someone tried breaking my steering lock or...

I've been looking at getting a used dirt bike, but would like some advice on what to get as I've never had one before...I've been told to get a 250cc 2-stroke, 250cc 4-stroke, 400/450cc 4-stroke, as well as a 650cc dual sport. I like the idea of a dualsport so I don't need a truck or trailer to...

My TBR with the P1 tip is a little too loud for long rides, so I ordered the P1X tip. The problem is that I don't know how to remove the old tip. It feels extremely solid as if it's bolted in place. I don't want to pound on it and break it. Any ideas?

Hey, I just found the miniseries "Long Way Round" and started watching it. I'm on part 3 of 10 and it's pretty good. It's about two guys that take a motorcycle trip from London to New York the long way. If you would like to watch it, you can find it on youtube: Long Way Round - ep01 -...

I currently have Apex clip-ons, but the sore wrists aren't worth the sporty feel. I gave my bars to Xenroth when he crashed so I need to get some new ones. Anyone have stock bars they are willing to part with for cheap? I still have the risers and the bar ends, just need the bar.

Has anyone towed their bike for any long trips? Is there a recommended way of doing it? I've only ever moved my bike once on a truck for less than 10 miles, and the anchor straps compressed my front down quite a bit. I will be moving from San Diego back to the midwest in the next few months so...

If anyone hasn't heard, here's a video of the San Diego fireworks. There was a malfunction at most of the locations and all of the fireworks were shot off in 30 seconds. I went to the SD county fair where the fireworks worked and were pretty good, but I sort of wished I would have seen this in...

This was my brand new tire (less than 50 miles on it) until someone cut me off at 60mph and slammed on their brakes because they were too impatient to stay in their lane. Locked up both brakes and left this nasty imprint of the rain grooves from the road surface. You can see how new the tire is...

I've been looking thru a lot of threads regarding exhausts, but haven't seen anything posted on the "HR1" exhaust from HR 1 EXHAUST It looks to be a slip on (quote from the description of their youtube video: "it will get rid of your cat system and bolt right to the back of your stock...
