Motorcycles - April 2007

I know nothing about motorcycles, but saw this nice Suzuki S40 and was really impressed. I know 250 cc's equals a top speed of about 70 mph. What does 40 ci mean???

one guy claims he has had one 14 years with no problems.....Call CNN , this is truly news.I ride with several groups and most times the Harley will have problems and cause delays. Last trip the new Harley quit and had to be flat bed towed back.I gave the fine gentalman a ride home on my HONDA.If Harley's are so good ...why , when people fix them up , do they change the motors to a after market one ???And why if Harley's are so great , are there so many used ones for sale ?

I have looked at motorcycle shops online and automotive and paint stores online but still can't find reflective paint (like they have on stop signs). Any ideas?

I have a 2001 Kawasaki zx7 engine with no spark. I am trying to use it in a mini sprint car. The engine turns over from the starter but I have no spark at the plugs. The coils & coil pick up both read good. The dealer tried a new coil and that didn't help.We do not have the starter lockout switch, neutral switch or engine stop switch connected. Any suggestions?

Thanks

The rear sprocket on my '81 Honda CB400 has about 1cm of loose rotation compared to the static wheel. Is this normal or should it not move relative to the wheel? None of the bolts are loose. I am aware there are rubber dampers in the wheel hub, could these be worn?

I have a 2002 Honda Cr-125R, and it has an aluminum frame. One day I was cleaning it, and decided to use Grease Lightning. Well, the chemicals streaked the aluminum in the frame, and i was wondering, is there anyway I could get it shiney looking again, and not have the streaks in it? Please help!!

This is a picture of my husband's fathers bike. We dont know anything about it and i dont even know if it is possible to know what kind it is just by the picture. But i figured someone out there may know. Any thoughts? This picture was taken around 1980 so we know the bike has to be pre-1980...

Ran over a nail on Friday on my way to work and need to replace the rear tire. The local shop only has Dunlop in stock in the size I need. Is it safe to put a Dunlop on the back and keep my Bridgestone on the front?
