And if you are on an epic cross-country journey, and your bike develops a small coolant leak, you're going to have a lot of fun trying to add any coolant while trying to nurse it home!

Well this was a pretty easy repair.
WHY did they arrange the filler cap under the fuel tank? To top off coolant you need to remove the tank??
I bypassed that "engineering" and removed ho ...

Got it - Muchos Gracias!
Yup I was looking in there and had a thought I might be able to pull it off that way. First I need to get the rest of the bodywork off, which is a job in itself! Geeze there ...

Quick question guys,

The VFR had all the rear lights in a ...

Hi all,

Excuse the ignorance please; this bike is completel ...

I am assuming you meant GD-570?

Hi all,
New here. I have my friend's 1996 model K1100rs that I am trying to do some maintenance on. The shop gave her a list of items needed, and the rear seal was on the list. However, it is not obv ...
