    How to clutch wheelie an 08' Ducati 848?

    It's called no guts in second gear.Your earlier post about the gsxr is why I say that,the rpm difference between the 2 is a lot.If you want to make 2nd gear wheelies I suggest doing a sprocket change-1 down in the front and 2 up in the back that should give you some more kahuna's in second gear.

    Any ideas what's wrong with my 2009 Kawasaki Ninja 500R?

    Go to bikebandit.com and look under oem parts and find your bike.Go to the air filter schematic and look for the Air valve switch-item #16126.Make sure that all the hoses going into and out of the switch are connected.That switch opens up at a certain rpm to allow more air flow which is needed...

    You must have found out what happens when you twist the throttle on 123 horses,that's why most of us do not recommend this bike for a beginner.No,there is no way to do it without damaging the motor.

    Re-Installing motorcycle clutch plates on 83' kawasaki zx1100. Need to know

    They go friction -steel -friction -steel- friction-steel and so on until all the plates are put in.Springs get tightened all the way with about 14 ft lbs of torque,not much just a little past snug.The first friction plate in, rests against the inside pressure plate and the last plate in rest...

    Ducati Monster- Do you think it's the starter relay?

    If you can turn the ignition switch on, and all the instruments and lights, light up-then take a jumper wire of heavy gauge or you could use a jumper cable and clip it on the + post of the battery and then take the other end and touch the stud sticking out of the starter where the red lead bolts...

    Mixed Positive and Negative on a Yamaha Virago XV750... What did I break!?

    Just in case that happens-yamaha has placed a master fuse in there that will blow to protect the circuits.On newer bikes the fuse is located under the starter relay or solenoid.If not there look at all the fuses in the fuse box and it will be the one rated at the highest amperage.Re charge the...

    how much would it cost to replace a clutch on a 2003 suzuki gsxr 750?

    The OEM clutch is very expensive for this bike-around 250 bucks just for the clutch.You can go on ebay and buy a barnett clutch kit with everything except the judder springs(not the main springs they come in the kit).Most shops charge 75-85 bucks an hour and for them it will be at least a 2 hour...

    How many mpg does a 2003 yamaha r6 get?

    If you are really easy on the gears,then the mileage won't be so bad.You could expect 45-50 on the highway.Pull the r's up a little and it will drop right down to the low 30's.I could think of better commuters but what the hay-if you both like the bike then have a go at it.70 miles at a stretch...

    How to wheelie Suzuki GS-500E?

    You are gonna hurt that bike if you don't do something to make it easier to do wheelies .I would suggest to go up 3-4 teeth on the back sprocket and that would give you a much better chance of doing it without damaging the bike so bad.Low air will do nothing for you until you learn the...

    Ducati Monster Starter Relay Problem?

    It could be the starter button itself or the starter relay.Like I said before on a previous post-take a set of jumper cables,hook them on your battery-turn the switch on and touch the red lead(don't worry about the black the starter is grounded) to the starter post and if it takes off that only...

    Tell me about a 96 Kawasaki Ninja zx6r?

    First thing is, the bike is old, the technology since then has increased the performance level dramatically. But if your asking how it runs, they run ok,they are pretty easy to maneuver. If this is your first bike,its a good choice,take it out ride the crap out of it then get you something bigger.
