On '06 V Star 1100 I have to switch over between 125 and 130 mi. (My Hyosung 250 has longer legs). Usually takes about 3.2 gals to fill, yet its touted as having a 4.5 gal tank. I don't where the other 1.3 gal is. Must be one helleva reserve.

P.S. Yes, I'm topping off but not to the point of spilling to thru the overfill tube;.

i have a 2003 yamaha ttr 125 trail bike. its really frustrating how hard it is to pull in the clutch every time i shift gears, because i have really small hands. i know most of you will think "oh boo hoo your hands are too small" but that combined with really bumpy terrain and frequent sharp turns makes it really difficult to concentrate on reaching out to pull in the clutch whenever i shift. as a result, ive formed a habit of not doing so. i think the only time i really ever use the clutch is if im trying to slow down really fast and dont want to throw myself over the handlebars. is it really that big of a deal that i dont use it? i always thought dirtbike engines were designed to function with minimal use of the clutch (probably niave me) but then i read on here that it is actually bad not to use it!?? is this true? i would appreciate any info you can give me on this (like how often repairs will have to be made if its bad that i dont use it).

Mini Pocket Rockets Accessories Online Inc. www.minipocketrockets.com

I purchased a X7 4-Stroke Super Pocket Bike and a helmet from Mini Pocket Rockets Accessories Online Inc. on December 5, 2006. I received the bike via Fed Ex on December 12, 2006. The X7 Super Pocket Bike came with fuses and the battery was dead. I called and requested that they send me another battery, the fuse was not as important to me as the bike. I purchased fuses from an online company that shipped to me right away. A person from Mini Pocket Rockets told me that he would shipped me a battery right away. I waited for about a week and received know battery. I called again and they told me the same thing. At this point I was very angry and tried emailing them because I could not get a call through, as all of my phone calls were going to the voice mail.

The exhaust pipe is not letting any air out when you try to kick start it. Feels no compression. but, every now and then, the exhaust will backfire with compressed air only. bike will not start, but will start if you push start it. Once started it has power. it's a CR 125 two stroke. please help.

Not too pricey, but something nice still? Must be American, and not a street bike. I am looking for something more classic looking. Thanks

Here is the link. I believe its an, NST right? Is this a good brand? I was looking for a Kawasaki but was unable to find one in my price range. The guy is willing to go down to $1500. Is this a good deal or should I negotiate more. I have never rode a motorcycle before so I figured this would be a great first bike as I am only 5'1 and 102 lbs.. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Only has 300 miles on it.

My bike, is spitting the oil out of the oil cap, dripping onto the oil tank.. Also when I park I find a puddle just under the crank case...the air filter doesnt look to be splattered with any blow by, as the external parts do not have any oil residue. I am gonna replace the gasket on the oil dipstick, but I am not sure what to do about the crank case.. The oil is just over 3 qts and is not overfilled. A light light smoke comes from the dipstick area when I get on the throttle..any advice would help! thank you

Okay so this guy is selling a 1999 Kawasaki Ninja 1000cc for $2200 obo. It is in good condition besides a few scratches. This other guy is selling a 1987 Kawasaki Ninja 750 R with 24,000 miles for $1800 with also a few scratches. For a few hundred dollars more anyone would grab the 99. Why are the prices so close, am I missing something?
