Membership

Hello,

I mailed my registration form and cheque several weeks ago. Cheque still has not been cashed. Have tried to contact to resolve, to no avail. Can someone contact me, or can I get the appropriate contact?
Thanks,

Bar risers

I've been thinking about changing my bike setup a little and wonder if I could get some feedback here. I've been using bar risers (3/4") for many years now with generally positive thoughts about them. My current setup is as follows: -'13 300 xc-w -3/4" riser -stock seat -stock pegs -5'10" 200# Finis...

Ghost Resevoir

Given that Maclean is closed (to most) until May, I was thinking about tooling around on the Ghost reservoir just to fill the void for a while. I took a drive past there yesterday and saw that the entire surface is frozen over (without any snow), and that there were two circuits already in use near ...

Suspension Rebuild

Looking for someone to service/rebuild my forks and possibly shock. Have used Chris @ Pro-Action but the voicemail greeting over says he's taken a turn health wise and they aren't planning to open any time soon. Just wondering if anyone else is in this business (aside from the usual bike shops aroun...

Re: Yay! 1080P Helmet Cam Contour HD!

I'd love to hear a review on this one. I've been thinking of getting one for a few years now and this one looks like it has potential. Sure is nice not to have to buy a video camera and attach the cam to that. Not to mention how hard it is to find a video camera with an AV input. This type of solid ...

HA!!! I know a guy who still has a pair of those old Scott's. He swears by them, but then again, he's still riding a 250r three wheeler!!! Air cooled two strokes. Who thought up that brainwave?!!!

Not to sure about Yamaha, but the pumpkin uses a little oil right after a change to soak through the filters. That's why it says to soak them and fill the void before pouring in the rest. Don't know how a Yamaha filtering system works though. Either way, like Cedric says, 500ml is a lot.

I had the axle nut torqued to spec (which IMHO is not enough). At the end of it all, it was still securely in place, although with nothing to keep it torqued I can't figure out why it didn't get lost either. I guess when I get the new one, I'll add a dab of red loctite and hopefully forget about it....

KTM rear axle/spindle

So I'm out for more or less my first ride of the season (yeah, yeah, I've been busy), and after about a 2 hour boot I get back to basecamp. After a refuel, I do a quick walkaround before heading out again. This is when I notice the extreme amount of chain sag (that was fine when I went out originall...

I have the same problem with mine. Seems as though it's just part of KTM's design. The clutch will always drag, and neutral is almost imposible to find while the bike is running (unless it's still moving). I don't worry about it. Why would you ever want to be in neutral anyway?!!!! ktmtalk.com has a...

Why not try one of the Shiatsu places in Forest Lawn? You could probably get a "Happy Ending" if you wanted!!!
