30 year old brake fluid is so watered down,it can't be working adequate. The owner just thinks it is,until on a long descent it boils and sends him to his grave. Στάλθηκε από το MI MAX μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk

We carry the same equipment! :)

He's just carrying an extra link to rivet to the chain!

The moment you start the motor you are in great danger. It is your duty to wear protective gear,respecting your body ,your family and society.If you end up severely injured or a vegetable, you will cost them hundreds of thousand of dollars.The grim Reaper accompanies us every time we ride.We...

The term kerosene is common in much of Argentina, Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, and the United States,[2][3] while the term paraffin (or a closely related variant) is used in Chile, eastern Africa, South Africa, Norway, and in the United Kingdom.[4] The term lamp oil, or the equivalent...

That is the the right order of labor to reach the pump.I did not test the fuel pressure prior to the motor swap,because there was no test port as you mentione.Lucky enough the swap worked like a charm and i got rid of stalling and heavy vibrations getting a new bike back.Vmax is higher now and...

Right!Big mistake to ride any bike on fumes ,thus stressing the gas pump with less lubrication.I never rode my bike till the canister was empty and put only premium gasoline in my nc.However it gave up on me.When my mechanic and me took out and cleaned the filter attached to the pump, the...
