    205 lbs. compression?

    No, it's like finding Narnia, and locking the wardrobe that brought you there..

    205 lbs. compression?

    If the duration of the intake valve opening is longer and the overlap with the exhaust is less, then cylinder filling can increase, resulting in more "squeeze"

    205 lbs. compression?

    Unfortunately no. It had frame and engine damage. Even both foot pegs were bent. The only undamaged panels were the side covers and the trunk.

    205 lbs. compression?

    Well, my bench-testing has come to an end with the demise of my 1100. On 21 April, an inatentive driver turned left in front of me (less than two seconds) in a 40 mph business district on an empty street. He totaled my wing and sent me to the hospital. I am now out of my cast and doing the...

    Bike Seizure for Speeding - Different Sate Tolerances

    Sorry for the delay.. 15 over the limit, and the CHP can impound your car. If you tick the patrolman off during the ticket writing process (being un-cooperative or combative), he can arrest you and have your car impounded at his descression. Most of them will give you a break and write the...

    Bike Seizure for Speeding - Different Sate Tolerances

    California: 15 over the posted limit, unless you really torque-off the Patrolman, then it could be less..

    helmet headsets for the clairion 2 system

    On a slightly related subject.. My experiment with the little VAIO power booster for my ipod was a semi- flop. Anything above 35 mph, you can't hear the music through the helmet headset, even at full volume (back to the ear buds). 2nd experiment: FM modulator from Radio Shack. It plugs into...

    My goal is to wrap up all loose ends at work this week. I'm off Friday, and we leave Saturday for Wing Ding! :Egyptian:

    Randakk's oil adaptor and Scott's SS oil filter

    Yup, I would tend to favor the up-close-and-personal approach if I saw something like that..

    No, but it costs more. You can ride all over the area, but 'ya have to buy a ticket for all the venues.

    Randakk's oil adaptor and Scott's SS oil filter

    No one's going to bother it, no more than my Magna that has a spin on (stock) in the same place.

    Randakk's oil adaptor and Scott's SS oil filter

    I just use a Fram 3614 on mine, that way I buy the same filter as my Toyota truck. :good:

    Spin-on Oil filter option

    I know I'm late to the party.. A word on filter by-passes: Yes, almost all of the good quality spin-on filters have them, and so do a few choice adapter plates. Think a little outside the box: if you need a functioning bypass, wouldn't it just be prudent to change the filter on a regular...

    Camshaft Differences

    Well, cruising through Honda Direct Line Parts site netted me the following: The parts are dropping off the fische like flies at the end of summer. 14611- is always "Rocker-A", and 14621- is always "Rocker-B" (14611-463-000, 14621-463-000). The parts have a supersession, but it seems to be...
