  1. If it is motorcycle oil , and you have already used it with no problems, then i reckon it will be ok
  2. Me and three guys in the pub were struggling to settle an argument about who was the best lover when one guy suggested he had a sound measuring device and we should all take it in turns to record how loud our wives scream during sex. We all agreed, so a week later we all met in the pub to discuss our results over a pint. "Well I did the experiment," said the first guy, "and the device measured 89 decibels, beat that." "No problem," said the second guy smugly. "I did the experiment and the device measured 98 decibels. Now, what do you say about that?" "Not bad," I replied, "but when I did the experiment the device measured in at a whopping 128 decibels." "128 decibels?" said the first guy. "How on earth did you get your missus to scream that loud while you were having sex?" "Easy," I replied, "she walked in while I was fucking her sister."
  3. metal ended pods are worst, all foam is better and on a pipe to move em back from the carb helps,

  9. Dont panic Mr Manwairing, Yamaha used 1/2" calipers for europe and 14 mm for the states on many bikes with the same calipers on the bikes, you will never notice the difference

    The biker test

    The Biker test.. Midnight bugs taste best. Saddlebags can never hold everything you want, but they CAN holdeverything you need. NEVER argue with a woman holding a torque wrench. Never try to race an old Geezer, he may have one more gear than you. Home is where your bike sits still long enough to leave a few drops ofoil on the ground. You'll get farther down the road if you learn to use more than twofingers on the front brake. Routine maintenance should never be neglected It takes more love to share the saddle than it does to share the bed. The only good view of a thunderstorm is in your rearview mirror. Never be afraid to slow down. Only Bikers understand why dogs love to stick their heads out car windows. Bikes don't leak oil, they mark their territory. Never ask a biker for directions if you're in a hurry to get there. Don't ride so late into the night that you sleep through the sunrise. Pie and Coffee are as important as gasoline. Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of gas before you can think straight. Riding faster than everyone else only guarantees you'll ride alone. Never hesitate to ride past the last street light at the edge of town. Never mistake Horsepower for staying power. A good rider has balance, judgment, and good timing. So does a goodlover. (AMEN!!!) A cold hamburger can be reheated quite nicely by strapping it to anexhaust pipe and riding forty miles. Never do less then Forty miles before breakfast. If you don't ride in the rain-you don't ride. A bike on the road is worth 2 in the shop. Respect the person who has seen the Dark side of motorcycling and lived. Young riders pick a destination and go... Old riders pick a direction and go. A good wrench will let you watch without charging you for it. Sometimes the fastest way to get there is to stop for the night. Always back your scoot into the curb-and sit where you can see it. Ride to work-Work to ride. Whatever it is, it's better in the wind. Two lane blacktop isn't a highway-it's an attitude. When you look down the road, it seems to never end-but you betterbelieve it does. Winter is Natures way of telling you to polish. A motorcycle can't sing on the streets of a city. Keep your bike in good repair: Motorcycle boots are NOT comfortablefor walking. People are like Motorcycles: each is customized a bit differently. If the bike ain't braking properly, you don't start by rebuilding the engine. Remember to pay as much attention to your partner as you do your carburetor. Sometimes the best communication happens when you're on separate bikes. Well-trained reflexes are quicker than luck. Good coffee should be indistinguishable from 50 weight motor oil. The best alarm clock is sunshine on Chrome. Learn to do counterintuitive things that may someday save your butt. The twisties- not the superslabs- separate the bikers from the squids. When you're riding lead--don't spit. If you really want to know what's going on, watch what's happening atleast 5 cars ahead. Don't make a reputation you'll have to live down or run away from later. If the person in the next lane at the stoplight rolls up the windowand locks the door, support their view of life by snarling at them. A friend is someone who'll get out of bed at 2am to drive his pickupto the middle of nowhere to get you when you're broken down. If she changes her oil more than she changes her mind--follow her. Catchin' a June bug (or yellowjacket in your goggles or honeybee downyour shirt) @ 70 mph can double your vocabulary. There's something ugly about a NEW bike on a trailer. Hunger can make even roadkill taste good. Sleep with one arm thru the spokes and keep your pants on. Practice wrenching on your own bike. Everyone crashes. Some get back on. Some don't. Some can't. Beware the biker who says the bike never breaks down. Some bikes run on 99-octane ego. Owning 2 bikes is useful because at least one can be raided for partsat any given time. You'll know she loves you if she offers to let you ride her bike.Don't do it and she'll love you even more. Don't argue with an 18-wheeler. Never be ashamed to unlearn an old habit. Maintenance is as much art as it is science. A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up alot of gasoline. If the countryside seems boring, stop, get off your bike, and go sitin the ditch long enough to appreciate what was here before theasphalt came. If you can't get it goin' with bungee cords and electricians tape-it's serious. If you ride like there's no tomorrow-there won't be. (Okay all youPower Rangers - pay attention!!!) If you want to complain about the pace being set by the road captain,you better be prepared to lead the group yourself. Gray-haired bikers don't get that way from pure luck. There are drunk bikers. There are old bikers. There are NO old, drunk bikers. Thin leather looks good in the bar, but it won't save you from "roadrash" if you go down. The best modifications cannot be seen from the outside. Always replace the cheapest parts first. You can forget what you do for a living when your knees are in the breeze. No matter what marque you ride, it's all the same wind. It takes both pistons and cylinders to make a bike run. One is notmore important than the other. So, how many of those made sense? For me each one of those brings on a smile or a memory? Pass this on only to real & true Bikers!
