Re: CRF80F with stiff clutch

OK. Lubed the cable. But the biggest "fix" was that I put something into the lever to "jam" it closer to the grip. That worked perfectly and cost about 1 cent. With my son on the bike and hand on the lever, I just closed the lever until he was confortable. Then drilled a hole int...

Re: Parting out a motorcycle

In regard to titling, I'll never again go to those a******s at MVA...I only go to Terry's Tag and Title. They are better than great and fast too.

Re: Pure bad luck

Hey, no-one has mentioned that the pilot was the same dude that crashed a prop-driven plane at the very same airport in 2010. Whaddaheck did the FAA do about that? Now that makes it slightly harder to forgive. :amazon:
