All 29- Oil Fiter Options For The Honda. I had my valve check done at 20K. I know some folks here have strong opinions on the need for one inside of 100K, but that's a different thread. My problem here is he used K&N oil filter when he put it back together.…
- Usb Power! Nope. The lightning cable for the iPhone 5 is 2.1 amp and older auto/ USB adapters that operate at 1 amp won't light the charging indicator. Looking at my original iPhone 5 charger "cube", and the tiny little gray…

- New Rider Tips I was reading SNOOPY's thread titled "New Rider" and the topic around seat height made me think about some of the mistakes I made when I first started riding not too long ago. Majority of my mistakes were made with zero…
- thoughts on your 6th gen R/W/B with ABS.... I have the ABS and needed it 3 weeks ago. I was going south bound on the 110, just barely entered the carpool lane near USC when a guy cut in front of the Toyota Corolla ahead of me. The Toyota overreacted with the…

- Buddy Dropped My Brand New OEM Side Case... I bought a used red top case, and had my paintless dent remover guy repaint it to match my bike for $100. The match was perfect, and he used environmentally friendly water based paint.
- Powder Coating rims. Unreasonable $. I took the wheels off, removed the rotors, but didn't have to take the tires off or press out the bearings. $300 (tax included) to "un-bork" both front and back wheels, and powder coat them at the LA shop of these guys:…

- "HID" LIGHTS, and Adjustments of any headlight After reading Mikeonbike's heart wrenching story, I'm leaning toward doing something to make myself more visible. If not HIDs, then maybe some fog lights? I've also been reading about the BMW K1600GTL adaptive…
- Laptop as a do it all on a moto? I'm with BonusVFR, laptop would be difficult to mount on a bike. Take a look at the Dual XGPS150 Univerasal Bluetooth GPS Receiver. I don't know anyone who has tried it, but seems more plausible in terms of power usage,…
- Borked wheel woes Just spoke to the guy from the link above, and he says he heats it up with a torch, then bends it back with a hydraulic press. Finally, he'll fix the cosmetic blemish with paint. He's quoting me $150 per wheel. Does…
- Borked wheel woes I bought my '08 VFR in April, and it came with a slightly borked rear wheel. This summer I took a turn too wide, ended up on the shoulder and laid her down. In the process I borked the front wheel too. Now that I have…
