My travel companion has a 1200cc boxer engine and a 30L fuel tank!

Unfortunately the previous owner gave this bike a hard life and the engine needs a full rebuild as when I opened it up, there was a lot of bolts rounded, clutch nut damaged, bolt missing off of oil pu...

The mineral oil keeps the clutch plates lubricated best in my 1600 Kawasaki. Bel-Ray Hypoid gear oil is for the shaft drive this particular bike has. I currently live and ride daily in Las Vegas where...

So my fuel pump has gone bad on my 2005 ZX6RR. Nothing a little $400 for a factory fuel pump can’t fix. Anyone know of possibly a cheaper way to get a new fuel pump? If not it’s no biggie....
