Re: The Frankenbike

Welcome to the forum! Don't take it to a shop anymore. Grab a set of sockets, wrenches and screwdrivers and fix it yourself! Its cheap, easy and fun! If you don't know HOW to fix it, come here and ask! Your wallet will thank you. :2thumbs:

However, when I rock the fan back and forth by hand there IS a little bit of play there before it actually spins the motor internals. At ...

Does that nh125 motor have dual rear shocks or is it an optical illusion?

Re: 5:30am rambling and destressing talks.

Sounds like you need to find a new dentist. Drills burning your lip and agonizing pain while drilling is not something you should have to endure. Ive had major work done with crowns, root canals, wisdom extractions with zero pain during the procedure and only minor discomfort in the days following(w...

Re: Spree to Eve Smile

Something tells me I should rent a U-Haul and fill it with Elites on the East Coast. Bring em back to the West Coast (best coast) and make a killing! $$$$$...You just don't see many of those around here. However, Sprees are common seems like.

Re: How can I buy from a Japan auction?

Good advice. The weather here in the great Northwest has turned for the worst so I wont be riding any time soon. Ill just sit back and wait for a good deal to come along. People tend to sell off a bunch of stuff in the offseason.
