    I Don't Know What The Story Is . But It's Got To Be A Good One .

    I apologize for the question. I hate not understanding this new stuff but I've never done any of those front wheel wheel stands before!!! Using both brakes he would have slid at speed into the vehicle. It'd seem when the front gripped enough to raise the rear wheel, it would raise it the same...

    Dark Blue GS1100E -Close automotive color?

    My paint guy found a Chrysler color, several yrs. back, not sure of yr. or color name. It is a very close match, Looks exact except in bright sun you can see the Suzuki color has a slight purple tint in the blue metallic and the Chrysler color has no purple tint. Maybe not as close as what...

    I Don't Know What The Story Is . But It's Got To Be A Good One .

    Dang'it don't get me wrong, I'm sure not asking anybody to be as skeptical as me. But those news channels you put in there didn't take any of the videos, if they had they'd have and shown videos of people getting out of their cars to assist the rider, police cars speeding in, ambulances, folks...

    Ignition coil replacements

    Taking a chance of ruining a coil you're planning on throwing away anyhow. Drill small hole, appx. 1/4" deep where your spike is broke off. find small or tiny nail to fit the hole & make a new spike. I doubt the plug wire will never know if spike is factory or a replacement... I do realize most...

    Ignition coil replacements

    May be a help as maybe you could broaden your search. There are motorcycle parts houses where you can look up your part, click a button, and they tell you which other models use that same part... I can never remember which ones they are...... I'm still thinking about fix'in your old ones, some...

    I Don't Know What The Story Is . But It's Got To Be A Good One .

    DO WHAT??? Could anybody think a still picture would show how the bike hit the car better than a full video? That'd be kind'f hard to believe, and that many cars sitting there but nobody getting out to help or even look, nobody got out of any of the cars. Where's the rest of the video, Nothing...

    GS1000 road test

    Enjoyed watching. Though haven't rode one of those GS1000's for a long time, the memories could make me relate to everything he was feel'in, All Good. Those GS1000 seats were about the best available back then, till the 850 & 1000 "G" models got here. Like dpep, I can't say as I can remember any...

    Ignition coil replacements

    Just my opinion, put your coils back together. They originally had the wires plugged in then glued in place. Clean the holes out good, plug the wires back on to the little pin, then glue the wires back in with some kind of good glue. I'd use Shoe Goo, seems like silicone but stronger... As...

    Hanging Idle (I know, but bear with me) and different carbs

    That idle adjustment should be made when eng is completely warmed up. When cold, or on first start up of the day, adjusting the pos. of the choke is what should keep it idling until completely warm.
