I've got an '02 R1150R with 30,000 miles and nothing but good service. No issues, all services are realitively easy with the noted exception of the gas filter. The way I look at final drive / spline issues is that up this point I have not had any costs for chain and sprocket replacement and when and...

Just got my RF1100 from helmet city. Free two day shipping and no tax. My first premium grade helmet, also. Vents do work exceptionally well, it gets hot down here in Alabama. The size ran true based on my other helmets. A feature that I really like is a tab on the side of the shield that in the rea...

I use a needle to thread some high test fishing line into the plug in a way that leaves a "u" shape on the back side of the plug that is going into the housing. I then tie both ends of the line to the bike somewhere so I can pull it back out if the plug falls inside or down beside the cyli...
