So it was 109 degrees today and my bike was in the sun... then I drove home to where it was only 70... later I went out to ride to school and my motorcycle's tank was crushed on the top, as if some great weight was put on it-- I removed the gas cap and heard a loud "whoosh" of air rushing into the tank.. apparently the tank was under vacuum after cooling off.

Now I have a degree in physics and understand why the tank got crushed because of the difference in air pressure, but isn't there supposed to be some kind of built-in safeguard against this sort of thing in modern motorcycles? Mine is a 2000 Yamaha V-star 650.

So if it is a problem with the motorcycle, what is it exactly, so I know what to tell the repair guy?

Thanks!

I had a question that is driving me crazy so I was wondering if
you can help me. This is a cut and paste of the post I was
trying to post.




Hi guys just got a 250 and was confused on properly gauging oil
through the window dealie.

In the morning (im in california so its never cold) when I start
up the bike and let it idle for a few minutes the oil doesn't
even show in the window.

Yet after I drive it for a few minutes it then shows in the
window and when I shut off the big it then is almost all the way
full up to the top of the round window.

Yes I am holding it level also.

My question is, a. IS the oil level fine or b. It is full or
c. it needs oil.

Also I would be curious as to how you guys check your oil level.


Thanks for the board its got great info! I'll add my photo of
my bike soon

I am trying to change the oil on the motorcycle myself, but everything I have doesn't fit. I do not own a service manual, two dealers have given me different answers. Can any of you out there tell me for sure, without a doubt?

my exhaust tips are pretty beat up and dented on my 2001 kawasaki ninja zx600, its a duel exhaust and i am going to put on two of those exhaust tips that you see on hondas and such, now, ive heard all kinds of different things, back pressure and baffles and such, i went to an exahust shop and they said it wont hurt the bike at all as long as i keep the pipes the same lengh or maybe extend them a couple inches. now, ive seen these choppers and such and they have just straight pipes all the time, is there a difference between mine and theres besides the normal things, will it sound like an indy car or something? how loud will it be? compaired to a harley being a 10 on a sound scale and a 1 being a scooter. im tired of the quiet exhaust and cannot afford another preformance one, Loud Pipes Save Lives ive always said. opinions plz, knowledge is power
