Don't forget you can have a shop look at the bike for you Well worth an hours labor, especially if they find a laundry list of problems

Beautiful B.C.

Transmission oil won't cause your bike to not idle And you should absolutely acquaint yourself with the idle and air screw, have an experienced guy walk you through air screw setting and you will get it figured

Don't worry about it Steve It's gonna take you forever to put 5000km on that thing

Think of it this way The foam is NOT the filter The oil held by the foam IS the filter

Oohhh that's a gooder How does a guy fill the center so you don't drop the wheel in? 1inch plywood?

If you use a kicker maybe you should stand the barrel up and fill it with water

I wonder if its racial? Does anyone know who coined the phrase? Personally I think we should call it a "Canuck Zap" from now on, I'm sure it was a Canadian who invented it

I don't think there is an answer as every head is different My Wulf pushes my ears forward, very annoying My Airoh fits like a glove and vents very well There's no way anyone can tell you a helmet is comfortable or not simply cuz it's all about fit, like shoes

4 strokes can run on a lot less oil than the manual says, just gets dirty faster I think in a lot of motors less oil can be better for performance

Whatever you do for an alarm is great but lock the crap out of everything, make one way in and one way out, I have a small man door that my bike won't even fit through as the only easy way in and out The rest is steel bars and pipes on windows and doors, bike is locked to the steel bike stand My alarm is cellular and monitored

Hmmm, 20c is room temperature Good riding temp, it gets over 30 and I'm not into riding anymore

Thanks for sharing

Did you try the bad one on your mates bike?

If you leave all of the clutch plates in and pressure plate removed you can apply some load to the plates with your finger Not enough to use a torque wrench but it will keep the hub from spinning while you hit the nut with an impact gun You need to be careful about knocking the dogs off transmission gears

Allow me to be the first to mention that this oil discussion has been well documented time and time again Perhaps search would yield a vast amount of information for you to ponder Beware, every rider has a preference and every oil is better than the last including ATF

Ya it gets corroded and combustion debris fouled, you pull it open and the spring won't let it close

Probably a leaky needle and seat, mine hydraulic locked it flooded so bad Once the plug has fouled it's junk, huck it and replace with a fresh one

I work with a lot of KTMs and they will stick the hot start open permanently if its not used regularly and maintained Maybe yours is stuck open too?

Ummm, I think your wife wants her Yoga pants back but good on ya for getting an hour a day in practicing I'm part way into Bernie Schreibers book and he talks a lot about keeping legs near straight and balance over the bike You have to read what he is talking about as its a great description

I dunno, when you are #1 at your craft its hard to call it arrogant He has a valid point of view and it's from a classic trials background Skills wise I don't think Julien holds a candle to Jason, as much as I enjoy ride the world it's kinda illegal hooliganism If it was a gun video it would be a guy shooting at stuff in a city, some people would like it and some would think it's bad for the sport

One of the guys on here said Mastic was the thing to use It stays goo so you can still adjust your spokes

Ya a coil can do many things Remember it's a thousand windings of wire that is not supposed to touch each other When it fails it touches at one or two spots so it can make no voltage or lots of voltage depending on where it touches I bet there are some shorted stators that run for years

Is it not sealing air from the spokes?

And if you take it apart, measure the free length of the springs They might be the cause of the clutch slipping
