    I have to replace the voltage rectifier on my xv750 (1992) and wondering if this is something I can do easily enough or is there more to it than just replacing it. Any advce is appreciated. Thanks

    You should be getting around 50-59 I think.
  4. Whatever works for you is fine, safety is the main thing. Once you have more miles it will get easier, no rush just enjoy the learning.

    Welcome Matt, the suggestion above seems pretty accurate to me. Enjoy the roads my friend.

    You can find pretty good advice here. It is for cars for you get the idea.

    Just great
  10. Nerves and silly mistakes I would say. Anything else would differ for each rider.
  11. I second that.. good luck fella "lifesavers", I could not agree more. As for the bike to get once you pass, I would say don't over do it. There is nothing that states you have to go crazy and get a monster, pick something you can handle and it not going to give you those back issues. If you are looking to spend thousands on the bike then hiring a few bikes for the day will not break the bank and give you a great indication of what you are looking for. once again.. good luck
  12. not my type but can certainly see the work you have put in, congrats on a job very well done.

    My wonderful girlfriend and I had been dating for over a year, and so we decided to get married. There was only one little thing bothering me. It was her beautiful younger sister. My prospective sister-in-law was twenty-two, wore very tight miniskirts, and generally was braless. One day 'little' sister called and asked me to come over to check the wedding invitations. She was alone when I arrived, and she whispered to me that she had feelings and desires for me that she couldn't overcome. She told me that she wanted to make love to me just once before I got married and committed my life to her sister. Well, I was in total shock, and couldn't say a word. She said, 'I'm going upstairs to my bedroom, and if you want one last wild fling, just come up and get me.' I was stunned and frozen in shock as I watched her go up the stairs. When she reached the top she pulled off her panties and threw them down the stairs at me. I stood there for a moment, then turned and made a beeline straight to the front door. I opened the door, and headed straight towards my car. Lo and behold, my entire future family was standing outside, all clapping! With tears in his eyes, my future father-in-law hugged me and said, we are very happy that you have passed our little test.....we couldn't ask for a better man for our daughter. Welcome to the family.' And the moral of this story is: Always keep your condoms in your car

    Hope the overtime comes quickly and pays lots for you. I am by no means great with mechanical problems but figured I would throw in. Perhaps the valves are the issue here, perhaps they need seating correctly (if that is the correct term). Like I say just my 2p worth. Good Luck R
