One check you can do to see if there is a "key-off" drain is check for amperage and it is fairly easy to do... Find a digital multimeter with a 10a setting and select that, now disconnect your negative cable and touch the positive (red) probe to the negative (black) cable and the negative probe to t...

Very interesting Scar. Is that a Weiand 144 mini blower? (looks to me like it). If so, thats gonna be one hell of a ride once all done. A friend of mine put a 144 on his 355 chevy and Weiand cautioned him about spinning it up too high, they said maximum rpm for the engine shouldnt exceed 6500rpm as ...

Looks good to me. :D If you want to spice it up a bit, how about some black flames hatching up from the black underbelly? Might look good, of maybe a logo or two (in black to accent the underbelly) But you know what I think would really set her off? Look into my thread about polishing the rims, thos...

I would unhook the main switch block and jump across the pins (check a wiring diagram first) to see if you can get some lights atleast, then you will know if the switch went kaput or not....

Outlaw, if you are looking for a comfort/speed demon bike, look at the Kawasaki ZX14 before the busa, from initial drag results in my area, it is stomping the busa into a mudhole...

DANG!!! I didnt know Hondas leaked like Harleys, look at the HUGE oil spot under it LOL (yes I know it is a mat to protect the floor)... Being 6 yrs old and less than 400 miles, it is a sweet bike still, but was it stored properly? Would the carbs be junked up? Is the battery toast? I know it is ins...

That is pretty cool and he definately put alot of time into designing the whole thing, looks as if even the tiny fingers are posable. Jim, yes, 1/8th scale drag racing would be cool, I am also a R/C nut and always have been. If your buddies are scratch building them, cool, if they are looking for a ...

He's a COMPLETE idiot!!!

Ok, I went riding tonight after work (been awhile and it was nice tonight), met up with some guys at the gas station in the college and started rolling. We had this fricking moron that would split the lane on every red light and pull a wheelie between me and the guy next to me. Sorry, but I finally ...

Brake squeal

Ok, I know what is causing it, but it wont go away, I have sanded the pads, cleaned off all the dust, tried everything, but the last few feet of every stop, "squeeeeeeeeeeeeal" it is actually starting to piss me off (the only way not to get it is just stop with the rear brake). And the dust build up...

On the up and up from what I have been told, read and seen, the wave rotors do disipate heat better than stockers and they have less fad, plus they are supposed to be lighter... If you can afford them, get them, but I dont feel the need personally for them as the s...
