it's broken RIGHT at the very end where the bead on the end slips into the clutch lever.
My clutch cable broke last night (luckily, about 5ft from me pulling into my driveway!). My car is currently down with who-knows-what wrong with it, so now i have no ride anywhere. The cable broke...
i use these. Much comfier than stock. It's what pretty much all the shop owners in town use too.

this is what it looks like after being ground down. I used a...
i'll try to get a pic of my brake lever up tonight. TRY being the key word as my computer is dead and the loner computer i've got is pretty quirky. if nothing else i'll just upoad a pic from my phone...
cool, xlr8n_xb.
Just make sure it's not engaging the brakes with the lever all the way out like mine was.
it's sort of a lube and sealent all in one. It's got the consistancy of white school glue, but dries into a tacky rubber. I don't know how many people actually use it, but i feel alot better about...
Know what works great for breaking the tire bead? a forklift.
That's how i always do mine. I lay the tire on a wooden pallet, set the forks just far enough apart to clear the rim and lower the forks...
i like having mine just so i can see what it collected
I don't carry, but if i did, it would be this

Ronin1: If you like slim try the Benchmade Pardue 530. It's really easy to forget you have it and it's so slim if...
I just wear some lightweight casual hiking boots from walmart. They have a pretty low profile toe, so they fit under the shifter very well. They are good stiff leather so they do protect pretty well...
This is the easiest way for me to think about it..
Take a heavy duty diesel engine for example. a 14L straight 6. it makes about 1600 ft*lbs of torque, but only makes about 500hp. That's because it...
according to my calculations i ride about 8200 miles a year. since i bought my bike in oct 07 i've put 19000 on it.
I ride all year and most of my riding is just commuting back and forth to work...
as far as bags go, i've been using some dowco soft saddle bags that i got off ebay for $50 that work great. These things can hold a good bit of weight and still be rock solid.. easy to put on and...
Is NO ONE here a fan of joe rocket?! I wear a phoenix 4.0 and it is a godsend in the summer. Breather like a tshirt and DOES hold up well in a crash. I took a little spill from about 20mph, rolled a...
One thing about buells is they definitely hold up well in crashes.
I took a little spill after some target fixation left me staring at a switchback i knew i wasn't going to make. Tried to cut the...
That's what happened to me when i was up there last summer..
I can see this from two points of view.
1. the car really should have let the bikes pass. Bikers go up there specifically to ride that...
nativeXB: i read it in sport rider a few months ago. at least i think it was sport rider..
They said in there that the angel st's are the new generation of stradas or something to that extent.
sounds like a pretty good tribute to me.
I'm running Pirelli Diablo stradas and couldn't be happier with them. The last one (rear) lasted about 9k miles and the front has about 12k on it and probably has about 1k miles left on it. Great...
I'm running Strada ST's and love them. The angel ST's are replacing the stradas and are supposed to be an improvement from what i read. When it's time for new rubber (which will be fairly soon for my...
psshh. she can walk.:D
Don't forget me!
I'm in Bryan/College Station.
Thatman: Didn't you used to live by krogers and a golf course (don't want to give out anything too specific..)?
I know we've met before and i'm 99%...
I don't think those levers would fit, icepop, as they're listed as fitting the 06-09 gsxr600.
Ours are the same as 97-03 gsx-r600, 95-03 gsx-r750, 01-04 gsx-r1000.
I can't say for sure that...
