What about Suzuki and Kawasaki? I filled out a credit application for a Harley Sporster 883 Low and was told I would need a co-signer. I was wondering if other brands of motorcycles would be easier to get financed.

I have a 1996 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 Classic, execellent looking bike, two tone white & grey, lots of chrome, gangster white walls. My problem is cleaning my spoke wheels, the actual rims are no problem, but the spokes give me nothing but trouble. So I need a solution on what should I use to clean my spokes and bring them back to life.

My husband is restoring a 79 sportster, but the shops around here don't work on them, and even through Harley Davidson, you can not get parts for a bike that old. We are looking for like a catalog that specializes in this year, or at least includes it, and i am not having much luck finding anything online. Please help us out, there is a lot of history in the bike we are restoring.

Howdy once again. currently deployed and looking at spending my hard earned cash on my bike. really want to slap on a red metal flake solo seat + the pillion by lepera. question is hows that going to work/does anybody make an adapter or am i going to have to fab it myself? also looking for some good very simplistic looking forward controls, want'em black and none too pricey, ideas on that one/where to find'em? never done an install for forward controls, how hard will that be/any hints or tips. trying to get every thing planned out now so i can put it all togather during my post deployment leave.

I just bought a new dirt bike tube and accidentaly put a hole in it with the tire iron putting it in. I know that they have patch kits out there, but I'm too cheap to buy one unless at last resort. I figure I already have enough rubber from an old tube to cut out a patch, and glue it on. I'm wondering if this will work good, and if so, what type of glue would I want to use?

My Honda Shadow fork seals have been leaking for several months. Usually I could only notice some light rings but now it's a little bit more. It's not terrible but just wondering if should be more concerned.
