Motorcycles - March 2007

I have a 2000 Yamaha V-star 650. It has a carburator. I've noticed that when I'm pushing the bike harder (accelerating fast) then right when the rpms get high the bike loses power for a second, then I usually shift and it's okay again. It's like it doesn't like the higher rpms. It feels like it's not getting enough gas, or air, but I'm no expert so I'm not sure. The first thing i was going to check is the air filter. After that, I'm not sure where to start. I'm afraid to mess with the carburator, everyone tells me it's for experts only.

Oil starved the F4 running a highway wheelie for about a mile (no guess on speed, wasn't about to look down). I can get a 98 900RR motor and all the electronics, for less than a replacement F4 motor. Anyone know if it'll fit? I don't mind a project, just finished rebuliding a TL1000R, so I've got a ride.

Don't mind a project, I've got a 06 600RR to ride. For the $1k it'll cost, just wondering if I can fit any other motors in the frame.

It turns the tail light into the turn signals as well as the brake light. One half blinks while the other half is the brake light. The kit is made by M. D. Wright.

I've been trying to get this bike running right for quite some time. I did have it running pretty good yesterday, but today its been acting funny. The motor starts to bog down like it doesn't have enough fuel when it is either hot or when I turn the throttle. At other times, the motor will die if I don't turn the throttle.

I did add an in-line fuel filter but Its not clogged. Could the filter be too restrictive for the fuel? I wouldn't think so...

Any suggestions as to what I need to do?

when i go at top throttle, the engine will quickly die out and come back on. It also occurs when I'm going a decent speed up a steep hill. What is wrong with it? Any information is useful.

I raced motocross from the time I was old enough to walk until I was about 30 years old. I was really good at it, expert class, if you will. I have three sons and I want them to ride and race like I did, but I KNOW how it hurts and just how bad you can be hurt riding and racing and I also know it takes courage and a parent who isn't fearful for their child's life to allow them to practice and race.

Quite frankly, I am scared to death to turn my sons loose on a full blown race bike. We're talking about little 65cc motocross bikes that'll do 0 to 60 in < 5 seconds. I want them to experience the rush of racing, but ol'e Daddy here is just plain afraid to let them go.

HELP!!!!!!!! I am desperate to let them live, but I am afraid as I know how bad they "could" be hurt.

If a person installs after-market cobra exhaust pipes on his bike does the bike have to be re-jetted? I have a 750 Kawasaki Vulcan I'm considering changing exhausts.

Well I can but... I asked this question v late so just trying the same question a little earlier tonight...

I've got a full driving licence, I took and passed my test on a motorbike in 2000 but... after taking my CBT and a direct access course to pass it & ride any bike I wanted... I didnt send off my pass certificate to the DVLA to update it ? and remember at the time something about 2 years ! not sure what that was though. I rode a 600cc bike for approx 12 months, just affording the insurance but the second year's insurance was to expensive & I haven't rode since...

What do i need to do to get back on two wheels ? or what can i ride legally now ?

thanks

I'm learning to do wheelies, I saw on tv this school that teaches how to do wheelies and I sa a bar that they put on the rear tire which won't let the bike flip in case the person put too much gas. Does any body knows where can I buy it? I look for it on ebay and I couldn't find anything. Also if sombody knows where can I buy a stunt cage that we'll be great. Thanks
