hey guys, I put new bars on my bike and I noticed that the clutch and front brake cable are sticking. I thinking it's due to tension on the cable. there is a ...
I know of what you speak. I put a drag bar on my R5 about 5 years ago, and went through the same thing. The clutch cable is no problem, if you don't mind a...
So I got my cables fixed thanks for the help. Next question! I had to take off the front turn signals, I'm trying to put them back on but they won't blink. Any...
A few questions first: Do they not light at all, or just don't flash? Are all the bulbs lit? Are you running stock signals and bulbs? I have had problems with...
as of right now all stock signals and bulbs. the two rears lights come on without the front two, just don't blink. When I replace the one front side, both...
awesome! I didn't know that, just did it and everything is working great. Just gotta charge my battery and I'm good to go. No more mods until this winter when...
Well, that proves it was a bad ground. Glad we could help! Personally, I think the signals look better down on the headlight. Just be careful, if your bike...
funny thing is that my bike had to be tipped over once before - the bracket that connected the turn casing to the triple tree was snapped, then rebolted on...

so around this time last year when temps dropped below 55 degrees, my bike stopped working. I didn't think much of it (thought it was another problem), but now...
I seem to remeber this conversation from last year. Did you check the battery to see if the cold weather was killing it? That's all I can think of that would...
