Thank you guys! I sent an email to BBY asking them to verify what the "r" rating was for the hose I purchased.

I scoured the posts and didn't see a difinitive answer on the question, so here we go--Got a 2004 with 5,600 miles on it currently (just bought it a few months back). Ordered the chrome quick disconnects from BBY and decided that I would go ahead and rep...

Reference point for you: Bought a 2004 r1150r w/abs with 5,200 miles, system cases, givi top case, full windshield and flawless condition for $5900. It was an Ebay auction and I believe I got a great deal.

Thank you guys. I'm going to research the site to educate myself on all the tips/tricks and then take my brother's friend up on his offer.

I'm mechanically inclined and am confident I can do many things based on maintenance items I've read here on the forum, but it's hard to beat experience. Look forward to hearing from a...

I bought the click type torque wrench at Lowes----Kobalt. After reading many torque wrench comments I was concerned with accuracy. My brother is an aircraft mechanic at FedEx and he took my wrench in immediately after I purchased it to have it certified. It was dead accurate on all tests they perfor...
