I've really enjoyed my Tutoro automatic chain oiler since I installed it this winter. Recently though, with the warmer weather, the oil I'm using is flowing better, and I've found myself trying to recapture the sweet spot between too much (too much fling off) and too little (dry chain) oil. You...

Ok, I have a bit of an issue and figured I could use some more heads brainstorming causes. My NC has become hard to start, at seemingly random times -- I've not detected a pattern anyway. Sometimes it's first thing in the morning when it's 'cold' (it's June in TX, it only drops into the 70's at...

Well, with the recent posts by StratTuner and dduelin, I was inspired to try a Saddle Sore 1000. Doing a long, long distance day like that hasn't ever really appealed to me before. My typical long day is about a 550 mile loop of back roads around here that takes me 10-12 hours taking my time...

I thought this would be a good idea for a thread, but that might be because I tend to be a little OCD if given the opportunity :p I just got my Madstad installed this weekend, and I've been playing with it, trying to find my 'happy place'. So, I thought it'd be helpful if everyone could post...

I checked my clearances today for the first time at 9,763 miles. I know, I'm over the 8k spec, but.... oh well. I didn't document this enough to really call it a how to, but here are some bigger pics to help supplement the shop manual's 'pictures'... I'm no mechanic... I'm handy enough, and...

Not sure if this is a setting that I just don't see, or if it's a 'feature' of the website, but I thought I'd bring it up... If I log on to the site, click on 'New Posts' and read a few (but not all), and then come back an hour or two later, all the posts are marked read. It makes it tricky...

Any chance there's a member around the Portland, OR area that wants a free radiator guard? I contacted Andrew Cox after my positive experience with one of his guards on my Bandit 1250 for 60k miles. Great product, lots of finish options, excellent customer service -- they just don't have a...
