    ProTip: Don't try to steal bikes at The Dragon.

    http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=618432&ref=nf If there's one thing you can count on at Deals Gap - other than bikes, cops and sports cars - it's cameras. Welcome to internet infamy. I wonder if 4Chan has any interest in a couple of aspiring motorcycle thieves.

    2000 VFR 800 won't crank

    I need diagnostic help. Last night I went to start the VFR and it wouldn't crank. At first all the instruments lit up just fine, then went dark a moment later. The clock on the dash works, but only when the ignition is in the OFF position. I put the battery on the tender and within a couple...

    Track Stand Question

    I have a chance to buy a rear track stand that was used on a CBR600RR, but I'm not sure it will fit an SV650S. It's a good deal that I would hate to pass up, but if it's the wrong size then it's pointless to purchase it. Does anyone know if the rear stand will work for the SV? The SV does...
