I’m thinking of wrapping my headers on my sport bike with black exhaust wrap more for the look. Will I gain horsepower by doing this or will I cause damage to the bike?

Suzuki Announces Hayabusa 1500

Suzuki Motors USA announced today the introduction of the Hayabusa 1500, a 1498cc version of their top-selling sportbike.

“Since its introduction in 1999 the Haaybusa has been the unquestioned king of sportbikes,” said Hal Jalikacek, product manager for Suzuki. “It became apparent to us that some other company wanted to upstage us with a 1400cc bike. That just would not fly. We need to place ourselves back on top.”

The new Hayabusa will be available in dealers in May and will have an MSRP of $12,450. Top speed will be production-limited at 186 mph which can actually be reached in fifth gear of its six-speed gearbox. The new Hayabusa is also available with an optional supercharger, boosting its power output to 570 hp. The Hayabusa 1500SC will have the highest output of a

I have been having to fill up my tire almost everyday now because there must be a gradual leak in the tire. well duh but anyways I have been having to fill it up and I was wondering what are some of my options besides buying a new tire and replacing the old one. And how much would taking it to a repair shop and having them do everything cost? Because I dont know that much about motorcycles and I am not going to try to do this myself. it looks a whole lot more complicated than a car.

My yamaha dirtbike will turn over when kick starting, but seems like it has no compression. Motor has been rebuilt not to long ago by dealer(3months ago). It ran fine until i turn it off because i heard something knocking. Try'd to turn it back on and never did start. I parked it on my driveway and there was anti-freeze on the ground coming out of my bike??? Think it might be the rings,bottom/top end, water pump maybe out which cause the motor to mess up????--- and yes it had gas in it (Mixed 32:1) checked the spark plug!!!!(new one). I'am about it tare it apart but needs to know if anybody knows what it might be.
P.S I don't race it- its just a weekend toy to ride when i'am not working.

Why is it that in Ohio, everyone in a vehicle is permitted to wear a seat-belt, but cyclists can wear sandals, no shirt, shorts, and worst of all, no helmet??? Are they crazy?

I have just finished re-building my 78 KZ650 from top to bottom. Well everything except the engine that is. And I would love to put some more cc's behind her. I would love to put the KZ1000 into it but i really don't want to modify the frame. If anyone knows what engines would fit into the frame...ie mounts and size. I don't really care about compatability with anything other parts. I had so much fun i would start from scratch again.

I need a good transportation. The motor scooters sold by the scooter store is probably too slow. The electric scooter won't work because I can't keep my balance. I need something that doesn't require a drivers license, doesn't require balance, and can go at least 10 M.P.H. Fastest transportation speed gets best answer. I want it to be an independent ride so I don't want any answers saying get some one to dr5ive me because I'd have to wait for them.
