Hey folks, Does anybody have suggestions for finding a used motorcycle in the Columbus, GA area? The Atlanta-area craigslist only has a few bikes, and the local papers aren't much help either. Thanks, Lanesplitter2.

Hey folks, I'm selling my first bike. I bought this in 1995. It had about 14000 at time of purchase, I only put on 2300 miles on it. I didn't spend too much time learning on it... The bike's been in storage/registerd non-op since 1998. I replaced brake fluid, oil, coolant (water wetter)...

Sold the GSXR(s) and no longer need these them. Tank doesn't leak, but has dollar-sized dent on the left side. Tail section needs paint, but in good condition, one tab broken, but fixed easily. Price: $130 Will separate, make offer. Parts are located in Palo Alto.

I've got a stack of worn out, busted tires, and I was wondering if there's a cheap place to take them for recycling... I know you can take them to a dump -- but it looks like they charge $5 per tire. Doesn't seem right, considering motorcycle tires are smaller. Will a motorcycle shop take...

Hey Last time i tried torquing the coolant drain bolt, I snapped the bolt. The spec is 10 Nm (1.0m *kg, 7.2kg * in). Maybe I used feet instead of inches...Any suggestions?

I'm getting rid of my crummy CD collection. Any recommendations on the best 'store' to sell them? I know of a few places in San Francisco -- but anything good in the Penisula or South Bay? thanks.

The seat is torn and needs to be recovered. I'm going to toss it if nobody claims it. I'm in Palo Alto, PM, or reply to this thread if you want it.

I'm looking for these parts to finish a GSXR600. I've got cash, or other GSXR parts to trade. I currently have a front engine sprocket cover, clutch covers, fork springs, a few rubber air dam ducts, white tail section, CDI, rectifier, 4 coils. Also have a set of 99-02 SV650 carbs.

I haven't had to get a decent set of stands for a while. A couple cinder blocks, wood and the jack from the car will do the trick. OK, it's pretty unstable, and you'll probably knock your bike over once or twice. But don't let that stop you ;)

Also included are a ton of games. It's still a fun console with beautiful graphics -- and it runs linux. I'm in Palo Alto, shoot me a pm if you want it.

I'm planning on moving at the end of the month and selling my two project GSXRS. The black and white one has a clean title and the yellow blue one is salvaged. I've been working on each for the past six months, replacing missing parts, repairing plastics, etc. The bike with the salvage title...

I've been playing musical gas tanks on a few different motorcycles and with my clear fuel line, I've noticed that there is huge air bubble between the carbs and the gas tank. After running the engine for a while, the engine sounds like it's stuttering, or won't reach higher RPMs -- and the air...

After about six months of searching I finally found my old Star Wars figures in my parent's garage. I really planned on selling them on eBay, but now I'm not sure. Right now, I don't need the money, and surprisingly they don't take up much space. I'm pretty lucky to still have them, I...

Since I'm going to be a motorcycle owner for a long time, eventually I'll have to do a valve adjustment. (and change my own tires) Anyways, I hear how dealers charge up to $5 a valve shim, which seems pretty pretty steep. So after some looking on the Net, I found a few places that offer...

drop me a pm if you have a headlight or tailsection, front seat, rear seat /solo cowling. Rashed plastic is ok, I've got a soldering iron, and I'm on a budget. Oh, and if you have some rearsets too, drop me a line. Thanks
