    Free Dainese leather jacket sz 48

    First: this is a size 48 in Italian. I have a 32" waist and am 5'6" and it fits me nicely, if a tiny bit snugly. I wear a 'stich now because I'm fucking ollllld. Second: It's free. Take it and sell it, give it to a newbie, wear it yourself, or eat it for a snack, I don't care. Third: You have...

    2005 Mazdaspeed Miata (factory turbo) w/ 80k mi

    I've enjoyed my Miata for a while now, but it's time to move on. I've got these four motorcycles that need my love, and when I can't take one of them I now need three seats, you see... I bought this Miata because it was the Miata to have. It has many highly desirable modifications (3.63 rear...

    Free: most of a CBR954RR and a VFR swingarm

    Hilariously, this isn't the end of a failed SSSA conversion. I'd say more, but it's a secret. :D I've got the carcass of a CBR954RR in my garage that donated its front end, swingarm, and wheels to a frankenbike project. It was a friend's AFM race bike. He had a bad crash on his other bike but...

    External fuel pump options?

    I'm pretty familiar with the various cage parts, having done cage tuning for a while, but I can't seem to find motorcycle-sized external fuel pumps suitable for EFI (~35psi). I need a pump that supports about 70hp, or at least 35 Lph, which is tiiiiny in the cage world. Anyone know of any...

    Finally ready for that custom exhaust... where to go?

    The Disco Tomato needs a custom exhaust fabbed up. I need kind of a weird setup, with one exhaust for the front cylinder bank, and another for the rear. So basically two separate exhausts. Who's good? Who's cheap? Who's fast? :D

    What's your bike's cage-year-dollar equivalent?

    Because my penis is extraordinarily small, I often have a good, hearty chortle hah hah hah! when I pass high-dollar sports cars in traffic. "If only they were as smart as I am," I say to myself, "they would buy a sport-touring bike and go even faster whilst saving money!" But they do not have...

    Does anyone run the good T-hill West config (8W)?

    Back when Thill West was new, I ran the track with 7W-8W-9W-10W config. Last year all the organizers I saw ran 7W-1W ("the bump"), which cuts out my favorite part of any track in the area. Instead, it was Yet Another Boring Straightaway. Screaming over 8W aiming for a blind apex was fucking...

    Making the old owner happy

    Seeing Sibhod's comment in OVerlordI's post made me think: is anyone else here happy about riding the piss out of someone else's old bike? I bought my VFR800 from Surj at 33k, and it's now up to 65k mi and going strong. It makes me smile to think yeah, I'm giving the ol' girl long-time lovin'. :)

    '02 CBR954RR trackbike for parts or rebuild

    A friend crashed his GSXR an Thunderhill and is out of riding for a while, so I bought some of his 954 for a weird project, and am selling the rest on. What's gone: * Swingarm, linkage, wheel, etc - I took everything from the swingarm pivot back, except the shock * Front end - I took everything...

    VFR800 street parts

    Parting out what I don't need from a crashed ~70k mi 99 VFR800. This list will be updated regularly as I pull parts off and decide what I do/don't need. If it's on the list, it's still for sale. Offers welcome. I'm as lazy as you are cheap. Hepco and Baker hard cases + rack rack is tweaked...

    De-farkelization sale

    I bought a project bike that was farkled to hell, and I won't need this stuff where I'll be riding, so it's all for sale. I don't know what this crap is worth so I took a guess. Make me an offer. I'll probably say yes. Don't make me dick with eBay, please. H4 headlight kit includes bulbs...

    Little bit of custom lathe work?

    In the service of my dumb project, I need a spacer turned out of steel. I've got all the measurements, I just don't have the lathe... or the knowledge. It's a pretty simple job - a tube with a shoulder, more or less. I only need a production run of 1, so does anyone know where I might be able...

    Can I borrow your RC51 tank for a test-fit?

    (sorry if this is a bad place for this, mods feel free to move) So I've got this stupid project underway (building a V4 track toy), and I would like to get my grubby paws on an RC51 fuel tank for a test fit. Does anyone have a tank I could borrow for a day, or meet me at Moto Guild? Crashed...

    Sell me your Honda USD front end

    I've got a project that needs some lovin' up front. I'm looking for basically any Honda front-end. They're all more or less interchangeable, and I need everything from the triples to the wheel.

    First tango with a two-stroke (aka smoking is good for your mojo)

    Okay, I guess that title is technically a lie. There was that Tomos Targa XL moped I seized because I didn't know to refill the 2-stroke tank. Then there's that one time I rode my buddy's hopped-up street-legal KDX. The one I could not prevent from wheelying off stop signs... in 1st, 2nd, and...

    *SOLD* Project '74 Porsche 914 w/ Subaru 6-cyl engine swap..

    My project '74 914 is sold. When I bought this car and began the project, I was living on the East coast, had a low-stress job, and hadn't get gotten hooked on motorcycles. Now I'm in California, where time is tight and space is limited. It's time to admit that I will never finish this to the...

    CBR900RR rearsets!

    Need some for a project and would prefer not to pay $300 for some DanMotos. Anyone have some kicking around? Stock or aftermarket, it's all good.

    Noobie question: how do I stay off the racing line?

    This may seem like a silly question, but after a half-dozen track days and (what I think is) a level head, I still haven't been able to figure it out. Okay, so occasionally the RVF... decides it doesn't want to play. It happens, it's a temperamental bike. Keep in mind that I'm not going to...
