Dear friends, yesterday while adding water to the battery and checking the air filter, I realized that something was in the bottom of the air filter...
That metal tube is attached to a hose that goes to the top of the transmission. This is the crankcase vent tube. This means that you are getting water...
Hi, I could do with some advice re the ignition system for my A2. I understand that the set-up I have, with the pick-ups on the RHS of the engine triggered by...
My vote is; just get replacement parts for what you have. IE replace the pickups with more of the same. Replace the coils with aftermarket high output units,...
Has anyone done the valve seals without pulling the head? Can it be done, is it fun? How about a good source for valve seals? I have the old smoking on...
PS Mark if you are interested, I will sell you everything you need, all three pickups (tested) and the accels with brackets cut, formed and ready to install....

Well Gary, I have done it. It is not real fun. But it is not real fun to take the head off either. Remove the cams, tie the cam chain up so it does not come...
They have a good selection of dynas now, no accels. http://secure.mycart.net/catalogs/catalog.asp?prodid=342199&showprevnext=1 I have never tried the dynas...

Hi friends!! Here in Buenos Aires we are having very nice 25 C, clear skies and light winds from the East. I have one question ...... Lately when I started the...

This is where the dino car oil makes problems. I had problems with a car oil way back. I personally recommend Amsoil full synthetic oil either 10-40 or 20-50....
Thanks Larry!! and I will change the oil and filter right now!! What do you think of the Valvoline semiSynth 20W50 for motorcycles?? Regards, Horacio...
No great insites here. but the old saw applies. If I have a new problem remove the last "fix" I did! I don't know if that is a lot of C's but we don't have...
No title but it looks like it has some parts on it. The pictures are kinda crummy but I saw one go for almost this much that was nothing but a bucket of rust. ...
I am not familiar with Valvoline semisynth for motorcycles. It may be good as for motorcycles. I am just not sure. If you change the oil and within a few...
Guys, The wet clutch is the primary problem with using automotive oils. The RE5 group has had this discussion many times. It turns out the EPA requirements...

Dear Wayne, I started using automotive oil in my bikes because of this article (it is not short, but very interesting). What do you think about it?? best...
Hi Horacio, Yeah, it could be that it is o.k. to run some automotive oils. By the way the article you posted is very good and sounds like the guy knows his...
I agree with this guy Mike Guillory to the point he goes to. Problem is he did not address the problems that arise with the clutch. And the clutch will give...
Hi Larry, In all fairness the guy (Mike) does mention wet clutches in the article. The problem with his statements are when they were made. Whats true now may...
Guys, One more thing. The article Mike wrote was last updated in 2002. In 2002 the most current API was SJ. There was a new code added by the API since then....
Well my two cents is that here up nort the bike sits for several months and I only put a few thousand a year on her so I like to change it at least once a...
