Changed the front brake pads on my 1000rr and noticed the left side was ~20% more worn than the right. When I was done, I noticed (or thought I noticed) a slight tug to the left when testing the brakes. Is this a thing? Is there need, or a way to adjust/proportion the application of the pads...

Carls Jr is going to abandon the sexy burger adds. I know they were over the top but I still liked them. It may be a bad move considering the only other burger commercials i can remember are Jack in the Box because they are funny.

Finally good new about a school shooting where the only casualty is an ex-student who came to shoot up the school. The brief exchange between the suspect and an armed school resource officer ended badly for the suspect. Will it be covered on every news program for days? No.

Noticed left blinker would only work if held and right blinker actually turned off the right running light. Took the blinker assembly apart and found the conductive grease had turned to glue. 1/2 hour of disassembly and cleaning. 1/2 hour of greasing and re-assembly and all is well...

Has compassion for the homeless and tolerance for everything brought us to the point where shtting on Bart is the new normal? IMHO the lack of shame, the reticence of the public to get involved and the removal of any expectation of civilized behavior, is causing us to devolve. Starting to...

What Google? No 911 commemoration? I am disappoint.

Did you order the Brown chicken or the Brown cow? cmon, it is required....

I have inherited somewhere north of a dozen guns from my fathers collection with the complication of them being located in Texas, (Pre-Jan 2015). They were legally registered to him in Arizona. It appears that the rifles are exempted from ffl requirements but the pistols will need...

First time to The Junction in six months and had a very unexpected experience: I ordered a three cheese pizza, nearly the cheapest thing on the menu. Expecting a cardboard discus from the freezer, what came instead was damn impressive. The sauce was not bitter, the crust doughy and the...

Finally some bay area freeways are getting another lane. But will these new lanes be used to relieve gridlock for average motorist? No. The additional lanes will be used to cater to special targeted groups and those who will increase the coffers of State Government. The greatest good to...

New in the bag, rear wheel bearing, p#93317-43580. $27 retail. Will trade for a cup of Philz coffee, Berkeley store. You don't have to stop and chat...

On my 2007 CBR1000rr, after a wash the tachometer started to flutter then go pretty much completely crazy, up to redline etc. After 15 miles on the freeway it started to settle down and finally ok, except for big bumps in the road setting it off momentarily. The bike is running fine and no...

Noticed my F4 will need tires again shortly and am looking hard at another set of bt016 pro's for it. But before I do does anyone have something bad to say about these tires or have a better choice. Some facts: Won't be in the rain. Won't be on the track. Aggressive street riding 80% hwy 9...

Last night's shooting on WB80, near San Pablo Dam Road, is the 3rd in 2 months. I've seen nothing in the local broadcasts about the 3 being related, but read that CHP has said the victims were "Targeted." I hoping it is not a freeway sniper doing the Targeting...

The local suspension Genius set up my CBR600F4 last week; the best $40 I have ever spent on a motorcycle. I did not mention that that bike gets about 40% commuting use, consequently it completely rips up mountain roads but is a little too harsh on the freeway. I'd like to smooth out the bumps...

I was just starting to like the new Colonel Sanders commercials with Darrell Hammond, particularly because he seemed like a slightly demented version. I saw the first installation of Norm McDonald - Colonel Sanders, straight up boring.

Sprayed Simple Green on my pristine windscreen and it streaked :( Anyone successfully get the streaks out of a windscreen ?

My RF1000 is pretty scratched up after 5yrs use and I've been noticing that newer helmets, RF1100 and 1200, have more viewing area than the older ones. So after a little homework I bought a CL-17 and used it this morning, very impressed! It is only a tick less comfortable, which should improve...

My wife was rear-ended on the off ramp to Gilman St. in Berkeley last week. Instead of stopping, the perpetrator sped off, but not before my wife got 5 of 7 license characters: (7GYL3 - - ). Along with the description of a green sedan and a Caucasian man with dark hair 20 to 30 y.o. driving...

So I just bought a Museum Quality copy of a 2000 F4 and want to insure it for theft. The problem, of course, KBB is $2400 and it would probably cost twice that to replace it if you could ever find another one. Any insurance co let you choose the coverage amount? Maybe I should get my "Old...
