Cars & Transportation - 5 August 2007

My boyfriend wants to get a motorbike. I know that they can be a lot of fun but I am worried about it. I mean are they really dangerous? He really has his heart set on it and I don't want to tell him that he shouldn't get it. He also wants it because he is kinda broke right now and wants to just have that for transportation because gas for a car is so expensive nowadays. But I would die if he got in a really bad wreck. And it didn't help when both of our parents and some of our friends told us that it was dangerous. He was saying that he wanted me to ride with him too and I don't know what to do because deep down I'm really scared to. I kinda of tried talking to him about it before and I really don't think he will change his mind about getting one.

I just had the front wheel bearings replaced but it still sounds like that. The noise seems to be related to the speed of the vehicle, however, not the rpms.......

My car runs cool on the interstate, but in-town driving it begins to run hot according to temp guage. I open the coolant reservoir to replenish water and it sucks what water is in there out when top is taken off. It bubbles out of reservoir while car is running with top off as well. Could this be the thermostat or a fan issue?

My family boats a lot up in Newport and I always see 100-200 foot yachts up there with deckhands who look relatively young. Do any of you have any experience as a deckhand on such a yacht? What do they look for in a potential crew member? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Ok I bought my first car, a 97 Pontiac Bonneville last year.
Nothing was wrong with it, it drove smooth, no smoke, weird noises, etc... I actually thought that I gat a pretty good deal.
Then (per my mechanic) my oil pressure sensor went out and I needed new motor mounts... Ok, fixed that. It was riding good but soon after started running "Sluggish" all F'd up. (???)
When I start it, it idles really high, then when I put it in drive it goes down a little but idles enough to drive the car around without touching the gas ; ( If I wait awhile and restart the car it will idle normal and drive fine. Lastly, when I'm on the freeway sometimes when I accelerate the car pulls back and feels like it wants to shut off.
I apologize because this could be a stupid question to those that know cars but I kno Nadda. Any suggestions on what it might be cause it wont pass smog????

P.s when I took it to smog everything passed but the computer portion. TB sensor something???

1996 V-6 2.5 Duratec. Idle started surging then car stalled but got home. After a while car started burning super rich, then kept stalling out. I replaced the IAC and car runs good now, but stalls at stops or at first accelleration. Any help would greatly be appreciated, thanks.

I have the above car. The air didn't work at all. It was dye tested this week and the garage said it had no leaks. They charged it and the air is working now. It makes a terrible noise when I give it gas and I think this is the compressor. Am I right. Any suggestions, the garage said it is okay, but I don't think so.
thanks in advance
