Apologies if this is a dumb question, but I have not figured out an easy way to remove the front tire, and thought about asking if there is a better way.

The way I do it is by removing the front fender first in order to free-up the caliper pipes and therefore the calipers. This creates the space ...

I don't know on the Ducati, but I race enduro and in the dirtbike 5 mm is very noticeable in stability and cornering agility. The more you move them up the more agile but you will have the risk of inducing headshake.

Hi,

I have been trying to remove the rubber holder cup from my speedometer but it is very tight and I cannot move it at all. I replaced them around 18 months ago and they went in just fine without any special treatment. Any trick to getting them out? I would hate cutting it.

Thanks.

He is referring to Permatex copper gasket sealant not a copper base gasket.

I don't have much time to work on the bikes and can't afford to get it wrong in the first try. Thats why I use a very thin layer of Permatex High Tack gasket sealant on every gasket. It does not dry and helps in case there ...

Hello everybody. For months I have been an avid reader of this forum. All started when I won, without wanting to win, a 78 GTS in E-bay. I though price was low and someone else would bid higher. Well, neither the price was low or someone else went for it. Imagine my face, me in Mexico city and some ...
