I am not sure about facts but read a story on the news about a nasty accident. One of the names is my fathers coworker. My father loves the guy, I cant bring myself to tell him about what happened. I never met the dead guy but my old man said he was a stand up guy. Hope tbis doesnt kill my...

Finally happened, bike got knocked over while parked in front of local bar. Only damage I see is broken clutch lever arm. Pissed me off some but not too much. Thinking about trying to find perpetraitor but dont hold too much hope. The big thing is it crushed a hot sauce container for my...

Well this is what happens when you check your tire pressure, you notice the tire is cracking. No not the old crusty tire but the one with a 1514 date code that you had put on in February and has under 1000 miles. What do you people think? The tire is an Avon Roadrider V-rated for when I...

Well the sportster fucked up and stripped out the final drive pulley. The fifth gear output splines look fine. The stock pulley is 29t which is pretty torquey but I am thinking of going +1 to a 30t pulley which will lower the rpms some make the bike more tolerable on the highway. Any tips or...

I swear my bike is trying to do me dirty. I went to go for a ride the other day and I looked down and noticed something missing, the rear axle broke where the nut washer and lockwasher go, they were completely gone and missing and the hollow axle broke at the threads. The only thing keeping...

This damned bike is putting me in the poor house. I need a 29t front sprocket for a 1997xlh. The damned old pulley completely stripped out but didnt touch the output splines. If you have one and want to sell either pm me or email at: benzbaron at gmail dot com. Thanks folks.

I posted this in parts wanted with no success so I will try this here. Ok I have a sportster and need either HD41321 or Jims 2260 to bust the belt pulley nut so I can replace the lockplate and nut. I have the parts and would like to either buy or borrow the tool for a week, I can bribe you...

I was riding through san mateo on my way to burlingame yesterday, got new city bike magazine and I'm gonna tear the town apart. Right when I pass draegers the big bad oil pressure light starts flickering. Fuck, I limped back to gas station and got a bottle of oil, put 3/4 quart of oil in and...

I need a tire mounted and would like to support a barf sponsor. Get on the barf yellow pages please.

The other day I saw a rear tire for the buell on craigslist, v rated for when I wind the blast to 149mph. Well I contacted the guy and he was nice enough to offer to deliver it. I give him my address, said he got off work between 8 and 9pm. No issue, I email at 9.30pm and he says he will...

I was at the bar tonight sporting my favorite Buell t-shirt, and a fellow asks me about erik buell, I mention he designed the fxr, etc. Guy said erik buell stole the evo engine design from porsche, I know porsche and the MoCo worked together on the vRod, but what the fuck. The evolution motor...

The other week I was dicking around on the exhaust of the buell and happened to bump into rear tire and felt noticeable movement. Got wheel off ground and fell the movement and clunk. I ordered a set of all balls bearing and just pulled the old ones out. One was really bad, the other just a...

Well I got a new bike and it has an oil leak from one of the oil lines. I'm gonna get some rubber hose and fix the problem. The bike uses Oetiker clamps which are a pain in the ass to remove but work well, I have the special pliers to install them. What clamp type do you think I should use or...

Well I'm replacing the front tire on the punky buellster and bought a set of big balls(all balls) steering head bearings. I watched some videos online and they say if the steering is smooth and free it is good to go. Grabbing the forks the bearing feel free but seems light. I didn't feel any...

Ok another day another problem. I changed the brake pads last week and notice that the rear brake caliper is rattling driving me more crazy than I normally am. I pulled the pads and the pad pin is a bit beat, but not too bad to use. I notice that the caliper with pads installed has about 1/8"...

Well I might have learned a lesson, being a cheapskate I found a "new" tire on ebay for $55 shipped, sounds good right? The tire shows up and is in a huge reused cardboard box, well don't judge a book by its color. I pop it open, man the mold release has turned opaque so its a bit older, no...

Going East on Hillsdale yesterday around 6.30pm I'm approaching the Hillsdale to El camino interchange right near the mall and barnes and noble and I am splitting to the front of a few cars and see the light turn green. I love hitting the caltrain underpass hard, it just amuses me. I get past...

I'm thinking about getting a new bike and want my own bathroom and could go trans. No joke though, anyone know about the Honda Transalps? What I see is they are a niche bike and look to be kind of pricey but they look pretty cool and should be reliable. All I care is a reliable bike. Thanks folks!
