    Do RevTech Transmissions Whine While Operating?

    Like the Japanese before them, the Koreans copy something made in the US and sometimes even improve on it. If any of the gears whine it is likely because manufacturers mix straight cut and helical cut gears in transmissions, and the helical cuts whine while the straight ones tend to clank a...

    is it a smart move to buy a 1995 honda accord for 1500 dollars with about 150000 miles?

    If it really has ONLY 150,000 and it has been well cared for, I would buy it. Try Carfax on it for $20 before you buy, this might show if it has more than 150k. My mother had a Honda go 350,000 and a civic that went nearly 300,000 without major work.

    harley davidson sportster?

    Depends on how old you are and how easy you get TB. But I wouldn't get one for many four hour trips, Sportsters were never designed as highway burners but more for local riding with an occasional couple hour rides.

    What parts are exclusive to a 1979 Harley Davidson Sportster?

    The pipes and the place where the rear brake master cylinder mount, and probably the lever from the rear brake pedal and the linkage. I had a 78 and a 79, I know. They changed back in 80 so 79 has a few oddball parts, but not many. The pipes only fit 79, they bend different to clear the rear...

    883 harley davidson oil leak?

    You remove the TOP cover on the rear head, then you remove the next set of bolts, not the HEAD bolts but the ones that go through the part of the cover below the top, this is whats leaking. The gasket is a typical paper sort of thing, the replacement is a thin aluminum or other soft metal. Did...

    Is 14,700 miles alot for a 2000 Yamaha YZF600RM?

    No, that is low mileage for a nine year old vehicle. Make sure it hasn't been in an accident that involved the front wheel, it is easy to bend the frame on a street bike if the front end hits anything. Being dropped in a low speed slideout usually only does cosmetic damage.

    Kaw choses not to publish the hp for some reason, but if you look at a very similar bike, Honda VTX 1800, you find that they claim 103 or 105 hp for it, so you are pretty safe to assume your bike makes at least 95 and maybe 105 hp.

    Do my parents need a motorcycle license in order for me to put a bike under there name?

    Yes they do. Reason is the insurance company runs the registered owners DL number in about 30 seconds and knows if they have a MC endorsement or not. And they aren't going to issue a MC policy to somebody without MC endorsement.

    I have a 1985 Honda XL250R and I want to buy a new or rebuilt engine?

    Sorry but you won't find new or rebuilt, just used engines in wrecking yards. Bikes from the 80's and 90's are parted out on ebay and by motorcycle wrecking yards everywhere. It might take a few weeks, but check ebay and search for motorcycle wrecking yards in your area. The yards can put...

    can anyone help me figure out whats wrong with my dirt bike its a 1972 suzuki ts125?

    Using your diagnostics, the bike runs crappy so I will install a new head gasket, I will assume your bike will never run right. If the bike came with a 130 jet then put the damn thing back in, this isn't whats wrong. Usually, the PILOT or LOW SPEED jet gets plugged up and corroded and you...

    Is it worth buying a Pontiac (used) I have heard they are basically death

    Don't buy the Fiero unless you are a good mechanic. Even then I would think hard about it. The other two are ok cars if you can do some work yourself, I wouldn't buy a 94 anything and not expect to work on it.
